Continuing to celebrate the life of my dear departed friend, I am presenting some of the original versions of songs he loved to listen to and sing.
Smokestack Lightnin’. Howlin’ Wolf.
Still Got The Blues. Gary Moore.
She’s 19 Years Old. Muddy Waters.
Bring It on Home. Sonny Boy Williamson.
Boom Boom. John Lee Hooker.
I am not a religious man. But if there is a Heaven, I like to think that Brian is there now, enjoying a raucous jam session with Howlin’, Gary, Muddy, Sonny Boy, and John Lee.

I forgot all about Gary Moore. Thanks for the reminder. What a talent!

How could you forget Gary? 🙂
Brian did a great version, but Gary was a legend.
Best wishes, Pete.

Great choices – a bit of Joe Bonamassa would have fitted in well as well as Peter Green.

Thanks for your suggestions. I could have filled up ten posts or more with the music Brian loved to listen to and sing, but had to cut it down to some of ‘the greats’. 🙂
Best wishes, Pete.

This is another lovely memorial to Brian Pete. I don’t believe in a Heaven with a long-bearded god and choirs of haloed angels, but I do believe in a higher power and a place where souls go when they’ve left here. I have a feeling your friend is in a better place and hopefully enjoying some jam sessions.
