Hello all – Steve Hunter here, I’m the BestDamnBlues.com guy. The other day I got an email from Joshua Slamp, that is what appears just below. You need to check this out…it is EXCELLENT!

Dear Steve,
My name is Joshua Slamp; I am a Portland, Oregon Blues guitarist. I’ve recently put out a CD that I think you might find to your liking.
I’ve visited your site “BestDamnBlues.com” and think you will appreciate my latest CD, “Slide Into Christmas”; a collection of holiday classics adapted entirely on acoustic slide guitar, think a “Robert Johnson Christmas”.
I thought it would be fun to put a new spin on songs we all hold dear to our hearts with a Delta Blues twist.
If you like what you hear, you can buy it here

Happy Holidays! Joshua Slamp

This oldie was originally written during the depression (1931) by Yip Harburg, who was later blacklisted during the McCathy era.
Dr. John and Odetta don’t actually appear in this video, but the music is excellent…music that touches you.
I not overly fond of some of the visuals used in the video. To me Blues is about overcoming, not about defeat. Show me someone that’s willing to stand up after being knocked down. Leave the bullshit politics out of it.
We’re all in this together.
