Vern,

I'm into blues: delta, chicago, piedmont and a little country blues.  The setup 
at present is just me on my diatonic and an acoustic guitar.  Have any 
suggestions for music in those genres?  I appreciate your suggestions thus 
far.  Any chance you can tell me where I can get a look at your arrangments?  
Thanks for your help.
