WE WERE PLAYING WITH A FELLA NAMED MARTIN, WHO WAS A TERRIFIC ACOUSTIC GUITAR PLAYER AND BLUES' SINGER, AND EVENTUALLY FELL INTO THIS LINEUP PLAYING DATES, BUT JOE WASN'T IN THE GROUP AT THAT POINT.

I HAD MET JOE FROM SEVERAL OF THE OTHER DATES THAT WE HAD BEEN ON IN BURLINGTON.

JOE WAS PLAYING WITH A NUMBER OF PEOPLE BUT NEVER PLAY I GO THIS KIND OF BLUES' STYLE.

THE FEW TIMES I PLAYED WITH HIM, IT BECAME OBVIOUS TO ME THIS GUY HAD SOMETHING THAT WAS NOT BEING EXPLORED OR LET OUT AT ALL IN SOME OF THESE OTHER GROUPS, AND I SUGGESTED TO EVERYBODY ELSE, WE SHOULD REALLY GET THIS GUY ON A COUPLE OF GIGS THAT WE ARE PLAYING.

I GUARANTEE YOU HE WILL BE GREAT.

AND THE QUESTION CAME UP, NO, JOE IS GOING TO WALK IN AND TAKE CHARGE, AND IT REALLY HAPPENED.

ALL OF US JUST REALIZED WITHIN FIVE MINUTES OF STARTING TO PLAY, THAT THIS IS GOING TO REALLY CLICK.

AND JOE SORT OF WALKED INTO A SLOT THAT WE DID NOT REALIZE WAS THERE UNTIL HE WALKED INTO IT.

AND THEN IT'S BEEN LIKE THAT HEAVEN PLEASE SEND TO ALL MANKIND UNDERSTANDING AND PEACE OF MIND BUT IF IT'S NOT ASKING TOO MUCH PLEASE SEND ME SOMEONE TO LOVE WHOA, SOMEONE TO LOVE SHOW ALL THE WORLD HOW TO GET ALONG PEACE WILL ENTER WHEN HATE IS GONE BUT IF IT'S NOT TOO MUCH ASKING TOO MUCH PLEASE SEND ME SOMEONE TO LOVE SOMEONE TO LOVE I LAY AWAKE NIGHTS AND POND WORLD TROUBLES MY ANSWER IS ALWAYS THE SAME THAT UNLESS MEN PUT AN END TO ALL OF THIS THE WORLD IS GOING TO GET IN A FLAME OH, WHAT A SHAME JUST BECAUSE I'M IN MISERY I'M NOT BEGGING FOR NO SYMPATHY BUT IF IT'S NOT ASKING TOO MUCH JUST SEND ME SOMEONE TO LOVE YOU KNOW THE WORLD HAS BEEN SUCH A BAD STATE SHOULD LEAVE IT FOR THE KIDS SO THE KIDS CAN STRAIGHTEN IT OUT UNTIL I GET OFF THE WORLD ALL THEY NEED TO DO IS LOVE ONE ANOTHER AND EVERYTHING WOULD BE ALL RIGHT, YOU KNOW AND ANOTHER THING, ALL YOU NEED TO DO IS LOVE ONE ANOTHER HELP HIM OUT, DON'T KEEP HIM DOWN.
