SON SEALS : CAN’T HEAR NOTHING BUT THE BLUES [1994]

Το αριστούργημα των Henry Bush and Dave Clark, περισσότερο γνωστό απ’ την βερσιόν του Albert King [1974], εδώ από τον επίσης σπουδαίο κιθαρίστα-τραγουδιστή-συνθέτη, Son Seals. Από το άλμπουμ του των middle ‘90s “Nothing But The Truth”.
Henry Bush and Dave Clark’s masterpiece, better known in its Albert King version [1974], here by the also great guitarist-singer-songwriter Son Seals. From his middle ‘90s album “Nothing But The Truth”.

My father and mother were great people
Oh, what a beautiful memory of them
My father used to sing a sweet love song
Mother would sing that soul for him
I guess I’m just a guy with a different mood
And Lord, oh, I can’t hear nothing but the blues
A beautiful bird whispering down through the trees
I know I can’t dig the sweet melody
I’m blue and all alone
I wonder what in a hell is wrong with me
I guess I’m just a guy with a different mood
Lord, oh, I can’t hear nothing but the blues
Mister Bartender
I want you to play the jukebox for me
I want you to take my last dime
And put it on BB, Ray or me
I guess I’m just a guy with a different mood
Lord, oh, I can’t hear nothing but the blues

    This reminds me a lot of BB King.

      It’s only natural since BB was Seals’ number one influence!
