Ray Wylie Hubbard/THE GRIFTER'S HYMNAL

I heard Ray Wylie two years ago sing MOTHER BLUES at the Armadillo Christmas Crafts Fair.  And I fell in love with him and his talkin' blues.  And I promised myself I'd get that CD the moment it came out.  This is an autobiographical song with a great beat, a great story, and brings this Brooklyn Jewish mama so much pleasure when she cooks and cleans.  He writes/ sings "when my gratitude is greater than my expectations those are my good days"  and there he so defines my mantra  and the way I have tried to live this life I was given.  Thank-you Ray Wylie.
