I'm just discovering Eddie Taylor so I figured this would be a great subject for this weeks podcast. We have a fairly simple turnaround in an A blues this week but I think it will be really useful to play something that isn't a complete cliche...

Thanks!

I actually just ran it by Tom since he's a big Eddie Taylor fan and I was thinking that maybe I wasn't hearing the timbre of the notes right but apparently thats where he plays everything.
