"Livin' in America" by Aztec Two Step live on Us Folk

America by Aztec Two Step  
(download)

October 24th brought some great shows to Portland, Maine. One being yet another visit from the unstoppable duo Aztec Two Step. Rex & Neal came into the studio and did a number of tracks leaving us with with this one just prior to the "Big Election". It's always great to catchup with these two veteran performers who have performed together over 3 & 1/2 decades sharing stages with a veritable who's who of folk & rock!

"C'mon in my Kitchen" David Jacobs-Strain (resonator guitar) live on Us Folk

C'mon In My Kitchen (Robt Johnson) by David Jacobs - Strain  
(download)

Friday November 7th 2008 the very adept guitarist David Jacobs-Strain came into the studio and played the guitar like no one I'd seen do it before ( & I've see me some guitar players) he was doing chiropractic "moves" on the resonator guitar ('looked like he was going to break it's back!) a very innovative player, the piece starts out a bit faint but sure catches up.

His rendition of the Robert Johnson classic recorded  @ WMPG studio on Us Folk. His flourishes were like I'd neverheard. I did shoot some video of it (remote camera) so soon I'll checking out that footage and  drop this sound onto it and post to vimeo & here. David has a new Album; Liar's Day he did with two veteran players Kenny Passarelli (Otis Taylor, Stephen Stills), who's also featured on the bass. They're joined by Joe Vitale on drums. David is one of those players who breathes new fire, blood & life into the blues and already @ an early age  many consider an American master.
