A Jam

Hey Y’all,
Henry and I got together with a couple of cats a few nights ago and played til the cows came home. Chris “Tequila” was on drums and Franky two fingers on bass, and Henry was playing rhythm guitar and singin' country tunes. This was the first I met these cats and it was refreshing; they were two of the nicest people I’ve come along in a long, LONG time. We made a racket; a true jam session. But it is good for the soul.

God Bless Billy Powell


God bless you Billy Powell. You became a roadie for Lynyrd Skynyrd in 1970, eventually promoted to keyboardist and a full fledged member of the band. You were the consistent, solid, beautiful melody buttressing the line of guitar heros that took the spotlight before you. What a life; you played on some of the best Southern Rock recordings ever made, you survived a plane crash... a plane crash in McComb, Mississippi in 1977! And you were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2006. So many accomplishments for a young man taken from this earth at age 56. Rest in peace and tell Ronnie, Steve, Alan, Cassie and Dean we miss them all, and keep rockin’! God bless you Billy Powell. You brought me great happiness and contributed to the theme song of my life.

God speed!

Still Rockin'... Always!

The rumor of our demise has been greatly exaggerated; we have been in the studio! Tuesday night we put the finishing touches on the song titled, “Always”. Now our resident producer, Henry, as to work his magic and put it all together; beautiful, balanced. The moment it’s done we will post it on myspace.com/bleuvoodoo for our enjoyment! In the meantime we will continue to record tracks of our original music so we can share it with you.
