The Little Walter harp show at the Belly Up was very cool. I am having problems with my right foot, plantar fasciitis I think and the pain became unbearable and I had to split halfway through. School night. Saw three or four of the harmonica acts, Hummel, Curtis and my favorite, Sugar Ray from Providence. John Mayall played the keys.
The highlight of the show was watching Charlie Baty on guitar backing everybody up. Late of Little Charlie and the Nightcats. A Birmingham native, the guy looks like he should be slogging steel in Pittsburgh, a dude you might find down at the thursday bowling league. I watched him play a 175 goldtop but heard he switched later to the Strat.
If you get a chance to see this guy perform, definitely check him out. Not flashy but understatedly brilliant.
