Hi there thanks for looking!...I’m "Slinky Jinx" (alias) from Cornwall on the Southwest coast of England! I play Delta style acoustic bottleneck blues and make bottleneck slides from recycled bottles...Hope you like my offering, I like laughter!...Anyway it’s all comedy! My recordings were done on ancient gear held together with black tape and blobs of solder in harsh conditions by friends of mine who had already had a few drinks!...My thanks to them!...OK that’s it for blurb...After listening to mine I can guarantee you some great Blues, Folk, Country and Bluegrass in my list of friends! That’s all then folks, Y’all come back now ye hear!
