Taper Notes:
- SLO Blues Society show
- I love this band, and have seen them many times in SLO County. Roach, who is married to guitarist Byl Carruthers, has such a stage presence that she has the audience, especially men, wrapped around herfinger. This show, the band encored with ‘Killing Floor’, and Roach gyrated onstage like a woman possessed, before culminating with a fall to the floor in a fetal position at the guitarist’s feet, with the microphone clutched in her hands. I stood up front, at the edge of the dance floor, directly
in front of the guitarist’s amp. I think this audience recording has a really good mix of instruments and vocals, as only vocals and keyboards were being pushed through the PA. Byl commented onstage that San Luis Obispo has one of the two oldest Blues Societies in the country, the other being in Santa Barbara. He said on stage that the SLO Blues Society was 37 years old, but I believe it was started in 1980, which would make it 34 years old. In any case, I have been very fortunate to have been a part of so many blues shows at the SLO Vets’ Hall over the years, going back to 1992.
