Burlap and Blues, The Blues Blog

Decided on Funky Woman... What an odd name for a tune. Sounds like something out of a horror movie.

Speaking of horror movies and Funky Woman, here is my inspiration for playing the blues over Funky Woman. When the movie "Twister" came out, my wife and I decided to see the movie. She enjoys movies, I am not really a big fan of movies because the screen is too big, I like to look away because I feel like I am falling. Twister was a graphic movie for it's day with tornadoes whipping cows around, etc.

We always get where we are going early, and like always, we got to the movie, got our popcorn, got a comfortable seat. About 5 minutes after the movie started a middle aged gal sat next to us. Unfortunate for me, she smelled like she hadn't showered for 3 months. As longs as she sat still, it was tolerable while I was eating my popcorn, but every time she moved I could smell this funky smell. Not only was the movie making me dizzy, I could hardly breathe...

Now them's the blues for sure...
