Saturday Matinee – Keb’ Mo’, The Mavericks, Skatune Network, & Gwen Stefani / No Doubt
Keb’ Mo’ breaks it down and throws it back.
The Mavericks are Raúl Malo / vocals, guitar; Paul Deakin / drums; Jerry Dale McFadden / keyboards, vocals; Eddie Perez / guitar. Early jump blues piano style that morphed into ska.
One man ska band JER / Skatune Network covers Otis Redding‘s cover of Charles Brown‘s 1947 hit. The guy’s amazing.
In 2003,Gwen Stefani & No Doubt spread the Oi of the season with their cover of the Vandals.
Lemme see. Christmas Eve isn’t until Tuesday, so I still have tomorrow’s porch time to make a list and check it twice, and Monday for shopping. No sweat. Stop by tomorrow and we’ll compare lists.

Saturday Matinee – Pee Wee’s Playhouse, Dropkick Murphys, Joe Bonamassa & Chris Rea
Pee Wee Herman’s Christmas Special (1988) is kind of self explanatory. Watch the entire show if you really have to.
Dropkick Murphys and “family”.
Joe Bonamassa‘s Merry Christmas Blues album (2013) is free for download (I think).
Except for a hit in 1978, songwriter and perfomer Chris Rea is virtually unknown in the US (having never toured here). Despite long term medical problems, he’s enjoyed a successful career in the UK.
Have a Merry Christmas if I don’t see you, stay safe in your travels, and we’ll be back here tomorrow to trash talk you.
