Delta Boogie Newsletter-Gamerplus News - April 2025 - United Gospel Trio and Jazz Buskers at New Jazz In Jonesboro - Gameday Sunday Afternoons - Conventions
This Saturday, April 26 at 7:00 pm Central, New Jazz In Jonesboro returns, relocated to the Brookland Methodist Church Youth Building, a white building behind the church located at 301 W. Matthews in Brookland, Arkansas.
Playing this Saturday will be the United Gospel Trio and Jazz Buskers. There is no charge to attend but there will be a tip jar for the featured act.
Not in Jonesboro! In Brookland! Yes i know there's a Matthews St. in Jonesboro too. That's why I have all the exclamation points.
Also in music I have released a new CD, 1625 Groove Street, featuring Paul Lessard on alto. In the rhythm section are my friends from the ASU Jazz Program. Thanks to Chris Isom for suggesting this session.

Enjoy!
In gaming I will be the DM for the younger kids while Chris continues running his 5e campaign at our Sunday afternoon game day in the Brookland Methodist youth building, 2:00 to 5:00 PM. Chris also has all the board games for those who would prefer that side of tabletop gaming. We are looking for a volunteer to teach board games.
NEA Gamers Guild also has game days on the second Saturday at the Jonesboro Public Library Round Room and on the third Saturday at the Walnut Ridge Public Library.
I am also looking forward to attending the North Texas OSR convention in June and NEA Game Fest in July.

DJ Hairy Larry Presents John Good And Friends Playing Honky Tonk JoyPosted on 2025-04-21

Thanks Marty, today we’re going to hear a musician I played with 30 years ago who sent me some songs recently recorded.
Back in the nineties a guitarist called Duke was jamming with Hairy Larry and The Flying Hungarians. He even played at Blues Fest. A great guy and a great musician.
Now, 30 years later, I get an email from John Good. Duke is his stagename. John Good is his name. I probably knew that back at the time but I only remembered Duke.
And he sent me two CDs recorded by John Good and Friends. Excellent work played by excellent musicians from Little Rock, Arkansas.
The song I picked to play on Arkansas Roots is “Honky Tonk Joy” an original song recorded by John Good and Friends and featuring guitarists, Nick Devlin and John Good. It’s a rocker done in a style that is close to my heart, Honky Tonk.
So now, recorded in Little Rock Arkansas by John Good and Friends here’s “Honky Tonk Joy”.
This is Hairy Larry inviting you to enjoy Something Blue every Saturday night at ten. This week we’re featuring John Good, Spafford, and Eric Krasno. For more about the show visit the Something Blue website at sbblues.com.
Don’t miss Something Blue, Saturday night at 10:00 PM Central, at kasu.org.

EpiphanyPosted on 2025-04-16
Epiphany
It's Holy Week.
After Bible study this morning Brother Chris gave a preamble to his closing prayer. I don't remember the words but I will always remember that I was touched by Jesus.
If I were agnostic I might say that his words, spoken in love, reached my heart.
But I'm not agnostic and I don't see any significant difference between his words, spoken in love, reached my heart and touched by Jesus.
All Love and Prayers,
Larry
Reviews Of 1625 Groove StreetPosted on 2025-04-16
Great Reviews On The New Album, 1625 Groove Street

Ruffy says - Solid work! Make sure to give the sax guy a raise! :3

My friend ZDL from Wuhan, China, sent me this review on Mastodon.
I quite like this. It's nice, light fare meaning I can have it as the background when I'm working, but if I pause and concentrate on it there are some very nice depths to it. Also the sax soloist is fire.
Listen here.
