It is worth your while. Whiskey for the Holy Ghost or bubblegum are both near perfect records, and a great introduction to each of his approaches

Bleeding Muddy Water is just fucking unreal amazing. That's the one you posted on FB not too long ago, right? I'd never heard it before and it totally blew my mind. Is that on Blues Funeral? If so that's the one I'm going to buy.

But I'm listening to Bubblegum on Spotify right now and totally digging it.

I thought he would come down from the heavens and stab me with a lightning bolt. Nothing else really makes all that much sense.
