DJ Farraginous

By rayspeen

I am listening to all of the records I have, starting with ones from high school and collage, then on to the ones I bought more recently, and eventually I’ll get to 45’s. After that I’ll move on to CD’s, but by that time CD’s will most likely be a format of the not-so-nostalgic past.

    Hey DJ Farraginous,

    Enjoyed your review of Ja Bluezy at the Delta Lady featuring Paul Bouillet.
    I just heard tonight of his passing. Paul was a dear friend of mine that I
    haven’t seen for some time. I met Paul in the mid 80s when I first started writing
    songs. He kind of took me under his wing and showed me some stuff on the guitar.

    It didn’t end well for Paul. He was on a locked ward of a retirement home in Detroit
    when he died. He had signed over his belongings to some attorney, so he left nothing behind.
    His cousin Arty, I hear, had him cremated and scattered his ashes in the potters field with out
    as much as a memorial service. Paul deserved a lot better than that.

    I think I may have to dig up my unreleased recordings that I made with Paul back in the day and
    post them as a tribute to a truly great player and a one of a kind human being. He played with such great sensitivity and feeling. His Gypsy grandma told him he had the curse, but I know it
    was a true gift from above. And I’m sure they’re enjoying his playing in the spirit world.

    God bless you brother and rest in peace.

      Ken, I’m sorry to say I no longer have a copy of that record. I seem to lose most of my records every time I move! I know that it’s not an easy one to find. You can try registering with the Discogs website and putting in a request for it, and anyone on there with a copy to sell will see your request – it works quite well. If I come across a copy again, I’ll get back to you. Love to Della Joy.
