Hi Mike,

Great to hear a Blues Jam on this forum and the BIAB piano and guitar soloists are great.

Again I would like to hear some vocals on this track. Here are some of the "bluesy" songs that are or becoming public domain in 2021:

See See Rider
St Louis Blues
Trouble In Mind
Nobody Know You When You Are Down And out
Ain't Nobody's Business If I Do

Best Regards
Nigel

Wow, I used to sing all of those songs. Are they now copyright free? Is there somewhere that one can find a full list of 'public domain' songs? (I guess I should just ask Google... ha ha)

Hi guys, appreciate all your comments. Chris, although Blues is not the most often listed in this forum we get some of it every now and then. I myself have posted quite a few of them over the years. I love the genre though.

Cheers

Hi J&B, thanks for the comments, you're way too generous in your assessment about me being a "master" I just thank God for the ability to do this in a way that pleases people.
Thanks to you too F.M.M. for your comment.

Exactly.

I love the blues also and you nailed the blues on this one.

This sounds like a live late night jam.
