RPM 2011 - my first track recorded and the opening track for the CD

I should have said something before now - but can I just say that I love this tune, as does my boy who laughs everytime I play it and then sings it for the rest of the day. Good times.
Having fun (finally) playing around with the riff for this tune by Howling Wolf, which is based on a song by Charley Patton and another by the Mississippi Sheiks and another by Tommy Johnson and so on ...

Thanks, Bethan, kirk. it was quite a different writing process for me, and you're right, kirk, a change of pace as well. Perhaps I was just enjoying the last of the hurricane blowing out!
The Polka is thought to have originated in eastern europe by the Czechs. The people of west kerry in Ireland took the polka into their heart and are renowned for their own polkas. The two polkas in this recording are known to me as "John Ryans…

Okay I need to say a few things. Please read before listening!
I did not do the 24 hour challenge but I did try and hang around in the chatroom as much as possible with Glu, SisterS, and ChrisM while they battled through it.
