Toby Walker - A Personal History of the Blues
Through humorous stories, soul stirring songs and a visual slide show, Toby Walker will take you on a tour of the deep south, where he personally learned the Blues from the old time musicians who lived, breathed and played this music. You'll see Etta Baker, who at 80 years of age not only was still a master of fingerpicking guitar but had just finished shingling the roof of her house!! The 68 year old Blues musician James 'Son' Thomas, who despite having a recent gunshot wound in his side was still managing to entertain two girlfriends less then half his age! These are but two of the many musicians who taught Toby the songs that he will play for you during this show. Additionally, Toby will be using numerous instruments such as a one string diddley bow, National Steel guitars, harmonicas and even a cigar box guitar.
