I stumbled over this high quality gem of him playing with Cream’s bassist Jack Bruce, frequent Hendrix collaborator, the drummer Buddy Miles and a horn section. A blistering “Mary Had A Little Lamb” followed by a grinding blues work out “My Time After Awhile”. ….enjoy

We learned about shape notes, road trips, sharing the same stage as Hendrix and The Monkees and who the Forest Gump of music is….wonderful stuff and thank you Kevin.
