Really Great Crowd All Night

Last night, Friday - July 31, 2015; at La Marina in Punta Banda was a really great crowd all night; every table taken, every barstool taken, and the outside patio full too. fun blues lovin' group. Rachel, Oscar and I had lots of fun. Oh yah, and before we played the restaurant served us a very nice blackened yellowtail tuna with the best organic summer green salad I have ever been served in Mexico. Great night all the way around.

Strung Junk Crossroad Guitar

July 9, 2015 - I (John) had the privilege of playing a original one of a kind "Crossroad" guitar. Crossroads being the place where famed blues guitarist "Robert Johnson" allegedly sold his soul to the devil...it was whereHWY 61 and HWY 49 cross in Clarksdale Mississippi. The guitar is an original "Strung Junk" guitar built by Steve Kinney and is made with a HWY 61 roadsign on one side, and a HWY 49 roadsign on the other and uses vintage pickups and components. Beautiful, great action and easy to play...Steve also makes a variety of other guitars, including some of my favorite which are made from vinatge cerca 1925 gas cans used in Model T fords and others. Steve will be at this years Baja Blues Fest in Rosarito displaying his original guitars...be sure to check them out. Thanks Steve!

Here is a little about Robert Johnson for the blues lay person wink emoticonhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Johnson
