After watching Basshappi's videos, it reminded me of a couple of songs the Hard Rock Cafe' in Honolulu video'd for my band, The Chames Gang. Feel blessed to be surrounded by three great players.... playing my 5-string ATK, that y'all may recall came by way of eBay Germany, through Jeroen....

Great job! Really liked the organ solo in the first tune, and I also dig how no-one is over-playing their parts. that's so easy to do in a blues band, especially as far as the lead instruments are concerned. I can't tell you how many times I've jammed the blues with harp players who JUST WON'T SHUT UP when the singer is doing their thing :)

Thanks Az, for the compliment, and observing what we do best... I'm very fortunate to play with unselfish players, who are never too busy in the way they play. There are no egos in this band, just total support, and it's a real privilege to play with such seasoned players!
