The Dutch Mason Blues Band were great ! We used to see them when they came to Toronto every chance we could.

In fact, hearing Rick's solo on "Baby Please Don't Go" from the "Blues aint Bad" album is what got me interested in Blues music (~'76/77). I was listening on the radio and they played it, I was hooked.   I was sorry when I heard that he passed on.

I haven't seen any of season four but looking forward to seeing Dutch! I'm new to the show and have been watching seasons 1-3 over and over on DVD. I'm going to try and wait until the 4th DVDs come out and make a week of it!
Dear Fellow Poster,
Please fuck off at your earliest possible convenience.
Thanking you in advance,
Four Eyes

Cool.  You won't actually see Dutch, just hear his music.  At one point in time they are listening to the radio and the DJ calls him the Prime Minister of the Blues.

Well I just got Bell ExpressVu and was checking out ASN.  It said that they will be having a segment on Dutch Mason on Breakfast Television tomorrow.  BT is on from 7-8:30.  I hope I don't screw up taping it, have to get use to this new technology.

P.S. I�m halfway through his book �On the Road With Dutch Mason�, so far, so good.  TPB fans, and musicians, would like it.

My copy just arrived. Thanks Shake, I didn't know that the book existed until your post. I also got a couple of Dutchie CDs including a live album called "Appearing Nightly". (you may already know about/have this one) but the it's a collection of live recordings from the 70's/80's. On the liner notes it says that it was made from tapes that Dutch forgot about until they were emptying his basement after a flood. It was his him and his band in their prime including Rick Jeffery aka "Brother Rick on the Lickin' Stick". Damn good harp player.

I fininished the book awhile ago, lots of good stories.  Not only was Clattenburg's father in Dutch's band apparently he was his best friend.
