Curtis Blake and Greasy Gravy

Found a great video of a under recognized Minnesota blues band that features none other than harmonica master Curtis Blake with his band Greasy Gravy. Definitely worth checking out. Good to see these guys gigging around town again.

The band features Jerry Maynard on Guitar, Greg Schuck on Drums, John Heck on Bass and Harmonica Curtis Blake.

You’re Only As Good As Your Gig Calendar

Sorry for the lack of updates to the TwinCitiesBlues.com Gig Calendar but my time has been very limited these days due to “day job” duties. Hopefully help is on the way with the assistance of a fellow TwinCitiesBlues.com visitor and blues buddy, but until then, postings to the Gig Calendar will be limited.

Here are a few videos that are worth checking out…

Here are a few YouTube videos that are worth checking out…

Rare Lynwood Slim Video

Check out this video of Lynwood Slim playing the Duke Ellington classic “Do Nothing (’till You Hear From Me)”. Anyone know the names of the musicians in this video which was recorded at McCready’s Bar in Minneapolis? Some of the Lamont Cranston Band?
