well I almost made it thru the topic title without swearin'.
Was listening to 1 of my favourite radio stations while out in the shop today . They were playing the new release by Eric Clapton entitled...get this..... Me and Mr.Johnson .
Mr. Johnson being of course , the one an' only Robert Johnson of delta blues fame .
I fuggin' hate this . White boy[Clapton] has somehoe[sp] managed to get his greasey little honky hands on some of Roberts stuff .
WHITE MEN CAN'T JUMP.....that was a movie....
White Men can't play the fuggin' blues niether.
Where in the fug does Clapton come off thinking he can play the blues . Clapton ....BLOWS .
Let me see if I can't make myself better understood here.
My favourite instrument is the bagpipes....no...I don't mean my wife's voice . hehehe . My favourite musical instrument is the bagpipes , and I have absolutely no interest in hearin' the pipes played by some flyin' carpet salesman from Iraq . You follow? The pipes are a traditional instrument , and a traditional sound from Scotland. Its in their blood . Its in their heritage . Nobody can Irish dance better than a lass from me homeland , O says I . Nobody can play those big fat Japanese drums better than one of those big fat Japanese guys. you see?
Where does Clapton come off thinking he knows anything about the delta Blues .
Its a music you have to be born into . you cant be a rich fuggin white guy an' expect to be able to deliver a song the same way in which a black man growing up poor and treated like shid , was able to deliver it .
Clapton blows . Did I mention that .
Dont get me wrong here , this isn't a fight for the blackman[african american, or whatever else might be politically fuggin correct these days] this is just rubbah spewin' off about some fuggin' white guy thinkin' he write an' sing the blues .
Eric (I hope he GETS the clap) Clapton can go get fugged.
How dare he . How dare he name his album "Me and Mr. Johnson".
Robert Johnson must be rolling over in his grave right now . Robert's probably thinking: "What in the fug
does this white boy
think he is doin', the
fuggin' honky is
butcherin' my music."
anyway, that about concludes Rubbah's rant . Tune in again tomorrow and I'll bless you with some other insightful crap .
