Christine Ohlman w/ George Baker Cafe 9
Need to make a point to tell the crew at c9 to get the website correct. The billing for this show had CM headlining, so I was surprised to enter just as she was ending her set. A good Take Me to the River and a later duet with GB was all I got from the beehive queen. Both of these artists are local legends, with GB having a stool in the joint with his name on it. Baker on guitar, drums, bass, and a Caucasian organ player that had to be one third of Baker's age. I always wonder how these associations happen, the kid looked like he could have been GB's paperboy. The band was tight and breezed through a nice set of soul and blues numbers. Excellent cover of Muddy Waters' Mannish Boy was the highlight.
