Hello SBW3
Sonny Boy III (host) 10:11:40 AM
Hello Brian!
Joe 10:23:51 AM
Hearing Gary Davis always feels like watching a sunbeam bursting out of the clouds..
Sonny Boy III (host) 10:24:06 AM

Holy love crackles ✨ morning, Sonny Boy III, Brian & Joe
Sonny Boy III (host) 10:30:33 AM
Morning Christine!
Brian D 10:34:29 AM
Slim !
Brian D 10:50:19 AM
Probably "OH-see". And btw Slim's last name is like "Gay-lard". Double 'L' in French doesn't get the "y" like sound unless there is an "i" after the "LL"
Sonny Boy III (host) 10:51:26 AM
I know that but always forget it! Any guess on Pejoe?
Brian D 10:53:00 AM
I'd go with "pay-joe"? Or "pedge-oh" maybe. Doesn't look like it would get the h sound on the j
Christine 🦉 10:55:03 AM
Loving the layering and harmonies on St. Louis Blues. 💗
Sonny Boy III (host) 10:56:36 AM
You may know the Hall Johnson choir from their work on Dumbo
Brian D 10:57:14 AM
Yeah this is powerful!
Brian D 11:06:26 AM
My uncle used to do that to us. Made us crack up. Put on big headphones that covered ears, try to read something off the page, then put a half second delay on the playback. Ha
Richard from Rocky Hill 11:07:53 AM
Ah, it's Mr. Fats Waller on the Mighty (Bluesy) Wurlitzer! To coin a phrase ... One never knows, do one? :-))
Sonny Boy III (host) 11:26:06 AM

Brian D 11:26:10 AM
Hooker 'n Heat ! Great lp
Brian D 11:26:36 AM

Wow the groove on this cut...
Sonny Boy III (host) 11:29:10 AM
Unbelievable
Brian D 11:31:50 AM
Yeah I love hearing JLH with a band like Canned Heat behind him. A whole new dynamic.
Christine 🦉 11:34:28 AM
Koko 💜 Taylor
Christine 🦉 11:48:09 AM
Be pedantic all you want, @SBW! I think you're right. That's a dumb and exclusive title.
Brian D 11:49:05 AM
Like the title Whiskey 'fore Breakfast. Vs. Whiskey for Breakfast. It's always 'before' breakfast anywhere anytime.... if one thinks about it tho
Sonny Boy III (host) 11:53:56 AM
Thanks Christine! If it's for breakfast can it still be 'fore breakfast?
Brian D 11:59:37 AM
'fore, for, during and after yes yes yes yes. All apply happily
Brian D 11:59:54 AM
Great show SBW3!
Sonny Boy III (host) 12:00:27 PM
Thanks Brian!
