Full House at Walter’s Blues Jam

Walter Gentry’s Tuesday night jam was another packed evening on and off the stage.  Who ever said blues is boring hasn’t been to a San Diego jam!

Here we have Ray Zvetini playing guitar and singing an Albert King (and later Eric Clapton) cover song Crosscut Saw.  With him on stage are Doyle Thomas on guitar, Seth Webster on bass, Lisa Viegas on drums, Tim Sutherland on keyboard, Ray Brown on trumpet and John Brooks on sax.

Some of the musicians switched out and Ray Brown took over the vocals and belted out that great Commodore’s cover song Brick House.  Justin Fools joined in on harmonica, Fuzzy Rankins played the keyboard, Matt Taylor was back on drums, and I’m not sure who was playing the other guitar.  Seth was still on bass, John was on sax, and I didn’t catch who joined them on trumpet.  The sound got a bit loud, so it didn’t pick up too well on my mic.

Earlier that night, Somerset Barnard, visiting from Australia, was performing one of his own tunes Nobody’s Fault.  He was joined by Seth Webster on bass guitar, Johnny Vernazza on guitar, Matt Taylor on drums, Ray Brown on trumpet and John Brooks on sax.
