My girlfriend got herself a piano during the year, she had not played in years, and has taken a definite shine to playing some blues, Bessie Smith was first order of the day.
I did get a bit of a chuckle recently when she went to learn 'Weary Blues' from a Madeleine Peyroux album, little realising that it was originally a Hank Williams song. Lets just say she tolerates my old time/country/bluegrass interest but she don't endorse it and the horrified look on her face when i played her the original William's version was beyond price... still she is continuing to learn it so i am looking forward to having some nice little jams when we get some common material. In the meantime i'm gonna continue the bluegrass indoctrination by slipping some small speakers in her pillows for when she sleeps, she'll be rattling off Bluegrass Breakdown before the months out i tells ya :D On Jun 14, 1:24 am, Steve Cantrell <[email protected]> wrote: > > Also, my wife has recently taken up guitar.
