You know how it is when you remember some thing from years past and know you wouldn't think of throwing it away so you must still have it. It bugs you until you get up, go to the closet and and start looking for it. A photo, a postcard. book, knickknacks, whatever. What would have optimistically been a ten minute job turns into an hour or more. Every other box you open has some other cool shit that you forgot about. That, figuratively, is what just happened. I was looking for Al Garcia and the Rhythm King's "exotic" and run into Augie Garcia, the "father of Minnesota rock". What the hell, I started down that path and started to look for an image and ran into one of Charlie Musslewhite that looked familiar, clicked and found myself right back here on my own blog. The Mussslewhite post had "Cha Cha the Blues" a baddass early instrumental. Then I scrolled down the page. It turned out to be all of the posts that had been posted here in May of 2016. Some of the links are dead, but half or more are functioning, and there's a lotta good shit. Here's just the first random handful that had me salivating again.
