In the early days of streaming music, we used to snag blues bands travelling between dates on the west coast and Chicago or New York or Toronto, and they'd play our club on a Monday or Tuesday or Wednesday night, maybe to only a dozen people, then the next day they'd go to the song writing centre at Buffalo Pound Provincial Park and record a few sides for the internet, then get on a plane next morning and head to their next show. These guys left their CD. It's a love song.

This Two Jews Blues album has been at the top of my playlist at work for 5 or 6 years...

This is sort of the deep end, but we'll see how it goes.

In 1970 I had a friend who's mom would let him take her red Ford Comet 202 out anytime, with a Texaco card in the glove compartment, and we'd pick up Brenda and Joy and go cruising, and this, and Little Green Bag, and all the other hits of the era were on the radio.

This is a local band that made it big covering a '67 Doors hit.

You're already going through enough without this, it's too bad. I had words with a homeless addict a week ago in front of work at 6am over him leaving trash around the building and he got all worked up and defensive (I thought the boxes he was going through may have come out of someone's car, so was interested). He left, but left the trash on the sidewalk and moved to a bin across the street and started throwing their trash around and making a mess, so I took his picture. 😀

Here's a type of horse race you may not have seen before - this isn't Ascot or the Kentucky Derby, it's Indian Relay, and saddles would just slow them down. If it works in the UK, the tiktok video puts you in the driver's seat. https://vt.tiktok.com/ZSHGNVAdCr3NH-056Pm/

This is an under-rated track.

There are a few stories there. Big Dave Mclean and Colin Munn (Colin James) were at the Winnipeg Folk Festival, and Muddy Waters was there, and he had an afternoon workshop. Dave said "Go ask if you can play with him" and Colin said "No way, that's Muddy Waters!" and Big Dave said "If you don't, you'll be kicking your ass for the rest of your life." I can't remember if it was Colin or Dave that told me that, but it doesn't matter.
