Can Dwight Man sing the blues? It’s hard to say, but he definitely paid his dues with British Blues aficionados Cedric Lipton and Harry T. Bagger. Quoting Cedric Lipton:
“The Blues came up the river—I believe it was the Avon or the Mersey—carried by bluesmen like the Pacemakers, the Kinks, and the Dave Clark Five, and the Shadows (pre-Cliff Richards). Now I’m blue in the loo, waiting for the little brown choo-choo.”
I’ve jolly well got the blues, Like a dull crumpet fork in the back
The blues is like a sticky wicket in a lengthy cricket match
I have the Blues Like Fury, I’m Frightfully Blue– (Fraught with the Blues)
