...I think I know what you are talking about here. I noticed from the feginning that RL had a sound like no one else before. His chord patterns seemed to have the strangest sounds to them, and his rhythm for his songs always sounded different, it was just RL's groove, on how the bleus would sing to him, in his head I think.

@teleevangelist a mode is just a scale, ie the major scale, but you start from a different note, so it becomes a mode.

@robkneff that is AWESOME! i wish I could have met him!
-
RL is a very nice person! John Schooley do the shit on top of him, unbearable for me, sad
-
@ottlakerambler: True, and people from R.L.'s area refer to it as, "North Mississippi Hill Country Blues" or "Hill Country Blues". This is excellent. I just seen Cedric Burnside at the 2011 Juke Joint Fest in Clarksdale, Miss..

Met Cedric at Sydney airport yesterday, here in Australia with his duo Lightin' & Burnside what a nice guy he is. It was great to talk to him about his grandfather. He says that he still misses him even though its been 5 years since his death.

RL Burnside is such a great bluesman. However, in this video, John Schooley tries to overpower him, and just gets in the way. Schooley has none of the subtlety and elegance of Kenny Brown's slide guitar playing.

I gave R.L. the baseball cap he is wearing in this video. He gave me one of his. I had it made at a mall in Tempe,AZ. I gave it to him at a bar in Royal Oak, MI.

Many old time country tunes are modal, and when you play them, or even listen to them, they can put you into a trance. At least they tend to work for me. Lots of jazz is modal, too.
Well, listen to R.L. above. He played some of the best modal-type blues around. I was fortunate to see him play live, and let me tell you, the chord changes and the groove (not easy drumming, by the way!) can send you into the outer limits. Great, great stuff.
