Blues Birthday Bash in Fellsmere, Florida saw the return of Matt "Guitar" Murphy. On November 15th, Matt took the stage with the support from Tim O'Donnell and Phil Ori from The Nouveaux Honkies,  Darrel Raines and George Caldwell from  the Darrel Raines Band and  Frank Bauer from Alvin Jett and the PhatNoiz Band. Matt took the stage right from the start with the group and warmed up quickly. He sang  "Sweet Home Chicago" and then went into sides from his past with Memphis Slim and Junior Parker. Guitarist, Tim O'Donnell would lean in after songs and call out any number of tunes from Matt's past and  Matt would light up and rip right into them just like he played them yesterday. Matt was in great spirits and cracked jokes to the crowd and his playing had the crowd going wild. He played his famed  "Matt's Guitar Boogie" to close the show. Before the song started,  Tim announced to the crowd, "A book of licks could be written just  from this one song. If there are any guitar players in the crowd be careful because this might just scar you for life." The song featured Matt playing some of his signature licks and then licks that just happened on the spot. The crowd gave him a standing O upon his leaving the stage. Matt "Guitar" Murphy is back and his show that night definitely proved that.     Harvey Pyne..
