Louis Armstrong - After you`ve gone (1929)

This weeks Louis "Satchmo" Armstrong pick is a one of my favourite vocal tunes

from his earlier recordings...hope you enjoy too

EVERYTHING IS EVERYTHING WITCHI TAI TO(STEREO VERSION)

jUSt got off the blower..er...phone with my sis back in Canada and she was remembering when I would sing and play this tune while stomping around in the wild woods of the Ganaraska Forest...not much on lyric but kinda neeeeet to be an old chanting hippie again..Holy Visions of Carlos_Castaneda, Batdorf!

Mills Brothers - Glow Worm (live, 1957)

Now, the Mills Bros were definitely not cool when I was a kid....heck my Dad liked them. But I was housebound and bedridden (as bedridden as an active 11 year old could be) and I played 78's my Dad had of them and the Ink Spots.....I was hooked....and this number really moves!

Julie Driscoll - Season Of The Witch (1968)

I have posted/blogged this one before (at the Flimwell Papers) in my best cover songs note!

But was out and about in the lovely spring day in the Kent countryside and heard it again as I hiked down a trail in Westerham....so gotta send it along....Brian Auger is a keyboard fave too!

Gene Clark - Tried So Hard

Just one of the most under rated songwriters of that Hippie-Country Music via California and N ew Mexico etc.....

Guess you can tell I was/am a huge Gene Clark fan! Enjoy the vibe..er..tune!

LOUIS ARMSTRONG - PLAY W.C. HANDY 1

yES...SOLid! Just one the best albums the great Mr. Armstrong ever recorded, in my humble opinion, and it's this weeks listenin' to the Greats pick!

The mighty Ganaraska

Spring arrives early back home...though the daffodils are in bloom here in U.K.

the ice is just out back in my hometown in Canada....my sis Jenn, sends me these little Zen moment updates....as still get a pang of homesickness

Five Satins - In the Still of the Night

Oh, just one of my favOrite dowop tunes of all...and it was first heard on our babysitter's little transistor radio....gee whiz....

Wild Magnolias

It ain't Fat Tuesday without some Mardi Gras Indians and a Secondline Parade...I'm cooking up a heap of pancakes for about 50 now...

The Yardbirds - Heart Full Of Soul (Shindig 1965)

Now, this tune most know by another band.....Eric and his Animals

But this one take me back...way back!
