Straight ahead stone city electric blues for an old friend who used to spend hours spinning BB King and Mike Bloomfield records for me. Recorded back sometime at the end of 2006 on old analog equipment
Kirk, my name is Don Powers, I live in weston, on 5th st. Long time ago I stopped out side your house because I saw you playing through you window. We talked for a while then one other day you let me come in and I was going to try to jam with you , a mistake as I am no where near the musician you are. I just stumbled on to your web site.

Just make it home, please…
First song I made after being lazy about making music for a few years. The whole thing took me a few weeks. I feel it should be noted that the song quotes a short passage from Nine Inch Nails' "Eraser." I'm not a very creative lyricist.
