Just wow. Your learning log is so inspiring and our tastes are mostly similar. I also love the music of Brownie McGhee and Sonny Terry, Eric Bibb, Slim Harpo, and the pre-war fingerstyle blues. I am still really far from your level though. Not sure I am ready to try playing with other people. However, this harmonica club seems to be such a great thing to participate in that I am a bit jealous
But hey, you are in Oxford. There must simply be a place where you could meet some folk to play with. Just ask around! Playing with other folk does make the experience so much more rewarding!
You learn faster too that way - from a really glacial pace to something like a slow walk.
Tomorrow we’ll premiere two new songs in the club, Death don’t have no mercy from Gary Davis, and Going up the Country. I do hope we’ll manage.
I hear the rumor is that Justin is readying a course on Blues - maybe something to look into as well in the future.
