Saturday Matinee – The Hoodoo Men, Spiderbait & The Pointer Sisters

The Hoodoo Men: Gerry Höller / guitar, Peter Samek / harp & vocals, and Wolfgang Leinweber / washboard. Great 1950s Chicago blues from Vienna.

In 2004, Australia’s Spiderbait did a bangup job covering Ram Jam’s cover of Leadbelly’s Black Betty.

The Pointer Sisters‘ classic soul/funk/gospel cover of Allen Toussaint‘s Yes We Can Can features the great Gaylord Birch on drums.

Passed a milestone of sorts this week, and I’m happy. See you on the porch tomorrow and I’ll tell you all about it for the 100th time.

The selections are excellent; gives Saturday morning a good launch.
Much happiness, peace, and calmness to you today.
Or maybe mayhem and chaos, it’s your pick.

Lotta good stuff out there. Some of the picks are deliberate, others I trip over while chasing ghosts. Thanks for the karma vibes.
