Garden Treats

28th July 2024 

Being so lucky to be in this thing called "music" gives us not so much at all in the way of money or other material things, but so much in the way of times that feel so special, one way or another.. Well today and tonight surpassed even that.

So much of modern music, especially those derivatives of rock, blues, metal, country, indie and so on and all the sub-genres derive from that so-evolutionary time of the 1960s. Today we were part of this event for which the highlight wasn't just derived from that time, but was a fundamental part of that time, because today we were one of many acts brought in by the wonderfully kind Martin & Elaine who fed and watered us all day as well as giving us the incredible treat of mixing with and watching the main booking, the legendary Barry Melton and full band. These folk aren't a derivative, they were there, they did it, they are the source, they are the real thing.

What a privilege - thank you!
