It was on November 22nd, 1995 that I saw a band called A Love Supreme play at Blackbyrd Myoozik in Edmonton. A Love Supreme was a group from Edmonton led by guitarist/vocalist Lester Quitzau, one of many great projects he has been in. Lester is a blues guitarist that I first heard and met back in the late 80's when I worked at restaurant/bar called Billy Budd's, which at that time was a blues bar. At the time Quitzau had a group called the Lounge Lizards who played some rocking blues music and were so damn good. And this show at Blackbyrd was when the record shop was located by the University of Alberta by the High Level Bridge. This was one of the first times I had been to the shop and have been going ever since. Blackbyrd Myoozik has been around for over 30 years now and are now located on Whyte Avenue in Edmonton. A great show and a great introduction to an awesome record shop.
