I just ran across this band today, and I'm quite impressed as I listen in the context of a personal binge of blues and blues-related music over the last 10 days or so. It occurred to me last night that ALL the items on the list I've made for you are historical --the people who recorded them are all dead dead dead. The trio Scratch Track are very alive indeed, and what they do owes a lot to the blues legacy. See the link to mp3 at Eclectic Bougaloo, a site that I'll be revisiting, and it looks like there are more examples at the band's own Website.
