Personal Music Discoveries

The Safeway Waterfront Bluesfest is fun every year. This year especially since this time I went 3 days instead of 1. The first year I went the star of the day was Johnny Winter with great electric finger picking and slide. The year after it was Taj Mahal, but one of the smaller acts impressed me more(I think it was that year): Cedric Burnside and Lightnin' Malcolm. This duo of guitar and drums really knew how to play the Blues! Their CDs are both great(one is them together, the other is just cedric). Their tunes can energize you when you need it most. This year on the other hand I discovered even more. Singers such as Tail Dragger, Brother Yusef and Lisa Mills(I got both of their CDs signed), Marie Flower, Bobby Radcliff and others. Bobby Radcliff covered someone named Magic Sam who's few songs impressed me. Here is a song of his:
