Got a Robert Johnson breakthrough yesterday. Just playing outside in the backyard, messing with 32 20 Blues. Then I started mixing in some pentatonic improv, and it began to expand. I felt that here was the way to play RJ without singing. So now my interest in blues is back, and especially in RJ. I ordered an "easy play" book of his songs on Amazon, along with a book of Rev. Gary Davis rags and one on fingerstyle Beatles.
So, workin' on RJ and 32 20 blues, and ready to add blues and ragtime into a set list.
