Been listening to Seasick Steve for the last couple of weeks......for anybody who likes REAL blues, there's not many guys like Steve left....

Kicked out of his family home at the age of 14, Steve became a genuine hobo, hopping freights all over America. Always travelling with his guitar - having been taught a few chords as a kid by Delta bluesman KC Douglas, an old pal of the legendary Tommy Johnson - in the '60s he began to play at clubs on the West Coast and supported Son House amongst others.

He played with Lightnin' Hopkins for a while and Freddie King too. After years as a session-man and producer in the Seatle area where he had studio, recording the likes of Modest Mouse and Bikini Kill, his blues career was re-activated in the '90s when he noticed that grunge kids loved his slide-playing.

Anybody watching Jools Hollands' "Hootanany" last New Years Eve will have seen Steve with his trademark 3 string Electric guitar......there's a story behind the 3 strings:

He seen a pawn shop owner give somebody $25 for it.
He went into buy it the next day - asked how much it was and the shop owner said $75........Knowing he was being ripped off, he said that he was in the shop the day before and seen that he'd only paid £25 for it....shop owner says..."well, it's $75 today.....and it'll be $85 tomorrow" He bought the guitar for $25 and swore to the shop owner that he'd never put another string on it - take all around the world, make money from playing it and would tell everybody where he got it from and who ripped him off................and that's just what he did - and continues to do.

If you wanna have listen to some REAL blues, take a look in here:
