not all 'real' blues are slow.

This closes the subject I think ...

Cocaine-fuelled or not, this track will always epitomize everything to me that is exciting about blues-drenched rock.

Yes, Dave, I meant to say blues-drenched stadium rock of course.

bb king, t bone walker, elmore james, hound dog taylor, albert collins, john mayall, freddie king, james cotton, paul butterfield, muddy waters all play up tempo material. please check them out at your substantial leisure. granted it's not a bunch of white guys playing through marshalls but it's still the blues. btw terry, people in glass vans shouldn't throw rocks.
