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.
