Gimme Shelter Rocks Off Regular Offline THE ROLLING STONES #1 Posts: 1,397 Bend, OR Gender:	Taj Mahal Sep 29^th, 2008 at 12:57pm The wife and I went and saw Taj Mahal last night at the Tower Theatre here in Bend, OR. Really good show. I saw him a few years ago and he was really good then too. I even got an autographed cd.

Some of the songs he played were Fishin' Blues, Corinna, Queen Bee, Big Legged Mamas Are Back in Style, and alot of others. It was really a cool show.

fireontheplatter Ex Member	Re: Taj Mahal Reply #3 - Sep 29^th, 2008 at 7:06pm do you question the authenticity of your autograph at all? does sound like a great show especially in bend, or of all places. smith rocks is a beautiful place, i am sure you know where i am talking about. great hiking and rock climbing there. corina. wow!!! great tune. how much was it for a bud?

It was a damn good show, he's a great guitarist. I shook his hand and got an autographed copy of his biography after the show. I've yet to open the book.

First saw him @ the Mariposa festivals in Toronto, would have been 1969-1970, & then in Regina Sask. in 1976. I've always stood in awe of him as an artiste, I rate myself a copyist rather than an inovator which he certainly is, equally at home with a funky electric blues as with Mississippi Jon Hurt

I rediscovered the song 'Little Brown Dog' thru him, Peter Paul & Mary had done it, but the surrealism of it hit me on his version, still do it after all these years.
