This might be the last band standing when it comes to the original punk bands.

I would attribute that to the song writting, especially lyrics.

Still got something to say.

Fun to strum, players. All written on accoustic.

Social Distortion ... Then and Now

Saw this guy live twice.. both times absolutely blew my mind.. don't know what he's up these days...\

Nice! I've caught him twice as well...once solo, and once with his bro. He's nuts. Often wondered when he'd come back through.

I hold these guys on a similar playing field. I've seen them once...catch them if you get a chance! (and yeah...thats just 2 guitars, no drums)

This gal was called "The Empress of The Blues"

And her stuff is timeless.

Nobody, and I mean NOBODY, has ever packed more innuendo into their music.

And she was recording in the 20's and 30's.

I'll have to post more than 1.

We'll start with some slow blues ... to hot to boogie tonight.

Coffee grinding, deep sea diving, .... wink

Bessie Smith doing "Empty Bed Blues"
