youtu.be/Cem41bAOCwo Rockabilly left turn! Premiering now, a chat about Joey Long on the Sonny Fisher Starday sides. It seems to me that any vintage blues fan will love these if you haven't heard them. Joey was a well known blues player from SE TX.

The Banana Peel in the small town Ruiselede, Belgium, is a communally run not for profit blues club since 1966. Eddie Boyd, Sunnyland Slim are some of the early performers. A local artist hangs these portraits in the dressing room, I was gifted a copy. It's a wonderful venue!
