Today we celebrated John Primer's 70th birthday and grooved on a new release from our pal Tinsley Ellis; this was a rocking, strong show, and it had to be...this show is dedicated to my running buddy and partner in crime, Michael (Albert) Dykes of Palmer, Indiana. For thirty-five years we raised hell and hi-jinx from Milwaukee to Macon and all points in between, laughing our asses off as we (usually) escaped just in the nick of time. He lost the good fight last week and passed on into the night...Albert, I will hold you in my heart forever; you are my Brother and I love you.
