I had been talking to my longtime friend and Harmonica player "Hambone"
over a Mason Jar of Apple Pie Moonshine.
We had been jamming all afternoon
and were taking a little refreshment break.
The talk turned to the songs I'd been writing when he said,
"You combine Acoustic Delta Blues,
Electric Blues, and The Blues Americana of today.......
"Delta Blues Americana".......that's what your music is."
Alrighty then.
I had been going to Speals Tavern for a while
in Historic downtown New Alexandria PA,
honing my chops and cutting my teeth
with some of the best blues musicians around.
One night Dan Speal greeted me as I came in the door
with a big grin on his face, "Well I'll be......
if it ain't Bobby "Guitar" Martin."
I was just Bobby before that
so this is all Dan's fault.
That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
I'm Bobby "Guitar" Martin
and I play Delta Blues Americana.
I hope you like it.
