This song was inspired by a old guy who was a regular at my old residency, who always turned up at 8:30 without fail, often asking for songs by blues artists well known and less well known but in a knowledgeable manner. We imagined that maybe he was an old player fallen on harder times in his old age no longer able to play...

Play me some blues
Take me back
To the tumblin and rough
Of those days in the light
When I danced with the devil
And stayed up all night
Play me some blues
Take me back
To the music inside me
Coming out in the strings
With my fingers on fire
Wild living things
Play me some blues
Blues for life
For the triumph and the glory
For the losses and regrets
For the rhythm of the drums
And the feeling of the frets
Play me some blues
Help me out
Sooth the demons that wait
Call me back to the floor
Play it for me
Cos I can’t play anymore
