[@todmaroosis7855]

no one has said anything in 6 years?well let me tell you son!these guys kick ass

[@Tacomadome24]

As a guy who grew up in Vancouver 70's-80's, I agree.

[@mikenedelcu617]

I got this from my parents. Amazing stuff.

[@jeffdoyle4703]

Bought this 25 years ago.. I still have it. One of those great finds. A friend had it on vinyl. I heard it once and started looking for it.

[@mbogucci1]

Next time sort comments by "newest first".

[@mikeduffy7419]

Saw them at a couple of Vagabonds parties!

[@watchmanfortruth4591]

Love the Powder Blues Band, good stuff.

[@bradraymond5925]

That's some top shelf, f-n groovy Bass playing going on right there..

[@davidsonfougere]

Wicked bass line.....!!

[@jeffreybarkin3177]

Powder Blues have some INCREDIBLE Songs! TOM LAVIN is an Amazing Songwriter, Producer and Guitarist too! If they're Touring, they're A MUST SEE, as their Energetic Performances are LEGENDARY!

[@shawnbooth3696]

Oh man, just movin' and groovin' again. Hotel Vancouver NDSS grad 1983 with this band...good times, my friends, good times

[@gillespoulin9574]

Probably the best song from this great band. Bravo from Quebec.

[@billyjoejim-bob423]

[@dwcoop5390]

Absolutely!! This album is a classic.

[@davidyoung8875]

[@creamteam499]

Thank you dad💙 such a Canadian gem, totally underated 😔 Great music so hard come by vinyls are so rare. 🇨🇦

[@TyCreates]

I listen to my dad play guitar every night for at least 11 years now, it means everything,when I hear that guitar ring ! Love you bud

[@schoolwalls4864]

I pulled my album collection from 20 years storage and came across the Uncut LP. What a great sound. Every song still sounds fresh.

[@00BillyTorontoBill]

concur.... playing the blues correctly ends up being timeless.

[@joejones9497]

Everything's good about this. One very important thing is the tempo. With out this exact, perfect, relaxed, solid tempo the rest wouldn't come across as good either.

[@blanewilliams5960]

WOW! I almost forgot how good these guys were! Ya the Commodore Ballroom!

[@lylenip]

yea love that little old ballroom

[@barbjustus462]

Ive been there too,Cheers

[@davidyoung8875]

greatest room ever

[@brianpetrini]

the best!!!!

[@graham2631]

I was a junior but the grad class of 80' in Shawnigan lake private school hired the Powder Blues to play at their grad party knowing the guys in that class it must have been one hell of a good time.

[@dingdongdaddyfromchi]

2 bands that night-Honey Bee opened for us. I got to meet John Fisher and Sharon Wadsworth that night. Another thing I recall was an Asian student who was yakking about Duke Errington (I am sure he was joking).

[@Blackfinity1]

Epic bass line.

[@JohnChandlerEdmonton]

Yes.

[@dingdongdaddyfromchi]

Bass line inspired by BB King's Crying Won't Help You which was also in the PB repertoire.

[@clintstraumfjord160]

I had a great time at The Williams Lake Stampede. I'm guessing 40 years ago

[@alexsabo8618]

Love this song...

[@bruceallrighty1]

THIS IS SOME GREAT BLUES , LOVE THE GUITAR RIFFS AND THE POWDER BLUES A GREAT HORN GROUP

[@reev64]

[@marinamarkarian6085]

I SAW THEM IN THE commodore...he was amazing

[@stewthebassman]

Totally agree. If I had been the one to record this bass line my life could be considered complete. It's perfect!

[@dingdongdaddyfromchi]

Thanks for the kind words! It did not complete my life but it did help me ease on down the road.

[@BILUP62]

[@dieterheinrich8377]

One of the greats! Great tone on the 335.

[@garrystadnyk3256]

[@SSGTA440]

I wonder what Dan Ackroyd thought of these guys?.....I know he is a massive fan of Downchild B.B.....

[@roquefortfiles]

@@SSGTA440 Well Tom Lavin is from Chicago. Has to be Elwood approved

[@ricksalt6860]

Hey Blues Nerds , is that Jack Lavin or Norm Fisher on bass ? Pretty damn funky .

[@beatmastert]

Jack Lavin.

[@jankilburn7281]

Coming to Kemptville

[@grahamlivingstone1068]

Hah, many fab nights at the Commodore, with HTGR the last song...I would always stick my head in this wall of bass bins they used to have there...Unreal...unfortunately on You Tube you can't get enough volume on this one...get the CD put it in your home or car stereo and crank it...Clean Loud and proud.....an amazing tune by the Powder Blues...If I had a band I would cover it..

[@dingdongdaddyfromchi]

An autobiographical song I wrote from Stave Lake Correctional work camp on a brown paper bag.

[@grahamlivingstone1068]

@@dingdongdaddyfromchi I have often wondered if the lyrics were directly personal, and now, hearing from the man himself, we know they were. Anyways, I must thank you, as it is a bonafide blues classic. My friends and i, man we loved your band...all the great horn players, Duris Maxwell and his micro 'kit', your right hand man Willie MacCaulder, brother on bass. You guys could (can!) really swing!

[@dingdongdaddyfromchi]

@@grahamlivingstone1068 This is Jack Lavin, the bassist and main song writer of Powder that you have been speaking to.

[@grahamlivingstone1068]

@@dingdongdaddyfromchi I did not realise, Jack...but i will guess you Lavin bros are just like all us other bros, kinda always competitive...anyways we love what you guys did, seriously, so great....and the Checkered Demons, wraparound shades! May hide my views!

[@Dominique1250]

you got a bass man!!!!!

[@shellyclause624]

Does anyone have the song called 'Your Daddy' by the powder blues ?

[@beatmastert]
