Get off my LAWN! "Grumpy Old Farts"

[Haroldo]

Otis was a hard drinking reporter. Floyd was in charge of social media.

Your talents are wasted here.....

 

[GonePlaid]

Even tho' I helped build the damned things (railroads) as a sprout, I don't know what 'railfanning' is. What is it?

Watching trains go by noticing what engines, types of cars etc.

 

[GonePlaid]

Something like these folks?

​

Ah! the obscure 13 1/2 bar phrases.

 

[GonePlaid]

^^^what he said!!

We do this one. I have trouble with the changes.

NOW we're getting close to my roots. My mom was a West Virginia hillbilly and those people could harmonize like nobody's business. I come to it honestly. I don't know why or how, but I swear it's in the blood with some of us.

 

[Passinwind]

What on earth did I just listen to?

My next open mic choice, methinks. I know just the pair of female vocalists to sell it too.

 

[Passinwind]

For me, the high point is her singing 'Oh-hey-oh-hey-oh' pretty much at the very end, but I pretty much think it's all a work of genius. I think, but am not sure, Tom Constantin plays on this record.

ETA: Ixnay on the Constantin. He plays on other Kaiser records, tho.' Ya got yer Andy West playing bass, tho'.

Way cool, thanks for posting that. I could see that working at our Friday night Americana jam too.

A couple of family bands I have seen over the years:




(Not the bassist, however) They could have been really big if they had called themselves the Auger Bits................

 

[LBS-bass]

Love me some Brian Auger!

 

[Jeff Scott]

I've seen Brian many times, starting in 1973 when Closer To It hit. Some of my formative bass playing studies was learning his songs, back in the day.

Well there's the take. Andy of Mayberry as film noir. Andy as the hard-bitten detective, not certain how to work in Opie Cunningham?

Watching trains go by noticing what engines, types of cars etc.

Voting for "railheads".

We do this one. I have trouble with the changes.

I have trouble with all changes

Yeh, saw this last night too.

They could have been really big if they had called themselves the Auger Bits................

@Jeff Scott said this, out loud, in front of other people.

So the other Bits, singer and drummer, are sibs?

 

[GwenOnBass]

[Haroldo]

Oh noes they ain't or oh noes that would be a not-wonderful thing?

 

[GwenOnBass]

Oh noes they ain't or oh noes that would be a not-wonderful thing?
