I would like to welcome Hoodoojimmy to the list. I was surprised to see ya here Jimmy. You keyboard players sure get around. I just played with Smokehouse Porter & the Gutbucket Blues Band in the Hemingbough Festival that Hoodoojimmy and Kenny put on in St. Francisville, Louisiana and it was first class. In addition to us & the Housereckers, there was Big Luther Kent, Raful Neal and John Lisi & Delta Funk!. Jimmy is a class guy and does much to help the blues cause in Baton Rouge. He moved in from Colorado and adapted nicely. Incidently, any of those harp players could play through a tin can hooked up by commo wire to a solid state Radio Shack amp and sound great. God bless him, Cadillac passed July 13th last year in a tragic accident at an all too young age. His busting personality is still missed by all. Y'all be nice to Hoodoojimmy. He is good people. Kenny Acosta is a singer, songwriter, guitar player that has been out there for some time now. Catch them if you get the chance (heck, catch us too for that matter). Boogie
