Delta Spirit
USA
Delta Spirit captures being in love with the blues. Jumping
to your feet from wherever side of town you find yourself on, it's not possible
to watch this quartet and mesh with the elbows in the crowd that earlier in
the day you mighta scowled across the street at. They bring out the true spirit
and smiles in us all and say to ourselves - What was in that drink I drank Momma?
Fireside at the beach? Yes but not the hometown, rather a west
Texas beach on a short but sweet stint to letting those 4 haircuts be anything
but trim
on this wild winded trip. These boys keep their lips to the air, spitting to
the wind like it was a good thing. In this group, it better be a good thing
and if you don¹t come along, they still gonna rock it away anyway.
What for? Soul is where it's at, and delta soul is given freely.
At any given gatherings around town, it's thrown at you. You gotta respond.
You gotta catch it but like the American pastime, you gotta throw back. You
gotta participate. Go on, knock the cigs outta their mouths they don't care,
as long as you do it with style.
But aren't we living in the oughts? It sounds kinda like a
spirit of the 20's Delta but I swear Lord that I'm in the state that made the
Blue Jeans that got down and found Gold in the streams. I think I found the
modern Gold. I think I found something that goes Pop. It sounds kinda like the
Mississippi screaming but I'm staring at the Pacific? Who said it was? Damn
it! This is Delta Spirit!
Barber said - Get your head level cuz I can't trim proper!
Delta boys said back with big grins, We don't need these trims in the first
place, and at that they grabbed their guitars and bicycles.
