I've already for the most part retired from music and I don't perform anymore. This was a live recording made in a busy restaurant, I was actually the featured performer. In exchange for playing my music for one hour I could order anything from the menu. It wasn't money but it was a good deal. Besides making my own music I also specialized in learning old forgotten Blues songs that not many people know about. And I was somewhat of a scholar of Blues music. I still have a lot of knowledge of the lives of the first Blues musicians because I studied their lives before I tried learning their songs. But again, just another rough recording. I remember what was most difficult about this performance was it was entirely acoustic, meaning no microphone. So I'm actually not singing into a microphone. I was sitting in a corner of the restaurant with my guitar. Only my guitar and my voice, nothing else. How it's always been done I suppose. But extremely difficult to do. If you're singing into a microphone you've got it easy.
