Saturday Matinee – Mike Zito & Albert Castiglia, John Primer & Billy Branch, and Mad Guz & the Mojos

Guitar rippers Mike Zito and Albert Castiglia took their powerhouse bands, crammed them together to form Blood Brothers.

John Primer with Billy Branch (harp), Johnny Iguana (keyboards), Felton Crews (bass), Billy Flynn (rhythm guitar). Unfortunately the drummer got no credit.

Mad Guz & the Mojos is a heavy rockabilly-influenced blues band from somewhere in Germany, and consists of Mad Guz (vocals, sax, guitar), Isi Mojo (double bass), Tim Mojo (drums, vocals) and Spike Mojo (lead guitar, vocals).

Not sure if hilarious, laughable or pitiful is the best way to describe the feces flying around on social media and elsewhere. Maybe we could schedule a National Day of STFU and STFD. Everyone to the time out chair.
Except for us porch sitters. See you tomorrow, porchheads.

“Surfer Mary Ann Hawkins. The photo was taken by famous surf photographer Doc Ball in Long Beach. The date usually given for the photo is 1938 and there was a flood in Los Angeles area in 1938; however, the license plate on that 1935 Ford looks like a 1936 California plate.”

Le Chanky-Chank Français, BeauSoleil (1991) “By capitalizing the “S” in the middle of BeauSoleil, the Cajun band’s name becomes beautiful sun, but the truth is the band is named for an Acadian resistance fighter. Joseph Broussard Beausoleil fought the English in the mid-1700s.”

Saturday Matinee – Ndlovu Youth Choir, Giles Robson and JW-Jones w/ Paul Pigat & Jack de Keyzer

Ndlovu Youth Choir: “An eleven-year journey has seen an after-school programme for orphaned and vulnerable children, started by the Ndlovu Care Group, transform into an international recording and touring career. Participation does not only instil values of togetherness, a work ethic and a sense of responsibility, but it develops self-discipline, self-confidence, and leadership.” [h/t Miss Cellanea]

British harp wizard Giles Robson is one of only three UK blues artists to win a coveted Blues Music Award in Memphis. The other two are Eric Clapton and Peter Green.

“This is an amazing blues band.” – Elwood Blues
JW-Jones, with Paul Pigat and Jack de Keyzer, crack open a can of Magic Sam boogie and head for the coast. Backing them is Chris Nordquist on drums, Julian Fauth / keyboards and Suzie Vinnick / bass.


Disturbing events the past few days. Two little girls lost their daddy, and a young woman has to tell them that their daddy isn’t coming home.
Charlie Kirk expressed his opinions peacefully, rarely raising his voice in anger, and for that he was assassinated. That some soulless wretches jeer and applaud the tragedy makes me want to vomit.

The porch will be closed tomorrow…
