Blowin' Smoke : What A Lovely Way To Burn!!

First time I've seen the Blowin' Smoke since Canadian guitarist Dave Rave's return to the lower 48 and specifically the glamour of L.A.(!).

Possibly buoyed by the prescence of Guitar Shorty, Dave played the Strat. He sliced and diced it every which way he could. Hail! Hail! Dave Rave!! Blowin' Smoke is big and baaad and always showcases these amazing women singers. It's a one-of-a-kind blues experience!

Also in the house : Jimmy Z!

David Raven : Bluesin'

Dave Rave and his guys play "Bluesin;" live at Harvelle's.

Blowin' Smoke on a Saturday Night

They jive. 

They bump, swing and sway. 

It's the raucous Blowin' Smoke. 

Fuzzy and the boys return to Harvelle's for the Saturday night party that's sure to leave your feet sore and your head spinning. Good thing tomorrow's a Sunday. Time to recover. (Unless you gotta be in church in the morning.)

Tonight Dave Raven - one of Harvelle's own and the lead guitarist in Blowin' Smoke - will be playing his swan song guitar solo on 4th St., as he departs for the Northern skies of Toronto, Canada. Will it be on his Les Paul or his Stratocaster?

Dave, you will be missed.
