wish I could have seen him live in the 70s. as news spreads of bb king's passing, it's confusing how his notoriety is lamented with a quick goodbye. true musical artistry departed today.
jack daniels and bb king flowing
CHECK out the previous bb king posts mofos shared throughout the years.
confidence at the ceiling. anger level at a 10. sit outside at dusk and ease yourself into that orange fade to the west. drink in hand..... get ready for the rumble. amplify those profound feelings....shake your tail-feather.
how does that solo make you feel? listen to the increase of the amplifier at the end, the intensity and the distortion gives a off some kind of fucking feeling
//the heaviest glass you've ever picked up..... half way full with your favorite spirit.//
NEAT.
how can this willie nelson joint not give you a sense of fulfillment. bathe yourself in it and enjoy the rest of the day. let that amber current ease your mind slowly. you've earned it.
blitzed and shuffling into the bar at the end of the street.
the neon lights flickering through pockets of tobacco smoke floating in the low ceiling. walking past a small crowd towards the bar, an impregnating aroma of perspiration, cheap perfume, spilled alcohol and sawdust penetrate the airways.
this song begins to play on the louder than normal jukebox. Head bobbing to the bass line and the piano solo. moxie slowly begins flowing through the veins.
alcohol starts pouring and the first three drinks wash down quicker than your pupils expanding to the darkness.
attitude personified through rhythm and vocals eh?
muddy waters' voice hits like a 12 gauge right in the chest. aah! the drums hitting nerves ever so slightly. oooh... the bass line soothing surfacing itches. hhmmm... if we sent u back in time to be at this bar live with these motherfuckers....
cant pinpoint when i first heard this mellifluous riff; more than likely in a movie or a cartoon. when was the first time u heard the beat?
glass full of small batch whiskey. humid air filled with Lucky toasted smoke. the constellations shining faintly with a wavering light.
youll never miss with either the live or studio version of this song. THE GRILLE is spinning this shit just as the charcoal turns gray.
everyone wants for an upbeat blues song to be featured on this blog. this is as positive as it's ever going to get.
btw, what u think about mick jagger in this video? ha
straight outta cali Darondo is here, FINALLY! the grille has been waiting for this funk. lets do it together. feel it. sway front to back. enjoy it, pick up the glass and flame up.
the lunar maria and the dark innards try so hard to shine, yet it takes the life of a burning out star to show
their imperfections, or beauty, depending on how you choose to stare up.
dont look up for long hoping to capture peace because disappointment will settle and bring you back to earth.
although mofos bar and grille is proudly founded out of the blues genre and is a continuous advocate of it , from time to time we embrace unique sounds to those who appreciate the art of music.
this is one of those times. hooorah! USA.
on this edition of out of the blue, we'd like to put some shine on the one and only Hot 8 Brass Band from the Big Easy*. new orleans*. member. click play and turn it up loud so your ear drum hears the tuba playing. not too loud though, or the fucking trumpets will blow them out.
remind anyone of jr high? high-school? who would of thought that a blend of hip hop, jazz and funk would sound this good huh? i'm sorry but if these instruments don't make your head bob and body sway, you might wanna reassess how you first became a music enthusiast. there is so much to take from these guys' music.
for those unfamiliar with marvin gaye, sexual healing won two grammys in 83 and has been one of those joints played everywhere. chances are youve heard it in commercials, movies, porno or radio. the brass band's rendition is way different but it does it every bit of justice with their loud, vibrant color.
first heard this band on HBO's TREME. shame main stream america hasnt embraced it. doesnt that sound familiar. BLUES!
DIRECTIONS: play the bass loud. enjoy early in the binge. prepare urself a nawlins hurricane. double on that rum. no rum? three nice ales will get it done. ;)
