I was deep in despond  Cry over the enforced cancellation of the Brussels trip (to meet the other KaraMoonies) when my Elderly Brother, Wyatt, sent me a *lame-erick* about missing a train just to cheer me up.  Cheesy
It worked to the extent that I made a *one-take recording* of it.
I sent it back to him to see if he would add some harmonica. He wasn't able to tackle that so, instead, he did some cleaning up of my rush-job recording.
This is the result.

Eurostar Blues.

James, Eurostar Blues is super.  Great blues vox there with some pretty good geetar picking Wyatt.

Blues over Belgium is equal to any blues I’ve heard and I have a very large blues vinyl/cd collection.

Outstanding   wOO

Well, thanks for all the nice comments, guys.
This was all just a bit of fun, hence the *one-take* recordings. I thought that would get more of a *live* feel.
When I was first learning to play back in the early 60's it was the blues that was my strongest influence. It was only in later years I got into the folk styles.
It's nice to revisit sometimes.  Cool
