Richard, Jeremy and Lily,
I have some questions about these blues.
The main question: Is there any special preparation for any of these?
(ball milling, grinding, aging 30 years, mixing only with neutral ph
purified spring water, etc?)
And specific questions:
Leach Chinese Cobalt (faux Gosu)
40 Manganese Ox.
30 Black Iron Ox
20 Black Cobalt Ox
10 Calcined Ochre (yellow? red?, ?)
100 Total
Jeremy Kaiser Blue (By Parts? Do you have Percentages?)
3 Cobalt Carbonate
2 Kaolin (EPK)
1 Manganese Dioxide
1 Red Iron Oxide (Normal, Spanish, Synthetic?)
7 Total
Cardew's Blue
20 Cobalt Carbonate
20 White Tin Ox
20 China Clay
15 Plastic Red Clay
10 Black Managnese Ox
10 Talc Schist
5 Fe2o3
100 Total
And the last question:
Jonny Lang started playing professionally when he was 12. What does a 12
year old know about the blues? ;-) (Sandy's gonna kill me)
Thanks in advance
Russel
