The Thrill Is Gone

from Colorado Blues Hosted by Colorado Blues

30 years ago, I met Paulo Mathedi - he was a trade student from Sao Paulo, Brazil. He came into Colfax Music, Denver (Monaco and Evans) to look at Guitars. His English was pretty much non-existent yet he could play guitar -- as we muddled through linguistically - we eventually played guitar together - no problem. Well, we became great friends, and this past weekend, Paulo sat in with Ruth Israel & The Band, Once Removed to give tribute to my inspiration, Mr. B.B. King. We Love You B B On Guitar, Paulo Mathedi, Caleb McAllister ( by the way, Caleb Graduates Conifer High this month with a 4.0 !! Good Job Caleb) and me - Patrick McAllister (56) - I saw B B when I was 9 at Ravinia Park, IL. --- I was hooked right then and there !! Thank You Mr. B.B. King for your Music and your Passion You are my Inspiration..

TomCattt Thomas Patton From the beginning music has prowled with accordion lessons at a young age, followed by sax, blues harp and more recently piano, vocals, song writing and recording. Thomas Patton (AKA TomCattt) credits his mother for his stage name "TomCattt” as she was big on nick names for those she held close to her heart. TomCattt's music is best described as easy listening and sometimes retro, yet with a contemporary mix and feel. Accompanied by the creative tracks of a number of gifted musicians, his first album Hiiyaaaaaaaaaaa inspires imagination and finds a way to impress with a unique vocal sound, compelling harmony and gripping melody. The lyrical content is in fact a living reflection of this artists emotional journey that followed leaving love, finding a new love only to lose love once again. Hiiyaaaaaaaaaaa was released on June 1st, 2013 and all are invited to Soundcloud, Bandcamp, ReverbNation and Cdbaby where "A Question" is free download and to enjoy TomCattt's website tomcattt.com. Blues – Swamp Jacuzzi Biggie Boutte An intoxicating wild mind trip through the past, present, and future realms of rock n roll. A euphoric cocktail of spiritual awakening through fuzz and focal points. A new dawn taking the past into the future and the future towards comforts unknown. A yesterday's tomorrow. That time is now. So free your soul and expand your mind. The key to the gates is through this sonic elixir. Administer the medicine, fasten your seatbelts and hold on tight. We have a long journey ahead. But if you want to rock it, you know it's in the pocket. You need Electrophonic Tonic. It could save your soul. Ya dig?
