When J.J. performs it’s a demonstration of years of hard work and attention to detail. He plays fast and clean, as a musician that knows the ins and outs of his instrument and material. Lisa “Not That Kind of Doctor” Nielson is an easy going intellectual that can be found gigging as a kick ass bassist as part of The Desiatos. In this performance, drummer Don Shumaker stepped in to keep the beat with an intuitive performance.

For this video, the Reverend Double J and his band performed a collection of originals and favorites for the crowd at Water Street Tavern in Kent, Ohio.

J.J. and I have gone through the two hour set and selected some performances to share.

The selected tracks, in order:

1. “Shake Your Moneymaker” by Elmore James
2. “Take Me Down to Memphis” by J.J. Vicars
3. “Long Way from Home” by J.J. Vicars
4. “Wang Dang Doodle” by Willie Dixon, arranged by J.J. Vicars
5. “Last Train Home” by J.J. Vicars
6. “Rumble” by Link Wray

This twenty minute video is a great diversion full of rockin’ electric goodness.
