"Stink" rocked my world in 72 ( I caught on a little late as I was only 15 yrs old )when I disscovered. MMM.... Joes solo albums for the next 7 years had me mess more eyesd .. I guess I was just "Joed" also , we stil play him out west here lots on the "Overnight" show on CKUA .... jus ask my fav DJ baba ...... keep on truckin' Joe .
McKenna Mendolson Mainline- you have no idea the influence you have given me, along with my dad... we used to jam with STINK cranked up on the turntable, me on my Ric and dad on piano... oh the good times :)
Whoever's idea it was to get Joe to do this should be awarded the Order Of Canada when Joe receives his!! All the best gentleman...! Been a fan every since "STINK" was too young to see you in a bar so I came to see you at Grumble's Coffee House when you did a solo thing there.
thankyou AIJoynes!, Joe was ready to move out of Toronto to the woods up north of Huntsville back in 2000. I wanted to document him and his place (on Howland ave). We did it on February 29 - a leap year. He played the song right through and once again doing the solos.
Hey Joe, loved y'all with McKenna this was one of my favorite songs. You guys visited Sudbury a lot and had a big influence in my blues career lol for what it was but yer up there with the best blues guys as far as I'm concerned.
Hey Joe, always fondly remembered back in the day. I was just another hippie kid who was caught up in the baubles of the 60s. Thanks for the coffee and the discount on one of your belts at the Colonade! Love the stylin licks.
Hey dude, sweet tune. We're moving up to Emsdale too! We love it already. Ever play around there?...check our video of the property we move onto in aug!
Hey, Joe.....happy to see you haven't lost ALL those marbles! Always loved your stuff.....still have all your LPs. Maybe I'll pop in 1 day and have you autograph them! Before you decide to pack it in! LOL!
Ah, Caps-lock reversal syndrome - so many people suffer from it in silence, passers-by shun them in the street & think to themselves "he hasn't seen the light..." There should be a support group!
wish there was more stuff from joe-he's a hero to many still --from the Penthouse in Scarborough-I can still feel the floor shaking when he stomped on the floor---an original beside Stompin Tom Conners-the toughest bar in the city--beside the knobby!!
I saw JOe at the groaning board in toronto around the middle of the 70x
