Bill Jones replied to Bill Jones's discussion 'Hubert Sumlin RIP Dec 4' in the group I Love Blues Music

Hey I just found an old cassette tape I made when Hubert sat in with my band, The Kingpins at Antone's in Sept 1983. A great set...better than I remember...wonder if I should release it??

Bill Jones replied to Bill Jones's discussion 'Where is the blues in Austin??' in the group Austin Blues Scene

Gig at airport went well, but it was weird to go thru all the security and xray machines, strip down of all my metal jewelery and shoes off...for a gig...and play at hushed down levels...very quiet...but I was told it sounded great out front. It was…

Howdy,,,,blues hounds!!

Some of you may know me (Hash Brown & Don O) ,,,most probably don't.....I have been "out of the scene" for many years. I experience an incredible case of "burn out" in the music scene about 12 years ago....you seasoned vets know what I am talking about!

However, time heals...or whatever time does....and recording a few new tunes in the studio has re-energized my passion for the blues.

I know you don't wanna read some blues pedigree ....so I'll spare you the eye rolling....
While witnessing the power of the FREDDIE KING show at the Armadillo World Headquarters in 1972 Austin, Texas,...I had the religious conversion to the blues.

I am proudly a support player and studied blues guitar styles for many years.

My first band was The Kingpins....featuring Paul Orta on harmonica, who I grew up with in Port Arthur, Tx, ......super player.
Then, I met and joined with Kathy Murray, who's band, Kathy and the Kilowatts, were already established on the Austin blues scene.
We married and Kathy has been my musical partner for 25 years.
If you wanna know more...here is her myspace:

At 3:55pm on August 21, 2009, Michael Schaefer said…: Oh you bet. Keep it coming. And we'd love to have more Austinites on here to talk about the Austin scene. This is a Texas Blues sight after all. :)

At 2:08pm on August 21, 2009, Michael Schaefer said…: Great man. I'm doing my best to drive more Texas Blues fans to the site so that stuff like this gets shared with a large audience. Seems a shame not to share this sort of history with more people.

On a different note ... are you going to start playing out again? Seems like you're getting the itch. :)

At 1:45pm on August 21, 2009, Michael Schaefer said…: Man, love the new batch of photos. You've got quite a collection. Thanks so much for sharing.

At 3:16am on August 12, 2009, Albert Sonsino said…: Hey Bill.,
Seems like we sort of been hanging around the same circles.

At 5:24pm on August 10, 2009, Michael Schaefer said…: Hey Bill, I'm listening to the new tune. Very nice stuff.

At 5:16pm on August 7, 2009, Rick Moore said…: I'm proud to say I know Don O. He's one of the load bearing columns of the Dallas Blues scene.

At 1:08pm on August 7, 2009, Brian Calway said…: I put up the playlists as suggestions for cool stuff to listen too.
I started doing it over on the north texas blues group, and then starting posting it over here about a month ago.

At 1:06pm on August 7, 2009, Brian Calway said…: Hey BA! great to see you on here. THat picbrings back memories! Go and ahead and post any pics you want!
