I recorded this one back in '88 on a '30 National Triolian with a bakelite neck.

From what I remember of the recording session all of the songs were done in one take as there was an impending thunderstorm about to hit. The engineer asked how fast can we record this album. I said about as fast as it takes me to play 14 songs.

That's some outstanding picking, Toby. I love boogie woogies. Thanks so much.

Very nice, Toby. I'm listening to a lot of original blues these days and could imagine your music being played on a street corner while cuttin' heads or at a Saturday night juke joint...

Thanks JR. I've also been listening to a great deal of original blues... for many years now. Tampa Red has always been a big influence on my slide playing.
