Scott, I thought I had your email address- maybe I do but don't recognize it.
So send it to me at mikepell321@aol and in return I'll send that.
Thanks Mike. Would love to have that track... Unfortunately, my Dad has been gone for 30 years. But thanks for the good thought!
I grew up on the banks of the Snake River basin in Idaho. Great places along that one! Lave rock mesas, Rocky Mountain peaks, white water rapids, and valley's that showcase beach like calm and sandy areas to throw out the blanket and call it a day. Great boating and recreation too... Oh, and the fishing! Some of the best in the world. Just drive a few miles and pick your sport! But I'm not biased or anything like that...
Some great songs come to my mind (apologies if these have been played, I haven't had the time to catch up on all the shows lately)
Didn't realize that Talking Heads tune was a cover! Not a fan of the band but they have one or two that get a passing grade, that is one.
Hahaha... that Running Bear tune brings back some memories. I think my Dad played it often.
Ah - Black Water! Cant believ I missed that one when I was listing the tunes out above... Lots of tunes written after rivers that are named after locations... Mississippi, Tenessee, Rio Grande come to mind... Love the Doobies! (The Band that is).
Nice show!!!
A little late again this week. But I got here.
Maybe I'm in a funk, I don't know, but this half didn't really stand out for me. There were a few well known songs (Take Me To The River, Black Water and Ferry Cross The Mersey), and I liked all of those.
But the unknowns just didn't move me today. I'll give the Golden Pell to the comedy routine by Jackie Vernon. I did enjoy the informational content, you know, that he was the voice of Frosty The Snowman. My three year old loves that movie.
Now it's on to part 2.
What was wrong with your Talking Heads CD? Great song, I actually did know that it was a cover. You impressed?
For a moment there, I thought it was Marlon Brando. Such a sad story and then the punchline. I haven't watched Frosty since I was a kid, I don't watch those holiday shows. Full of false cheer and false messages. They just make me sick. Charlie Brown deserves that little Xmas tree, he has never proved that he needed anything else. He actually deserves no Xmas tree at all. Just sits there and whines all the time about how the world is wrong and how he can't get ahead and how he has no friends except for a rabid dog that's prone to hallucinations. Must be all those concussions from missing that football, he's now only living in a fantasy world. Wouldn't be surprised if old Charlie boy took steroids, that explains the lack of hair.
Doooooooobies!
I could swear someone covered the "Dirty Water" song, but instead of referencing Boston, they used New York. Can't find anything about that though.
Frankie Goes To Hollywood did a cover version of "Ferry Cross The Mersey", it's no bad but it does sound very very much a product of the 80's.
Nice show Mikey Mike! Great first song. I PREDICTED THAT!
