    I regularly use an Elf and One10. We play blues at average volume. I have a second identical cab if needed but it stays in my room for 19/20 gigs.

    New album by Americana’s first lady. £7 posted UK. Still shrinkwrapped. On Stories from a Rock N Roll Heart Williams teamed up with singer/songwriter and dear friend Jessie Malin, who co-wrote three tracks on the album and helped her flush out some of the melodies on guitar. Williams also looked to her longtime road manager, Travis Stephens, a veteran guitarist and songwriter, to bring her ideas to life as he co-wrote six songs on the album. The result is a melodic 10-song rock offering that is an inspiring testament to Williams’ fortitude and perseverance to continue to create under any circumstances. Stories from a Rock n Roll Heart kicks off with the gritty “Let’s Get The Band Back Together,” launching a musical journey that includes edgy rockers such as “Rock N Roll Heart” and “This Is Not My Town.” Williams pays tribute to rock legends Tom Petty (“Stolen Moments”) and Replacements’ co-founder Bob Stinson(“Hum’s Liquor”), to whom she dedicates the album. It would not be a Lucinda Williams album without pulling on the heartstrings. The moving “Last Call for the Truth,” the nostalgic and beautiful “Jukebox,” and the poignant album closer “Never GonnaFade Away” are Williams at her classic best. A true highlight of Stories from a Rock n Roll Heart is the epic “Where the Song Will Find Me,” a hauntingly beautiful piece, orchestrated and arranged by Lawrence Rothman. Throughout the song, Williams expresses that despite everything she has been through she will never stop seeking, and we are all the better for it.

    It’s saying they’re too big, when I havent had any problems in the past. Is there a limit you reach and you have to delete some from past posts?

    Beware ‘genre-blending’ 😩

    Funnily enough Pete, I feel the same way about Dreadlock as I do Mr Blue Sky! Heard it too often… BTW is it me, or is Dreadlock somewhat politically incorrect?

    Take a bass with you in case!

    Been to two gigs recently where the bass has been disrespected - in my view anyway. Billy Gibbons and his accomplice in his solo show both played guitars with some kind of built-in octaver that produced a mushy bass note. Dusty Hill would not have approved. And while Zack Starkey does a passable Moon, the bass role has been diminished since Pino left the Who. Really unbalances the music. Rant over!

    Otis Jay Blues Band played an assisted living complex in Bournemouth. All good clean fun, got some people dancing in their seats and/or on their feet. My Elf and Barefaced One10 kicked it in the outdoors, and I am still enjoying my recently acquired Flea bass. It almost plays itself!

    Have just seen a version of UB40 supporting the Who. You could not have murdered the song as thoroughly as they did their set!

    Great pic of you there Pete! The smile says it all… Funnily enough, when we saw you a couple of weeks ago we were sitting next to two of the drunkest people I have ever seen in a seated venue (Bournemouth). Perhaps you drive these folk to drink…😂 And, having driven back from the Who at Badminton late last night, I sympathise with your journey through the backroads. That nearly drove me to drink! 🍺
