Congrats to Gary Clark Jr on his 2 Grammy nominations - Best Rock Song for Ain't Messin Around and Best Traditional R&B Performance for Please Come Home.
Trying to think of some of the British Blues bands that I listened to in the 60s.......everyone's heard of John Mayall and Clapton, but there were quite a lot around
Anyone remember Climax Chicago Blues Band (from Staffordshire !.....:D)

I rather like it. It features a few collaborations including a re-record of Trouble with David Coverdale.
No, but I once saw Micky Moody do a solo gig in a bikers pub many years ago.
Whitesnake were a better band when they were bluesy.
Definitely. You only need to compare albums like Lovehunter and Saints an Sinners with albums like 1987 and Slip of the Tongue to see that.

Joanne Shaw Taylor is playing @ Planet Rockstock in December, she's certainly on my "must see" list!!
I meant to post about that. Yes, I agree it is a very good album. Joanne Shaw Taylor just seems to get better as she goes on.
I hear Chantel McGregor is working on some new music as well
