Here is a medley of a fast version of my song Gone Are Those Days and Lonesome Road Blues, an old blues tune I learned after seeing David Bromberg perform it in 1986. I wrote Doubt Love a long time ago and Bill has been playing it with me just as long. Woobie Cat Kitchens remains busy bringing you new live music to listen to on a regular basis and totally free.
