Purgatory Hill

by pat mAcdonald / Purgatory Hill

supported by

Gearald Becker This right here is just possibly the best thing to happen to the blues in the current millennium. Hard to believe he's playing it on a 4-string electric cigar box with two broomsticks stuck through it.... Favorite track: The Little Things.
