Now this is nice n clean and better than the vinyl I bought many years now but even the last digital version wasn’t as good as thus representing the good Don and band playing BLUES!

Don’s favourite genre . . . . . paying his dues and learning his chops!

I just needed some Thursday cheer! Meet me down in the bottom!?!
