You are very welcome! Again, thanks to Bond so much for posting these tracks -

I stand by both tunes but think maybe some context helps...

"Short-Term Memory Blues" was NEVER meant to be Robert Johnson or even Delbert McClinton...it is more like a Blind Willie McTell goofy song...but I would never put it in the category of "real" blues though it originates from a deep love of it...it is included on the CD b/c it was a live staple from 95-98 when I was shuffling around NYC...got a lot of laughs...comic song not serious blues...

"Spider and the Fly" is a VERY atypical song for me even from the NCW album (maybe 1 other song on there like that) - my attempt at Nick Drake-dom long before the VW commercial - my wife's favorite song on the CD lol - the most folk I have ever gone really...

:-) you all seem like well educated, honest, sensible peeps. Tomorrow you will see what I am doing now which is not at all a folkie coffeehouse thing. Appreciate the chance to show my other side! Rock on.

JEFF: Isn't it though.

Eeek! Scary. This album was recorded 10 years ago, so please keep that in mind. Maybe you folks would like my newer stuff better - all available to listen to for free at www.reverbnation.com/chrishuff - thanks to Bond for the post! Much appreciated :-)

DRILLERAA: Thanks for your feedback. I certainly see/hear your points and they are well made.

JULIE: Thanks for your opinion...I will keep the 'wanting to hear more' in mind

Getting back into the swing of blogging again and just wanted to drop in to say HI!

Jay's got a point; this guy is good pub music, but his voice isn't full enough for blues. It lacks....something.

2009-02-16T10:06:00.000-06:00

This guy is pretty good. I could see myself going down to the pub and listening to him if he was playing there and having a good time.

2009-02-16T09:03:00.000-06:00

I agree with Travis. I liked Chris very much and could definitely listen to him. I like his guitar picking and his voice is very easy to listen to. As to if I would buy his music, I honestly don't think so.

Great New Music Monday! Thanks Vinnybond!

I wanted to also say Thank You for the CD. I just love it!!! :-)

Hugs,
Kimmie

I think I agree with Drilleraa. I wouldn't turn this off if I heard it on the radio, but not sure if I'd buy it. He might be one of those artists that grows on me after awhile.

I really like this stuff and would love to hear more!

The second one kinda rambles on too long...but I still think he has potential!

Thanks for introducing him to us!

Chris Huff isn't bad. I think I like the instruments better than his vocals. I can't put my finger on it but there is something missing. There seems to be a little soul or blues missing from his "Short Term Memory Blues." Maybe I'm just expecting a little more rasp in his voice, like a Delbert McClinton or B.B. King. I don't know, the songs are good, I'm just missing a little something in the vocals.
