My baby left me... left me sad and bluuuuueee....


Hey folks

So the woman packed up and left, decided to move out for a while, and despite her insistance it aint over, i know it is!!!!!

So i spent a good part of the weekend on the porch of my new house in this beautiful colorado weather drank ice cold beer and jammed out to BB King and Eric Claptons DVD-A "Riding With the King", some very good fitting songs from that album for the situation.

What are the best "My baby left me" Blues out there? Suddenly without having to support my girl anymore i found that my spending cash is not only increased but i can do whatever i want with it. So im looking to pick up some real good blues.

The old stereo rig had to go due to the debt which resulted in really poor roommate choice, but she WAS adamant about getting my stereo in the basement.

Every cloud has a silver lining. She didnt make much money and most of my earnings went to all the bills. With her out of the picture my financial situation has relaxed pretty nicely,so i will be able to put some more money in my stereo rig.

Yep, werent married, but i DID manage to buy her mothers house when they were finished renovating it. Granite, Marble, Hardwood, and Slate everywhere. The house is beautiful, and i got a killer deal on it.

As for the suggestion for the 18 year old, ARE YOU NUTS? My "girl" was 20, im 27, this time im looking for a girl of at least 25. Were not really broken up at this point, but the way this all happened gives me no doubt i will be single within a month.

And that of course, is the best time to buy stereo gear. No more of this "you dont need new speakers, those radioshack speakers sound perfectly fine", or "You are wanting to spend HOW MUCH on THAT UGLY THING? FORGET IT!"

hahahahahahaha
try eric clapton, E.C. was here
- "Have You Ever Loved a Woman"

hey Onhwy61, I also like Rush's "Mourning in the Morning"
Ok Slappy, enough sadness! Put on Elvis Costello's "Lipstick Vogue" REAL LOUD and sing along. --)
Maybe some Eminem would be more appropriate...LOL

stay away from the young ones Slappy...I've made that mistake also...fwiw

There is only one, and only one CD to buy when you have the blues about a woman, and that is Layla, nothing in the world compares to it, period. Check out Bobby singing (I mean weeping) the background vocals to Layla, Why does love got to be so sad, Thorn Tree in a Garden, man it just dosen't get any better than this. Clapton at his best with Bell Bottom Blues and the added bonus of Duane Allman's slide geetar. I learned to play guitar from these two guys who have had more blues to sing and play about then any body. Too bad you don't live closer I would buy the beer for the entire week! I feel your pain, my brother, but get the CD, drink your sorrows away and then go out and chase some skirt! You will find some fresh poon tang out there in a month or so, so get on your horse and ride!

Get the Layla CD and play da blues away!

Happy Listening.
