Say, it's West Side rather than West Coast blues, but I can highly recommend the latest CD from Eddie C. Campbell. Spider Eating Preacher comes out officially (from Delmark) tomorrow, but Bluebeat has had it in stock for a couple of weeks, and mine arrived on Saturday. This one in particular is loaded with Eddie's idiosyncratic originals; Fender reverb-y Jazzmaster tones; his distinctive playing -- and it features Lurrie Bell on three tracks (one on harmonica!). Great stuff. Did anyone happen to catch Eddie at Cadillac Zack's jam last week?

I caught him at Legends - had shamefully never heard of him prior to that. It was a killer show!

I'm sure! I miss the Blues in the Bay Area, especially at the Grand Dell and PHB. More videos to come?

So it doesn't get lost from the previous incarnation - does anyone have any recent news on how Lynwood Slim is getting along?

A drummer I work with is really good friends with Slim. He talked to him this past Saturday. He said Slim sounds good and things are hopeful. That's all I'll repeat cuz I don't want to speak out of turn. I really should call him myself. Maybe I could convince him to post here.
