WISH YOU A VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR

THANK YOU FOR VISITING THIS BLOG

PLEASE CONTINUE TO DO SO

Music is an integral part of this blog’s life. For those who love music, please find below a link to the work of Markus K (as posted by the artiste on YouTube). An amazingly talented busker, Markus stands out for his sense of rhythm, groove, bluesy guitar and a relaxed, laidback style. Not to mention – that touch of simplicity. This particular performance is a tribute to the late guitar great, Jeff Beck, who passed away in January 2023. The song Rollin and Tumblin also referred to as Roll and Tumble Blues was first recorded in 1929 by Hambone Willie Newborne. A classic, it has been subsequently reinterpreted by several artistes with the version by the late Muddy Waters becoming the basis for most covers done by rock musicians. Markus, one must say, has given it an altogether different, delightful twist.
