Today marks the first day I broke 100 songs.
The most interesting thing I heard today was "Blue Train" by John Coltrane followed by "Blue Velvet" by Bobby Vinton.
I owe and Elvis fans an apology, because I heard both Elvis' and Carl Perkins doing "Blue Suede Shoes" today, and Carl Perkins' version is far better.
I heard 53 songs today that started with the letters "blue" - which includes all "blues" songs, and also wrapped up the last nine "black" songs.
The end of the day was represented by some great guitarists:
- Brian May from Queen - Bohemian Rhapsony
- Stevie Ray Vaughan - Boilermaker
- Jimi Hendrix - Bold as Love
- Joe Walsh - The Bomber
