I saw him at the Indy Jazz Festival back in the late 90's on one of the stages....I've got quite a few of his CD's...Love Memphis in the Meantime...

I try to go see him whenever he's in town. I've seen him twice with Lyle Lovett - just the two of them on stage, and other time when Joe Ely joined them. Great shows. It was like watching some buddies just sitting around, telling jokes and stories and playing acoustic guitars. He's written a lot of songs that other artists made popular. "Angel Eyes", "Are You Ready for a Thing Called Love", the theme song from the movie "Michael" (Through Your Hands). He's one of my favorites.
I've seen Bobby Bland, BB King, Buddy Guy, Kenny Wayne Shepherd, Lonnie Brooks, and Ronnie Baker Brooks live at various places around NWI.
Oh yeah, Big Mama owns that song. And check out a very young Buddy Guy backing her up!Big Mama Thornton tearing up Hound Dog...Elvis owed this woman...
