Delbert.
Gloomy day outside, but I managed to do a ground pound. I wound up thinking about politics. Feh!
Hell, I’m still basking in the Post-Christmas Mellow, so rather than thinking about politics and winding up with frosted stindeens, I’d prefer to chill out and listen to Delbert McClinton.
Every time Delbert sings, it’s a farookin’ masterpiece.
That is all.
Good choice. Everything he does is solid gold.

Thanks for the tip. This was the first time I’ve heard of him, but I like what I hear.

hey there, I see a lot of his albums on Amazon for cheap, any recommendations? Personally I’ve never heard of Delbert before but Lee is right, it sticks — I could listen to more of this.

You can’t buy a bad Delbert CD. He defies classification, as he sings hell out of rock, country and add-kicking blues tunes. I would start off with this one. $6.99 at Amazon. Holy Crap!

Spent the day with Coltrane, Miles, Oscar Peterson and the ilk.

I’ve had the pleasure of seeing Delbert live in Tulsa twice. He always puts on a good show.

More horns? More cowbell, if you ask me.
