Miracle At Borough Hall Station

One of the greatest things about Christmas in New York is the subway musicians you are lucky enough to occasionally hear over the racket of the train. This morning, my commute was rendered divine by a mystery guitar player/singer known only as Michael. He plays an acoustic Cameo guitar and wear boots. Also, he has a wonderful ability to play everything as though it were a talking blues song. The best example of this is his fantastic rendition of Melle Mel's "The Message," performed as though it were a Jimmy Reed song. Fantastic! Totally made my day.
