Subject: RE: New Art Thieme material! 7 Feb.
Katlaughing, that last song I played was by the Joel Rafael Band from California. It seems that Woody Guthrie wrote a poem that seems to be sort of a re-working of the old country tune calle "Stay \All Night, Stay a Little Longer", but he never put any music to it. Joel Rafael got the Guthrie family's permission to add the tune. It, too, seems to be very much like the above mentioned song, but it has such a nice "bounce" to it. It is really a very nice song. It can be found on the band's latest album, "Woodeye" which is all Guthry or Guthrie-related material. Art, the stuff listed above by B K Lick is accurate. I am so glad to see good critiques of the show and your material! Thanks to all and, most especially, Art.
