| Strange Angels (D. Jacombs)I just love playing blues like this styled somewhere between Robert Johnson or Lightning Hopkins. It seems to come very naturally, and with Sonia's great trumpet it's simply a matter of keeping out of her way and grooving. Al Norman
did a weird drone on the accordion which gives this recording quite a spooky feel which I really like. Strange Angels, Lord, they will not let me be
Strange Angels, Lord, they will not let me be
Every road I travel strange angels follow me
Strange Angels, flying all around my head
Strange Angels, flying all around my head
When I woke up this morning I wished that I was someone else instead
I looked into the mirror to see what I could find
I saw a face behind me and it tangled up my mind
Strange angels - every time I look around
They keep my senses reeling and my nose pressed to the ground
I dreamed of strange strange angels all knocking at my door
And pressing at the window, too needy to ignore
Strange angels - too hard to please and entertain
But they cast a spell upon me that I just can't explain Strange angels, strange angels
Strange angels got my life wrapped up in chains
So if you ask me how I'm feeling, all I can say is "strange"
