RandyShields Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 I’m back with some kids playing country/bluegrass music. This is the Cotton Picken Kids doing I’ll Fly Away, one of my favorite Ol’ Timey tunes from Oh Brother Where Art Thou. I had not heard of them and it came up on my YouTube feed. The first 1:12 is horribly slow, but skip to that point and the beat picks up. This is maybe not as good as the Gillian Welch and Alison Krauss version, but these kids are fantastic. Lots of sweet harmonies with many instruments, including a banjo, regular and resonator guitars, violins, and mandolin Just ignore dad in the back on the bass. He is not a kid. 2 Link to comment

Dennis Andress Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 This woman’s voice deserves a lot of clear watts… And, please, find somewhere that streams more bits than YouTube. 2 Link to comment

Skywagon Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 Been listening to Eva for years....hard to believe she passed away so early. I've probably got 5-6 or her songs in my playlist. Link to comment

Hosstage Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 We used to crank Teenage Wasteland, I mean Baba O'Riley, often at a friend's house. His brother had a sweet 70's stereo set up and we'd abuse the hell out of it. Link to comment

Like when I'm riding in Texas near El Paso and Marty Robbins' - El Paso comes on or riding in Idaho and the B-52's - My Own Private Idaho comes on. Both of these things happened to me with my ipod set to shuffle and I'm still wondering how a standard iPod without gps or a wifi connection knows where I am. 1 Link to comment

Happened once for me -- riding through the Green River Gorge area in NC and CCR's Green River started playing. Very cool. Link to comment
John Ranalletta Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 Just replaced my phone and noticed tunes I'd purchased and hidden. Forgot Gregory Porter's stuff in the pile. Chill. Link to comment
John Ranalletta Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 Pour a drink, dim the lights, sit back & listen. Joe Pass & Red Mitchell. Genius. 2 Link to comment

wbw6cos Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 So, stay away from Brad while he is in his zone. Got it. 2 Link to comment
John Ranalletta Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 "Fast Cars" is a long-time favorite and I wouldn't have thought pairing Tracy with Luke Combs would be magic. 1 Link to comment
