Thom Doucette
Thom "Ace" Doucette is an American blues harmonica player from the Sarasota, Florida region. He is best known for having played with The Allman Brothers Band in the 1970s and later, although he was never a member. In his early days as a musician, Doucette was a friend of bassist Berry Oakley; guitarist Dickey Betts occasionally ran into the pair in Florida clubs. Once the Allman Brothers Band had formed with Oakley and Betts as members, Doucette became friendly with group leader Duane Allman, who bestowed upon him the moniker "The Ace". Doucette appears on the group's second album, ''Idlewild South'' in 1970, playing harmonica and percussion. In particular his harmonica is featured on the track "Don't Keep Me Wonderin'", where it plays along and against the slide guitar of Duane Allman; towards the end the two merge together. Doucette joined the band frequently when they played the Fillmore East in New York, and consequently his harmonica solos are featured on two of the track ...

People From Sarasota, Florida
A person ( : people) is a being that has certain capacities or attributes such as reason, morality, consciousness or self-consciousness, and being a part of a culturally established form of social relations such as kinship, ownership of property, or legal responsibility. The defining features of personhood and, consequently, what makes a person count as a person, differ widely among cultures and contexts. In addition to the question of personhood, of what makes a being count as a person to begin with, there are further questions about personal identity and self: both about what makes any particular person that particular person instead of another, and about what makes a person at one time the same person as they were or will be at another time despite any intervening changes. The plural form "people" is often used to refer to an entire nation or ethnic group (as in "a people"), and this was the original meaning of the word; it subsequently acquired its use as a plural form of per ...

Call It Stormy Monday (But Tuesday Is Just As Bad)
"Call It Stormy Monday (But Tuesday Is Just as Bad)" (commonly referred to as "Stormy Monday") is a song written and recorded by American blues electric guitar pioneer T-Bone Walker. It is a slow twelve-bar blues performed in the West Coast blues-style that features Walker's smooth, plaintive vocal and distinctive guitar work. As well as becoming a record chart hit in 1948, it inspired B.B. King and others to take up the electric guitar. "Stormy Monday" became Walker's best-known and most-recorded song. In 1961, Bobby "Blue" Bland further popularized the song with an appearance in the pop record charts. Bland introduced a new arrangement with chord substitutions, which was later used in many subsequent renditions. His version also incorrectly used the title "Stormy Monday Blues", which was copied and resulted in royalties being paid to songwriters other than Walker. The Allman Brothers Band recorded an extended version for their first live album in 1971, with additional c ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
You Don't Love Me (Willie Cobbs Song)
"You Don't Love Me" is a rhythm and blues-influenced blues song recorded by American musician Willie Cobbs in 1960. Adapted from Bo Diddley's 1955 song "She's Fine She's Mine", it is Cobbs' best-known song and features a guitar figure and melody that has appealed to musicians in several genres. Although it became a regional hit when it was released in Memphis, Tennessee, copyright issues prevented its further promotion and national chart success. The song inspired many adaptations, such as "Shimmy Shimmy Walk" by the Megatons and "You Don't Love Me (No, No, No)" by Jamaican singer Dawn Penn. The Allman Brothers Band popularized it with their extended jam concert performances, as captured on ''At Fillmore East'' (1971). Background Willie Cobbs, an Arkansas native, moved to Chicago in 1947, where he began exploring the burgeoning blues scene centered around Maxwell Street. While in Chicago, he learned the blues harp from Little Walter and began an association with pianist Eddie B ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Done Somebody Wrong
"I Must Have Done Somebody Wrong" is a blues song written and recorded by Eddie Kirkland in 1959. Using the same lyrics but modifying aspects of the music, Elmore James recorded it as "Done Somebody Wrong" in 1960; he took sole writing credit for it and it came to be known as an Elmore James song. "Done Somebody Wrong" was interpreted by the Allman Brothers Band in 1971 and featured on their classic live album ''At Fillmore East''. As ''Billboard'' magazine has stated, the song became "more associated with the Allmans than with James in the end." Eddie Kirkland original Kirkland moved around during his youth, but one classification of blues singers' heritages places him in the Alabama part of the "Eastern Piney Woods" region. "I Must Have Done Somebody Wrong" was recorded for Fortune Records in Detroit, Michigan in 1959, and issued later that year on a 45 rpm record with "I Need You Baby" on the other side. Kirkland was listed as the sole songwriter. Unlike some blues s ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
