GREY 'REWORKS' SEMINAL SON HOUSE DELTA BLUES CLASSIC!! ..read more
News has come through that Grey will be repositioning the seminal Son House song 'Death Letter Blues' into a new framework called 'Phone Call Blues', etched from a real time phone call on xmas day 1990.
Essential for all Blues people to get down to the gig and see this important new manoeuvre. The piece will be in C and will include one of Grey's favourtie moves of starting the lyric of the song on the 4 chord. Also, watch out for the 1/2 bar tag that lengthens the 1 chord lead into the 4 and 5 chord. This move is tricky and sorts out the men from the boys. The beat is going to be a voodoo 2/4 time that Grey and Steve have been working hard on.
I had a phone call this morning, what you reckon my phone call said?
I had a phone call this morning, what you reckon my phone call said?
It said 'hurry, hurry, hurry' Grey, your mother is dead
Well I packed up my suitcase, stumbled down the road
Well I packed up my suitcase, move on down the road
Then I saw her right there, lying on the cooling board
Yes I walked over slowly, looked down on her face
Yes I walked over slowly, looked down on her face
I said 'goodbye sweetheart, I'll see you on judgment day'
Well I didn't feel so bad, till the evening sun went down
No I didn't feel so bad till the Good Lord's sun went down
Then I didn't have nobody to throw my arms around.
