Prentice says - Nostalgia. A feeling that I welcome when accompanied by good memories and feelings that rush in.
There are things that I miss dearly about the South. Sweet tea with lemonade, small town meat and three joints, the heat (with this mild San Diego summer), the natural sounds of summer nights, and good blues music. I mean the type of blues you experience in a hole in the wall "juke- joint" in the 80 degree summer night heat.
One artist that brings that memory back to me is Howlin' Wolf. He goes hard in his blues, he doesn't let you down. His slide technique will give you chills, and leave you wondering why the hell you've never really given blues a chance. Today, I share this experience with you in the form of "Spoonful".
It slides, it howls (as it should), it bleeds, and it screams. Everything that a solid Delta-Style Blues song should exhibit.
It helped my ass wake up from a "zombified" state in the shower this morning. It should do the same for you.
I love revisiting those nights when I had time to just slow down and take in the world as it surrounded me, with the best soundtrack anyone could ask for.
Oh, sweet nostalgia. All thanks to Howlin' Wolf - "Spoonful".
