Some blues for an overcast December morning...


Some readers may be familiar with this guitar player from New Orleans who has been called a "human jukebox", who has apparently claimed to have a repetoire of over 1,000 tunes - Snooks Eaglin. Here's a tune fans of Canada's Downchild are familiar with, Talk to your Daughter.

Here's Lipstick Traces. And one more, Red Beans.

Mr. Eaglin is comfortable playing in a number of styles, including Latin. He does not tour or record much these days but can occasionally be heard live in New Orleans.

It was sunny here but I still enjoyed the blues. I've never hear Snooks Eaglin before so it was great to be introduced to his music.
