Thread Name: Lyr Req: The Cremation of Sam McGee (R W Service)
Subject: RE: SAM McGEE
Sevice wrote wonderful fiction adventure books too!! Can't find 'em anywhere though. (Debbie McClatchey loves these books and has many of 'em.) The one I've got I bought at a garage sale (called a tag sale in New England) for .25 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Then there was Sam & Kirk McGee on the Granola Opry (more natural than the show in Tennessee)----but I never knew he was cremated???? (smile) Sam McGee was a fine finger picker. Check out his "Railroad Blues"!! Just great. On Arhoolie I believe on a later LP produced by Mike Seeger. (He had an amazing TONGUE!! He wagged it around worse than Michael Jordan!)TRUE
