This Week from The Flood Jam Sessions


This week's freebie from The 1937 Flood jam sessions features the guys kicking back on a comfortable old blues standard.

Pamela, The Flood's manager, occasionally reminds us that the weekly jam session is social as well as musical, a gathering of friends, regular listeners as well as players. We thought of that again as we listened to this track, which seems to capture the feeling of this particular evening. The end of a long, hot summer. Folks coming in happy … happy to be out of the heat, happy to see old friends again, happy to settle into this old Mississippi Sheiks tune that's as comfortable as a soft hat and a cool breeze… Hear the audio. (Incidentally, we're posting this week's podcast a day earlier than usual, because the Bowens are leaving on vacation tomorrow.)

In other news, be sure to check out our new web page at http://www.1937flood.com/pages/aa-guestvideos.html where you can see videos of guest performers at our weekly jam sessions. The videos feature Rob McNurlin, Phyllis Dale, Jesse Smith, Wendell Dobbs, Bill Hoke, Doug Imbrogno, Dale Jones, Rob and Judy Jones, Nerf Brown, Paul Martin, Jim Rumbaugh, Roger Samples, Kathy Castner, Randy Brown, Mike Smith and more. And watch this space -- we'll be regularly adding to this new spin on our ongoing digital jam session. Enjoy!

Finally, remember that the tunes from the jam sessions make up our weekly Flood podcasts. You can subscribe for free and get the music automatically delivered to your computer each Thursday. For details on that, click here.
