@ hardTo SignUp Here....no, I don't mean practice. The blues comes from the soul. You can practice all you want, but just like soul food, singin' the blues comes from deep down. I may not be a musician, but I am a southern girl, and I know blues when I hear it. He's got it!
I'm not a musician and could not fathom the amount of talent it would take to play and sound like that, but I'm totally blown away by this piece. You're amazing! thank you so much for this.
I also used to hang with Dave 30 years ago in Sydney. How are ya Dave. Still look the same. Love the version. I remember the good old days at the Roxy at Taylor square. Steve Dorahy.
I remember seeing Gypsy Dave Smith at the Jumpin Hot Club over 15yrs ago up in Newcastle.....he was ace...bought a cassette (yes no cds then) of his right after the gig...its since become a pile of tape.
Does anyone know where you can buy Cds of the guy and if he has any gig dates.
Exiled in south wales now n missing the north east.
Real nice version. I love how clean and tight everything is. Interesting slide work. Great string popin. Very pleasant to listen to. Thanks for posting and thank you Gypsy Dave.
he is a master...he was when first saw him nearly thirty years ago and i wish him the best...

Gypst Dave is not british , he's lived here long enough to be considered british, but he's Austrailian as the amber necter!

This is really fine! A good, talented performer. You can just picture Leadbelly.
