Xyr...@ Anonymous, I can tell you I'm not Greek. Xyros is a variation on the spelling of the Greek island Syros that I started using in the late 80's. At the time I didn't know it was also a Greek name. So not Greek but using a Greek name.Xyroshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17951807869475591637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5564093350797322784.post-71402829190739183672021-10-09T20:52:06.648+02:002021-10-09T20:52:06.648+02:00ποιος είσαι φίλε μουποιος είσαι φίλε μουAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5564093350797322784.post-37699594543184530822021-08-22T23:42:27.924+02:002021-08-22T23:42:27.924+02:00Love these rare small press albums.

I remember the gigs well as we (other musicians like myself) used to come just to watch and listen to Hubert Sumlin play guitar with the band. None of us really could stand Eddie as he did everything he could to play down Hubert's profile and blow his own out of proportion. I remember seeing him walk up to Hubert's amp and turn down/off the treble settings just to 'push' him into the background. Hubert was so humble and nice, he never fought it ... I was always hoping he'd come back with his own band but he never did. Eventually he left I'm sure. Just saw Eddie playing sax and a version of himself in that movie from a couple of years ago, The Honeydripper that stars Danny Glover as a Southern Juke Joint owner. Not a bad movie...a little lightweight, but okay and there's Eddie playing away. I still haven't forgiven him for how he treated Hubert, though, even after thrity years.Duncanmusichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13851644219536584126noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5564093350797322784.post-72745352491317468332008-10-07T02:10:00.000+02:002008-10-07T02:10:00.000+02:00...now normally blues sax don't really shake my bo......now normally blues sax don't really shake my bottle of turpentine...nor does a piano that sometimes sounds like a harpsichord...but this is pretty all right, and you know what, sometimes that's just good enough...thanks bags...goinsidemyheadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11864907588255220682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5564093350797322784.post-15379250345919331282008-10-05T08:19:00.000+02:002008-10-05T08:19:00.000+02:00thanks for this LPthanks for this LPAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
