And now, on "I Love Blues Guitar," we're going to crank up the energy a bit with a track from a truly electric live performance. Next up is "Bullfrog Blues," played by the incomparable Jimmy Thackery. This particular rendition was captured live at Sean Carney's Blues For A Cure 2009, held at the Vonn Jazz Lounge in Columbus, Ohio, on December 11, 2009.
Jimmy Thackery, a guitarist known for his blistering skills and high-octane performances, is a giant in the world of blues-rock. His style is a powerful fusion of traditional blues with a hard-rocking edge, creating a sound that's both explosive and deeply rooted in blues tradition. "Bullfrog Blues" is a perfect example of this, showcasing Thackery's virtuoso guitar work and his ability to electrify an audience.
Speaking of electrifying, let me share a funny story about small blues clubs, where magic often happens. There was once a club so small, the band had to start playing before everyone could fit in. So the guitarist, in true blues fashion, stepped outside and played his solo from the sidewalk, drawing in passersby. It turned into an impromptu street performance, with the audience inside and out, all grooving to the blues. That's the spirit of the blues – it knows no bounds and always finds a way to bring people together!
So, get ready for some foot-stomping, heart-pumping blues-rock with Jimmy Thackery's "Bullfrog Blues," right here on "I Love Blues Guitar."
