Heard this on the radio today........... great Voices, Great Lyrics..........


And I can see it now
The red flag waving in the light of day
And they won't take it down
Nothing's gonna change ‘til we all can say…
I believe that I was wrong, I was wrong all along
I believe that I was wrong, I was wrong all along
I believe we move along, we move along, if we can say
I believe that I was wrong

Nina Simone - Mr. Bojangles

Saw these guys on "Bluegrass Underground" on PBS yesterday....
50 years later, and only one original member is missing, due to his passing .......
Nice one LT. I secretly listened to country on my transistor radio through the sixties but when Nitty Gritty Dirt Band's Will the Circle Be Unbroken came out in the early '70s I didn't really know the giants who were guesting on their own old songs on that record. Doc Watson, Maybelle Carter, Jimmy Martin, Roy Acuff, Earl Scruggs and Merle Travis; they were mostly new to me. If you listen to many of my previous posts in this thread you know those are the folks I still listen to today.

There's a recording of Jimmy Ibbotson reminiscing with John McEuen, both NGDB members, about playing with the songwriter, Jerry Jeff Walker night in and night out. I couldn't find it to play here but found this interview of the two of them, Ibbotson and Walker, telling stories about that and other stuff between singing a few old songs unrehearsed. A real rough version of Bojangles starts at 7:12.
I was going to play my favorite version which is John McEuen's instrumental, "Mr. Bojangles (Suite)" from his Acoustic Traveler album. Put [www.youtube.com] in front and this is the link to that[/watch?v=pj9oQoikC4Y].

But in the interview, Jerry Jeff Walker says his favorite version is Nina Simone's which I don't remember hearing before. So here it is instead.

Here is something a little different.

My high school was ethnically diverse. Our marching band had a totally voluntary "drumline" that would break out on the sidelines of football games just for fun. We didn't have the level of equipment that big-time drumlines have today, but we always got the crowd off their seats.

I love the stuf these drumlines are doing today. I just spent the last couple hours listening to some of them. I really like the battles..
