Cuby & The Blizzards-Tour 65


Last Thursdaynight was a magnificent blues nigtht. That night I went to a performance of Cuby & The Blizzards in musiccentre Vredenburg in Utrecht.
At first there was Ralph de Jongh to warm up the public before the main event started. I myself like to lsten and see how Ralph performs the blues. When Ralph picks up the guitar he seems to become a complete other man. He becomes part of his guitar and the blues he is playing, you see the blues coming out of each vibre of his body. Ralphs blues can be best compared with the original delta blues from the Mississippi Delta. When you close your eyes you hear Jhon Lee Hooker but at the same time the slight differences in the sound so which makes Ralph so Unique.
After that Cuby & The Blizards made their entance. Harry "Cuby" Muskee, 65 years of age, is a performer through the heart, a proffesional, a stage animal, a perfectionist and super cool on stage. He directs his band and gives the soloïsts the room they need on stage. He is still top. The program is almost the same as on the live recorded cd "Live in het Oude Luxor", which I bought during the break.
A night with good music, and as all good things it was over to soon.
Ralph, Harry,Helmig, Hans, Herman, Erwin and other musicians thank you for a rememberable night.

Cuby and the Blizzards

photo by H.W. de Nijs, Utrecht, The Netherlands, copyright 2007


Well upcoming thursday one of the eldest bluesband in the Netherlands "Cuby & The Blizzards" will perform in Vredenburg at Utrecht. Although Harry "Cuby" Muskee is already 65 years of age, thats why the tour is called "Route 65" I think, he still is one of the best bluesartist of the world. Also Ralph the young will be present , he played Harry Muskee in a film about Harry when he was young. As well as Harry, Ralph's blues comes from the heart. I am looking forward to upcoming Thursday, I already gave myself a ticket for this show. How it was I will tell you as I have seen, but above all heard it.
So keep watching this page, and till next time. O yeah please if you do (dis)like my pages leave a comment or write a message in my guestbook. I am always curious who is reading my pages.

More blues, upcoming is the Culemborg Blues 2007 in August. Can't wait, please visit Live Music Club Cees Place, home of the jazz and shelter of the blues every wednesdaynight bluesnight, open stage from 22.00 h so bring your guitar or other instruments (drums on stage same goes for keys and amplifiers) and play along, see you there.
