Jeff Chaz.
Another great Blues band from New Orleans. Perhaps sometimes sounding more like Chicago Blues than New Orleans, but hard to pin down and varied. According to on English critic “Jeff Chaz may well be the missing link between B.B. King, Albert King, Roy Buchanan, and Frank Zappa”. He also is a Minister with his own black church.

There can be low and difficult lighting in these venues. This started off as a part of an image that was challenged by bright light where much of the rest of the image was in dark shadows but I liked the feel of it, so I converted to a tonal dropout, as you see.
