Hmmm. We have something in common Fritz. What I'm good at listening to I'm  
not good at playing.

true dat!  Wonderful idiom  to play in.  Harder to get "right" than it 
seems, and the skills are  transferable to other genres.  Actually, my 
background as a player  is mostly from the RnB world, although my one and only album 
does not hint at  that at all.  What I'm good at writing is far different 
than what I'm  good at playing. The joys of schizophrenia!

Actually  Fritz, that is how it was with me.  Once I played with some blues 
guys I  found I enjoyed it more than I thought I would.  
Especially  since I was (am) such a progressive rock geek………..

I use to hate blues too,  until I had to play it.

At last,  someone who agrees with me. Blues is tedious in bulk as is reggae 
and anything  else musically locked into a very narrow set of  
parameters..........IMHO.

And I find Clapton dull so  there.
