In The Phone Booth Talking To Brownie In The Phone Booth Talking To Brownie
I played this tune for Brownie McGhee over the telephone from a pay phone booth somewhere on the road.
Amsterdam Blues Amsterdam Blues
When I first got to Amsterdam, just me and my guitar, the place gave me the Blues.
Pirates Pirates
When people go sailing, pirates are problem, even today. Unless of, course you are the pirate.
T-Bone is hard core blues. He travels the world with one thing in mind--finding a new audience for his blues, which is a mix of old blues and his own, unique, new blues.Band/artist history
Played here there and everywhere. Lots of years on the circuit in Northwestern US, then more in the Caribbean, ending up in Venezuela for several years. Now Europe, mostly Amsterdam.Have you performed in front of an audience?I'm currently playing all over Europe and I'll take bookings almost anywhere there is an audience.
Your musical influences
Leadbelly, Big Bill Broonzy and Blind Boy Fuller. When I met Brownie McGhee and he asked the same question, I didn't know that Brownie had learned from all these guys. It made us instant friends. Other influences include Muddy, Blind Blake, Elmore James and Robert Johnson.Anything else?
Brownie McGhee once told me, a long time ago: "We may be fighting a losin' battle, but we're having a lot of fun along the way." Some things never change.

Unique!
This is wonderful! I must say I always admired people who are able to handle a blues harp!
Sure sounds like Terry´s listening!

Talking to Brownie is great. Feels like sitting by the railroad tracks on a hot summer day.
Amsterdam gave me the creeps when I first set foot in that town. Like some bad vibes from the 60's that should've died went there instead to slowly decay.

Hi T-Bone,
It looks great. So, when are we going to jam?
