I get my wine from Waitrose...

And it would depend on the light blue...

"Mr Spaceman" - not exactly a traditional blues song though.
Just slow it down and it works, play the 45 at 33 and a third.

Bet you claim your free copy of The Guardian on your My Waitrose card when you buy it.

I wasn't aware you kept drinks? At least not for long...
Drinks cabinets are for the upper class, wine stoppers are for the middle class, and us plebs are lucky if we get to cut our melted down 78 gramophone records with Co-Op orange juice.
VB has a wine cellar. Dead posh he is.
A wine cellar? Who has wine long enough to need a cellar? And you can't put a wine cellar in a flat, them downstairs keep complaining. Plus it needs defending in the zombie apocalypse, and unless the castle builders were thinking ahead, it's usually an inconvenient distance from the gun room.

Is this the first line of the "Ah ain't got no debt" blues?
How many Blues songs began with "Woke up this morning "? Even the Byrds did one. 20 Cress points for the title.
Best newspaper cartoon I ever saw was when John Lee Hooker died and the next day there was a cartoon of him slumped over his guitar with the caption.. "Well, ah didn't wake up this mornin"

Don't forget his dog being resurrected, his truck starting up, his mother no longer being a prostitute and his daddy showing up again.
