HELLO ALL! HAVEN'T HAD ACCESS TO A PC IN A LONG WHILE, SO NOT ABLE TO POST MUCH ON THE BOARDS FROM MY WEBBIE, SORRY! HOPE EVERYONE'S SUMMER IS OFF TO A GOOD START! ENJOY IT WHILE IT LASTS, FOLKS! BEFORE WE KNOW IT WINTER WILL BE FAST UPON US..... SO SOAK UP SOME RAYS WHILE YOU CAN.
I AM GOING INTO THE HOSPITAL ON MONDAY FOR SOME SURGERY AND WILL BE ON THE MEND FOR AWHILE. THAT'S WHY I'VE BEEN SCARCE ON HERE OF LATE AS WELL. BUT I WISH YOU ALL, NO MATTER HOW YOU CELEBRATE YOUR HOLIDAYS THE VERY BEST OF WISHES NOW AND IN THE NEW YEAR!
HERE RAY AND THE BOYS ARE DOING ANOTHER OLD BOB WILLS TUNE... "CHEROKEE MAIDEN". TAKE NOTE OF THE CAMEOS BY SEVERAL WELL KNOWN COUNTRY MUSIC PERFORMERS. SEE IF YOU CAN NAME THEM ALL......
PETULA CLARK SINGING "THIS IS MY SONG" FROM THE MOTION PICTURE "THE COUNTESS FROM HONG KONG". WORDS AND MUSIC BY CHARLES CHAPLIN... YES "CHARLIE CHAPLIN" OF SILENT MOVIE FAME, FOLKS!! ALWAYS LOVED THIS LOVELY BRITISH LADY'S VOICE. AND SHE SINGS JUST AS BEAUTIFULLY IN FRENCH TOO!!! TAKE NOTE OF THE FASHIONS OF 1966 THEN ALSO.... MYSTERIOUS IS ALWAYS MUCH MORE SEDUCTIVE THAN "IN YOUR FACE" NUDITY LIKE IT IS NOW!! THIS IS ONE CLASSY & SEXY LADY!! SHE'S GOT MY VOTE ANYWAY.... ENJOY FOLKS!
MAYBE YOU'VE HIT ON A MIGHTY GOOD IDEA THERE, MY FRIEND!!! MAYBE A SPECIFIC NIGHT OF THE WEEK FOR PARTICULAR "THEMES" IS A GOOD WAY TO GO AND STILL NOT LIMIT THE CONTENT OF THE BOARDS IN GENERAL? THE THEME COULD BE CHANGED WEEKLY, AND THE DAY OF THE WEEK COULD BE SET ARBITRARILY WITH A POLL IF NECESSARY. I LIKE THE IDEA!!! AND HAVING A "THEME NIGHT" ALSO OPENS US ALL UP TO SPECIFIC GENRES OF MUSIC WE MIGHT NOT OTHERWISE EXPLORE TOO!! BRAVO!!
YES, THAT IS A GOOD QUESTION!~ AND I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW THE ANSWER TOO! WHAT IS THE THEME FOR TODAY/TONIGHT? AND ARE WE EVER ALLOWED TO GO "OFF TOPIC" (POST A VIDEO THAT DOESN'T FIT THE "THEME OF THE DAY")?
DO Y'ALL REMEMBER WHO USED TO SAY THAT?!! AWWWW.... C'MON NOW! I KNOW YOU DO!!! WELL, Y'ALL GET BUSY NOW AND FIND SOME MORE OF THOSE GREAT BLUEGRASS CLIPS TO POST, OK? I'LL BE BACK LATER TO SEE WHO REMEMBERS THAT FAMOUS ONE WORD INTRODUCTION BY ONE OF COUNTRY MUSIC'S GREATEST COMEDY LEGENDS. CUL FOLKS.... HAVE A GRAND OLE OPRY KIND OF DAY!!
SOMETHING WEIRD SEEMS TO HAPPEN WHEN I TRY AND CUT AND PASTE FROM THIS DANG COMPUTER!! NOT SURE WHAT OR WHY.... BUT IT DOESN'T ALWAYS GRAB THE URL FOR ME, AND THEN WHEN I GO TO POST IT HAS AN OLD ONE IN THERE!!!??? ARGH!!! SORRY FOLKS!! SURE HOPE THIS IS THE RIGHT ONE FOR YOU NOW.....
ONE THING STRUCK ME ABOUT THOSE GALS SINGING THEIR TRIBUTE SONG... THOSE DROP-DEAD GORGEOUS HAUNTING EYES OF THEIRS!! BEAUTIFUL GALS EVERY ONE OF THEM!! MAYBE IT WAS THOSE PEIRCING BLUE EYES OF JUNE'S THAT UNLOCKED POOR OLD JOHNNY'S SOUL???! WHATEVER IT WAS SHE HAD THE KEY TO HIS HEART, THAT'S FOR SURE!! THEY MADE A TRULY GREAT COUPLE.... MAY THEY BOTH REST IN PEACE!
OOPS!!! BACK TO THE DRAWING BOARD..... THAT WASN'T ERNEST TUBB ON THE LAST POST I MADE, SORRY FOLKS!! IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE, BUT APPARENTLY I DIDN'T "PICK UP" THE NEW LINK WHEN I ATTEMPTED TO CUT AND PASTE IT!~? DANG COMPUTERS ARE SO CONFUSING... ARGH!! LET ME GO TRY AND FETCH THE RIGHT ONE AGAIN FOR YOU.... BRB!!!
OKAY FRIENDS.... THE SENILE OLD WOLF IS GOING TO TRY POSTING A VIDEO LINK AGAIN! I WON'T USE THE EMBED LINK THIS TIME AS I DO NOT SEEM TO HAVE THE HANG OF IT.....
WITHOUT FURTHER ADIEU.... HERE IS A GREAT CLIP OF "FIREBALL MAIL". AND I HAVE TO SAY, I TRULY ENJOYED THE PORTION WITH THE DOBRO ON THIS CLIP TOO!!
THEME NIGHTS SOUND LIKE SOME FUN.... AND I AM SURE IT WILL OPEN UP A LOT OF NEW DOORS FOR US ALL TOO!! YES, BILL MONROE IS THE GRAND-DADDY OF BLUEGRASS FOR SURE. BUT LET'S NOT FORGET FLATT & SCRUGGS, OR THE GREAT ERNEST TUBB EITHER!! I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS EVENING'S SELECTIONS..... HAVE AT IT FOLKS!! I'LL BE BACK, CUL!
Radiant2007 :-): I JUST SAW THE NEW PAUL POTTS ALBUM OUT AT BORDER'S RECENTLY... SO SNAP IT UP WHILE IT'S STILL ON SALE FOLKS!!
I'M SURE THIS BRITISH BLOKE IS GOING TO CHANGE THE COURSE OF HIS LIFE WITH THE RELEASE OF THIS NEW ALBUM! HE CERTAINLY DOES SEEM TO BE ABLE TO DRAW OUT THE EMOTION FROM HIS AUDIENCE, DOESN'T HE???!
NICE POST!! ALWAYS GOOD TO SEE SOME OTHER OPERA AND CLASSICAL MUSIC FANS ON THE BOARDS!!
Jim Dandy: HOLY MACKEREL, JIM!! SING! SING! SING! SWING! SWING! SWING!! NOW THAT WAS MUSIC THAT REALLY GOT THE BLOOD PUMPING, WASN'T IT???!! THANKS FOR THAT BLAST FROM THE PAST, BUDDY!!
I REMEMBER MY FATHER LIKED A LOT OF THAT OLD SWING AND BIG BAND MUSIC. ONE OF HIS FAVORITES WAS AN OLD GLENN MILLER TUNE CALLED "ELMER'S TUNE". BUT THE DYNAMIC SWING MUSIC OF GENE KRUPA IS REALLY MORE MY SPEED. THANKS AGAIN FOR SHARING THAT CLIP WITH US. 8^)
TexasToest: WOW!! MIGHTY WURLITZER IS RIGHT!!! THAT WAS A GREAT VIDEO, TT!!! THANKS FOR INCLUDING THAT ONE TOO!!! BEEN A LONGGGG TIME SINCE I'VE HEARD ANYONE PLAY THAT KIND OF ORGAN FOR SURE!
WAS NOT ABLE TO CUT AND PASTE FROM A COMPUTER. IT'S DIFFERENT DOING IT FROM WEBTV.... BUT I TRIED TO GET IT BY WRITING IT DOWN LONGHAND, SO I HOPE THIS WORKS!
DOES ANYONE HERE RECALL A GYPSY JAZZ GUITARIST BY NAME OF D'JANGO REINHARDT? HE WAS FANTASTIC!! WAY AHEAD OF THE REST OF THE FAMOUS INSTRUMENTAL GUITARISTS OF OUR TIME LIKE: LES PAUL, CHET ATKINS AND ROY CLARK TO NAME BUT A FEW.
WELL, I RECENTLY DISCOVERED A YOUNG MAN BY THE NAME OF JOSCHO STEPHAN WHO EXEMPLIFIES THE JAZZ GUITAR STYLINGS OF D'JANGO REINHARDT AND I WANTED TO SHARE THAT WITH YOU! THIS FELLA'S REALLY PHENOMENAL!! CHECK HIM OUT! I SURE HOPE I HAVE THIS URL RIGHT....
Mousetrap: "A BIT OF ALRIGHT" EH, MOUSETRAP? LOL! I TAKE IT YOU LIKE HER BIG HAIR AND THE EXOTIC LATIN LOOK SHE HAS THEN, EH? LOL!! SHE'S A BRIT ACCORDING TO HER ONLINE BIO. BUT I CAN'T SAY SHE SOUNDS MUCH LIKE ONE TO ME.... SOUNDS MORE LIKE A TRANSPLANT FROM NEW JERSEY OR SOMETHING IF YOU ASK ME! LOL!! BUT I DO LIKE HER VOICE THOUGH! IS IT JUST ME, OR DO YOU THINK SHE SOUNDS SIMILAR TO JANIS JOPLIN TOO? NOT EXACTLY, BUT THE RASPY QUALITY TO HER VOICE I MEAN. THERE'S A SIMILARITY THERE I THNK! AND HER TONAL QUALITY SOUND A LOT LIKE A FEMALE SINGER WHOSE NAME I CAN'T QUITE REMEMBER.... WAIT, LET ME THINK.... AH! TIMI YURO!! THAT MIGHT BE IT!! YES, I THINK IT IS!! DOES ANYONE HERE REMEMBER TIMI??? WHAT A FABULOUS VOICE SHE HAD!!! HER BEST RECORDING YEARS WERE IN THE 60'S AND 70'S. POP SINGER WITH A LOT OF BIG HITS, BUT ONE OF HER BEST REMEMBERED SIGNATURE SONGS WAS "HURT". I THINK THIS NEW GAL AMY WINEHOUSE SOUNDS, AND MAYBE EVEN RESEMBLES TIMI YURO SOMEWHAT (BUT NOT THE HAIR!). WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THAT, MOUSETRAP? DO YOU REMEMBER TIMI YURO AT ALL? SHE WAS AN AMERICAN SINGER.... FROM THE WEST COAST I BELIEVE. AT LEAST THAT'S WHERE SHE STARTED HER RECORDING CAREER FROM WHAT I CAN RECALL ANYWAY. SHE MAY HAVE BEEN BORN ELSEWHERE THOUGH. BUT I DO THINK THIS AMY WINEHOUSE HAS A BIT OF TIMI'S LOOK AND HER VOICE CAPACITY TOO!! YES, I'M SURE IT'S TIMI YURO NOW.... THAT'S WHO AMY REMINDS ME OF, YES!!
Jim Dandy: OMG! TINY TIM..... NOW THERE'S A FLASHBACK! AND, YES, I SEEM TO RECALL TINY TIM'S WIDOW, MISS VICKIE, SAYING ON A TELEVISION INTERVIEW THAT HE WAS INDEED BURIED WITH HIS UKE.
Mousetrap: NOW DON'T I WISH I COULD VIEW THESE VIDEOS FROM MY WEBTV???!!! I WOULD LOVE TO SEE THIS UKELLELE ORCHESTRA VIDEO! THAT MUST REALLY BE SOMETHING TO BEHOLD!
HAS ANYONE HEARD OF AMY WINEHOUSE? SOMEONE RECENTLY TOLD ME ABOUT HER. SHE IS FROM GREAT BRITAIN AND IS AN ATTRACTIVE DARK HAIRED BEAUTY WITH "BIG" HAIR. THE SOUND CLIP I HEARD HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH BEING IN REHAB. STRANGE LYRICS IN MY OPINION, BUT SHE HAD A REALLY POWERFUL ALTO VOICE WITH A RASPY, BLUESY, JAZZY SORT OF SOUND TO IT REMINISCENT OF JANIS JOPLIN. I WAS WONDERING IF ANYONE HEAR HAS HEARD OF HER?
THANKS FOR THAT LINK TO LEICESTERSHIRE, NIRVANA! I HAVE BEEN WORRYING ABOUT SOME FRIENDS OVER THERE ACROSS THE POND SINCE READING YOUR POST. I DO HOPE THINGS IMPROVE FOR ALL OF YOU THERE. THERE'S BEEN SOME BAD FLOODING GOING ON HERE IN THE US IN VARIOUS STATES ALSO. IT'S NOT GOOD NEWS, AND MOTHER NATURE ALWAYS SEEMS TO COME UP WITH THE WINNING HAND, DOESN'T SHE?! 8^\
WHERE IS THAT IN RELATION TO ROTHWELL, LEEDS AND LEICESTER? I KNOW SOME PEOPLE IN ENGLAND AND I HAVE NOT HEARD FROM THEM ABOUT THE FLOODS. IS IT IN ISOLATED AREAS ONLY? HOPE IT SUBSIDES SOON FOR YOU, NIRVANA! 8^)
