Honestly folks, this is probably my favourite of the lot.

This is like diving back in history. The guy is 92 years old, but the touch and magic remain intact.
Listen to "How Long" or"Come Back Baby"...these blues are timeless.
Just like Honeyboy in 2003.

The band is, of course, just perfect. Bob Margolin must have found himself very much at ease in the couple of days he stayed in Bellinzona. He played this set, but also guested on Big Bill Morganfield and, as you'll see, Tom Principato's sets.

Hope you enjoy as well - next up Tom Principato
