The Pandemic Blues

2021-03-12T13:56:21Z

This is the longest blues song ever.

But it is now at the point where, like the old joke "The Aristocrats," sometimes I just start cracking up.

Got the winter blues?

Why does January feel as if it lasts for three months?

But this song always wakes me up

Live music streaming from New Orleans

2021-01-05T21:07:43Z

New Orleans music is still happening, and a lot of these live streaming events are happening outside, so you can even get a bit of that New Orleans scenery and atmosphere. If you're using the Microsoft Soundscape app like me, you can even virtually walk around and mark your favorite places to listen to live music.

Horror review: The Case of Evil (2014)

2016-10-02T14:14:22Z

The Case of Evil (Dirs. Neal Hallford, Jana Hallford, 2014)

This short is only ten minutes long but those are ten minutes of retro horror delight, especially for anyone who loves those blues songs about guitar players and the Devil.

The acting starts off a little stiff until things really start rolling, but the script is tight and the dialogue tells a story in a few simple words, just like the best blues songs.

I saw this for free with my Amazon prime membership, but I'm not sure how else one can find this short.
