06/03/2006 Cary Hudson at Mojo's

I have posted this classic show on my site for download. This was a great set of music from Cary Hudson. It had a nice mix of new songs, classic Blue Mountain songs, covers, and great Cary Hudson solo material. This set includes two songs I had not heard before, the cover of Freight Train that Cary had done for a tribute album, as well as Just stuff which was a song he wrote in response to hurricane Katrina's devistation of Mississippi. The great thing about seeing Cary solo is that his guitar work is just amazing. He makes the rocking songs like Bloody 98 and 900 miles sound as full and vibrant as when he plays with a full band. Further, I really think that his improvisations solo bring the songs to life.

Set List:
1) Cool Breeze
2) Free State Of Jones
3) Freight Train (Elizabeth Cotton)
4) Things Ain't What They Used To Be
5) What The Old Man Told Me
6) Pray For Peace
7) Poppa
8) Epitaph
9) Bloody 98
10) Little Darlin'
11) Jelly Roll
12) ZZQ
13) Snow In Mississippi
14) Blue Canoe
15) Just Stuff
16) Passin By
17) Rye Whiskey
18) 900 Miles
19) Banks of The Pontchartrain
