Blues in trouble song?

[stevie2sticks]

Hi Michael

looking back through Pockie recordings with a view of picking up new songs.

I've found one you did in Open G, that starts
"well Blues in Trouble". 

Just wondered Michael who did the origenal song and it's title. (Can't find it in searches). 

Any help will be appreciated.
thanks

Hi Steve

If it is what I think it is, it comes from a live bootleg recording. The song is called Blues & Trouble and I have just emailed an mp3 of it to you.

If it is not that, let me know and I will see what else I can find.

This is the same song, but with a very different treatment. It is from one of my favourite albums, After The Rain.



Stay safe

Shine On
Michael

Thank you Michael.

I’m bring this to my top of my slide learn list. The version you played
at Pockie is super chilled.

This one is pretty good as well.

Thank you again
Stay well

Steve,

I have just realised what the song is that you asked about. It is a mix of two Muddy Waters songs "Train Fare Home" and "Sittin' Here Drinkin'"





These are two of Muddy's earliest electric guitar recordings from 1948. Recorded for Aristocrat.

Let me know if these are the two songs we covered a couple or few years ago at the Pocklington weekend?
