Thread Name: Review: Tom Russell and Andrew Hardin in Juneau
Subject: RE: Tom Russell and Andrew Hardin- Great
I like all of these songs - a lot - and would love to do them all, but how many songs can you do from one artist without becoming a cover act for that artist?

Well, I do:

Mineral Wells
Haley's Comet
William Faulkner in Hollywood
Tonight We Ride
The Basque
California Snow
The Sky Above, the Mud Below
Mouth of the Mussellshell
(TR & Ian Tyson co-write)
Claude Dallas (ditto)
No Telling (by Linda Thompson, but in TR's adaptation).

My wife sings lead on Hallie Lonigan.

And I keep meaning to finish learning Gallo Del Cielo.

And my wife keeps meaning to learn When Irish Girls Grow Up

(But we keep forgetting, and singing "Isn't it a pity, when kitty cats throw up!")

Is that too many?

Peter.
