Hey GDP, take a 2:45 break with the immortal Slim Gaillard.
Nothing like some Slim to gladden the soul a little:

1. I saw the Taj Mahal Trio at Yoshi's in Oakland on Thursday.
He did a tribute to Slim, slid 4 or 5 songs together.

Small world, eh, Jeff?

2. That must have been a treat.
Reason #1239 to love Taj Mahal...!

3. Man, he hasn't lost a thing.
If anything, he is still getting better.

His Take a Giant Step/de Ol' Folks at Home album changed the way I looked at music. I listened to that stuff and decided to slur it all together, make it mine.

4. Saw a recent clip of him on TV
and you're right - he sounds better than ever.

I say we take Tenet's Medal of Freedom back and give it to Taj Mahal.
