I've got the blues fever, just like every year right after the festival is over, and I'm sitting here practicing my scales (something I never do, practice, ha!) and I decided to google Garrett, because I hadn't in a while.

And see, there's this Bo Diddley medley/cover/tribute thing he does at practically every show he plays, which is just so good, because it's that beat and you just always feel it... and anyways, upon googling and clicking, I found CBC radio 2 was streaming a live Garrett show, which had that song, and I promptly ripped it and now I'm going to keep it secret and keep it safe because this mp3 is my new precious.

Except, I'm gonna share it all with youuu, because I have faith that a good chunk of you dig the blues, or at the very least can't stay away from that infectious Bo Diddley beat.

Diddley Beat (live)- Garrett Mason





(PS: I have whole albums if you guys are interested, because honestly. He does some good shit.)

My little brother is graduating today. Second one of the bunch. I'm so proud and sad, he grew up so fast. ♥
