Time

They say that there really is enough time in the day, and that all the time you have is all you really need. I dunno about that. I keep spinning like a compass that can't find North between the four musical bearings: writing, recording, rehearsal, and road. I just learned "Hoochie Coochie Man" by Mr. Willie Dixon and man! do I love that song! I can Hoochie Coochie all night. Give me a bottle of merlot and a box of "Trader Joes Dark Chocolate Covered Espresso Beans" and Im good to go for hours.

Ive gotten such a strong reaction to Tom Pettys "Mary Jane" live (they were going nuts that night--albeit they were feeling no pain..) that Ive learned "Breakdown". I hope everyone likes that as well. I get the chance to belt that out. Nothin better (OK--the Dark Chocolate Covered Espresso Beans come VERY close though).

As far a time goes, Ive got the best of intentions, lots n lots of really good ideas, steeled ambition, song bits that have outstanding potential, a team that backs me and keeps me moving forward, and my best fans clubmy children--the gmanBlues ankle biters. I've got the world of "indies", and the power tool of the Internet to bring good people together for a song. They say Ive got the time to make it all real--God I hope so.

Ill bet youre no different than me. Too much to see and do, and not enough time. They say the universe, the balance and harmony of nature is perfection itself, and that time is a man made, self imposed concept. There is no time out in outer space you know. There is no day or night; there are no seasons, or years, or times zones. Time is not CONSTANT; even your watch would not run at the same rate in outer space. There really is Only now. Now is forever--figure that one out if you've got the time.

As for me I've got to get back to the Hoochie Coochie man and the espresso beans--I'm starting to slow down!

Peace and Love,
g-man

Author Bio:

Gary Wesselhoff

BIO "g-man Blues" is Gary Wesselhoff, a solo acoustic rocker with a genuine dedication to Chicago Style Blues. Hailing from the Chicago suburbs, he began his musical career in the mid-sixties during the Folk Rock movement. Playing Chicago coffeehouse scene in the early ?70?s, he hit it off with a couple of other folk rockers and began playing under the name Woodlind. Woodlind wrote and performed their own material exclusively?one point boasting a song list of over seventy-five original songs. At the end of his high school years, g-man and Woodlind recorded but never released a double album of songs at Chicagolands famous "Pumpkin Recording Studio" with producer Gary Loizzo (star of the group "The American Breed" who later became renowned for his production of several Styx albums). Over the years the band members eventually drifted apart.

In college g-man met and began playing with two outstanding performers, Bob May, and Ken Zemanek. The three began playing once again under the name of Woodlind. The band grew in size and following. Ken would later progress on to join American English; other band members Scott Bonshire would join Heartsfield, and Jim Williams hooked up with a country band called Crossfyre. Joey Drada currently plays with contemporary Chicago Blues Royalty.

In the interim, g-man dropped out of the business to raise a family.

In 2003 g-man sat in with some friends and immediately decided to return to music. Quotes g-man "When I returned, I discovered something forceful about myself; I found that I had new abilities that were not present when I was a kid?it?s much more than the synergy of practice and focus. I discovered that I could sing more dynamically, play more powerfully, and write better than ever". He began to chase the blues, and worked a blues harp into his act.

In 2005 he launched his Website: gmanblues.com is a successful Website often with hits from countries around the world. It?s at this site that you can sample some of g-man?s music offerings, and see photos of him in action. Currently g-man Blues is writing an album of original songs that has the working title "g-Force", and he is playing around the city. More information can be found at his website.
