MICK NADIN DIGS THE 'POOR BOY'

You'd have to say Mick loves his music. He's heavily into it. Not only does he write songs, he also sings, plays harp, and always enjoys the time he spends hanging in the PBGB Shed. Working under  the pseudonym 'General Mikey'  he even has a weekly reggae hour on our local community radio station 97.5 Sapphire fm.

Yep, he sure loves his reggae, but he also has a soft spot for the blues.

Mick turned up in The Shed one day with a song he called 'Poor Boy'.

We liked it. So we tossed it about for a while........ set up a groove, figured out what should go where and when.

A close listen to the lyrics will tell you it's a story about a poor boy who "ain't got no dollars, ain't got no sense,  ain't got no home, no friends, ain't even got a puppy. But he's happy just playin' the blues."

Wouldn't be the first one !
