Brian’s blues entry for News is a cautionary tale about a trumpet player who becomes a star in the music world told in first person, with his guitar sitting in for the trumpet.
The character goes from obscurity to fame and…well, you get the story. He eventually falls on hard times trying forma hit and is told he has money to pay back…yawn.
It’s cute. Deacon’s bass playing is actually the star here. The story is trite, the playing mediocre, the singing weak. It’s not a great tune.
