If you're down and out and you feel real hurt

Come on over to the place where I work

And all your loneliness I'll try to soothe

I'll play the #Blues for you



Don't be afraid come on in

You might run across some of your old friends

All your loneliness I gotta soothe

I'll play the blues for you



I got no big name and I ain't no big star

I play the blues for you on my guitar

All your loneliness I'll try to soothe

I 'll play the blues for you



As he grew up in the L.A. area, Daniel was heavily influenced by the blues greats Albert KIng, B.B. King, and Albert Collins. As a kid, Daniel would hang outside clubs like the Golden Bear in Huntington Beach to hear these blues legends perform and wait for a glimpse of them through the curtains. After cutting his teeth in South Central L.A. blues clubs with “Mighty Mouth” Delmar Evans, who worked with the Johnny Otis Show, Castro backed other great artists from Otis’ band, including Pee Wee Crayton and Little Esther Phillips. He also recorded and toured with many other artists including legendary Small Faces singer-bassist Ronnie Lane.
