Teresa James & Terry Wilson Live on Game Changers with Vicki Abelson
They may sing the blues but they sure make me happy. Grammy nominees Teresa James and Terry Wilson treated us to our first live mini-concert in Game Changers history. And it was spectacular! With their brand new album of reimagined Beatle songs, With a Little Help From Her Friends, which debuted at #9 on the Billboard Blues chart at the fore, the last third of the show was devoted to cuts from said album, and one of my favorites of theirs, Don’t Make A Habit of It. Joining them was longtime Rhythm Tramps guitarist Billy Watts (Eric Burdon, John Mayall), and drummer, Richard Millsap (currently touring with John Fogerty). Special thanks to Louie Kovic for making it happen.
Celebrating Teresa’s nomination for Contemporary Female Blues Artist of the Year, from The Blues Foundation, we talked their early years in Texas, separately and eventually together. Terry, who goes back with my beau, 50+ years, then London calling and forming Back Street Crawler with Paul Kosoff (Free) and John Bundrick (The Who), to playing with Eric Burdon, which Teresa eventually did as well. There were lots of bands, sessions, and tours for both, with parenting taking precedence for a number of years, limiting Teresa’s roading for a spell. She recorded with Eric Burdon, Spencer Davis, Tommy Castro, Stephen Bruton, Randy Newman, Neil Diamond, and many others and performed with Levon Helm, Lloyd Jones, Delbert McClinton, and Eric Burdon & the Animals to mention just a few, and did many before-mentioned sessions.
A gifted and proficient songwriter, composer, producer, and bassist, Terry never stops working and creating. Numerous albums for different artists are currently in the works and another upcoming kick-ass studio album with Teresa and the Rhythm Tramps will drop in September.
Teresa James and The Rhythm Tramps play regularly in LA. For upcoming shows, music, and access to all things James/Wilson visit TeresaJames.com
These folks are the real deal. The music, the songs, that voice. WOW! I could listen to them all day. And many days, I do!

Practice tip of the day! Speed is like riding a bike. You need to get out and explore various speeds without being locked into a metronome. Go fast lose your balance and fall a few times. Your hands want to find the balance but you can’t find it without losing it. When you go back to your metronome work you’ll be surprised how much more control you feel. #practice #guitar #jerryreed #chetatkins #jerrysbreakdown #fingerstyleguitar #music #musician https://www.instagram.com/p/CS2FogAFiv7/?utm_medium=tumblr

I got the Smokey And The Bandit 7 Movie Outlaw Collection and have now seen Smokey And The Bandit Part 3, apparently for the first time. This movie is completely bonkers. It's a mess and really doesn't make any sense, but Jerry Reed is utterly delightful and Colleen Camp is charming in a role that is all about plot contrivances. If the these movies end up on the Peacock streaming service, if you watch the 2 previous movies, have super low expectations, and are stoned, you might find this banana-pants movie fun. BTW before playing Junior Justice in 3 movies in the 70's and 80's, Mike Henry played Tarzan in 3 movies in the 60's. He's also down to wearing not much more than a loin cloth in the nudist picnic scene.

Today Live! They may sing the blues but they sure make me happy. Teresa James and Terry Wilson were 2019 Grammy nominees with a just dropped new album of reimagined Beatle songs, which debuted at #9 on the Billboard Blues chart, and are currently celebrating Teresa’s nomination by the Blues Foundation for Contemporary Female Blues Artist of the Year.
From Houston Texas, Teresa and Terry are in perfect harmony on and off the charts. With the voice of a knowing angel, aided by brilliant songs and instrumentation, these two deserve every award and accolade. Great to sit down and listen to, and even more fun to witness live, with their band, Teresa James and the Rhythm Tramps, they’re always kick-ass on fire.
Teresa’s recorded with Eric Burdon, Spencer Davis, Tommy Castro, Stephen Bruton, Randy Newman, Neil Diamond, and many others. She’s performed live with lots of other artists, including Marcia Ball, Levon Helm, Lloyd Jones, Delbert McClinton, and Eric Burdon & the Animals to mention just a few.
The Rhythm Tramps is made up of world-class players that have toured or recorded with Eric Burdon & the Animals, Bonnie Raitt, Delbert McClinton, Jimmy Reed, Lightin’ Hopkins, Jimmy Vaughan, Johnny Nash, Smokey Robinson, Tom Jones, Tower Of Power, just to name a few, and their songs have been recorded by many other artists.
Thrilled to sit down again with these two, it’s like going home. They go back decades with my beau, have all performed together in my living room and I’ve seen them live innumerable times. A special treat this day, they’re gonna play us some cuts from, With a Little Help from Her Friends. Having listened and sung along (badly), I’m so excited to share them and this FAB new music with you.

The Waterboy (1998)
Wait. The Waterboy is supposed to be one of Adam Sandler’s good movies? Am I missing something? This film isn’t good. It’s annoying, repetitive, and sloppy.
31-year-old soft-spoken, H20-obsessed manchild Bobby Boucher (Adam Sandler) speaks with a stutter and is smothered by his excessively sheltering mother (Kathy Bates). He's a loser by every definition until a sudden burst of rage catches the eye of the University of Louisiana's coach (Henry Winkler). Suddenly, the Cougars' waterboy becomes their star player.
The second you hear Bobby speak, you’ll know if this film is for you. There are underdogs, then there are losers who are still waterboys into their 30s, then there’s this guy. Director Frank Coraci lays it on so thick you can’t categorize him as anything but annoying even before you consider his speech mannerisms. It’s nails on a chalkboard, cats screeching at each other, and boiling water in your ear! You're supposed to like this underdog but there's no way you can. He’s socially inept to the point of being a cartoon… until he isn’t. We’re asked to cheer for someone who doesn’t train to become a better athlete, who charms the girl who fawns over him (Fairuza Balk as Vicki) through magic in every way but name, who can’t even stand up to the people who bully him except by demolishing them through violent means. Only this contortionist of a plot could make this candidate for a one-way trip to the sun a "hero".
Get ready for the typical Sandler-isms! Jokes at the expense of people who look different? There’s a buffet of them as we’re asked to laugh at people who are cross-eyed, speak with Cajun accents, or have bad teeth. Does Bobby scream at, or hit people for comedic effect? Over and over! Are there a lot of cameos from his usual posse of buddies and sports figures? You know it! It’s nothing but cheap jokes one after another until we reach the end - cue the cheap sentimentality dumped on you as mercilessly as a ton of bricks.
While I don't consider myself a fan of Adam Sandler, I tried to have a good time. I made the effort to write down every genuinely funny joke I could find so I could review it fairly. Out of my list, six were shot down by the crowd I was watching it with, which leaves us with 12 laughs. Only 12? In a 90-minute comedy, that’s pathetic. Particularly when it felt so much longer than an hour-and-a-half.
Poorly written, with performances that could curdle milk, The Waterboy offers little to those who are not indoctrinated in the Church of Sandler. I laughed here and then, but these few moments do not cancel out each time the film was grating, predictable, low-brow, lazily-written, and phony. (March 3, 2017)
