Subject: RE: BS: Bobert's CD Cover Design Contest
OK, morons, especially you dianavan and bobert:

I play bluegrass periodically with a group that does straight ahead bluegrass and something we call "swing-grass" and also at some jam sessions.


Lately I have been performing much more frequently by myself as a solo act in clubs and other decent venues.

Obviously your knowledge of folk music is extremely limited. The Dean Martin standard I do in my repertoire is "Memories Are Made of This" which written by folk performer Terry Gilkyson who backed Martin on the original 1956 hit with his folk group The Easy Riders. The song is about as 1950s folkie as it gets and I am sure much more knowledable musicologists than you two will agree. This is the only song by Dean Martin I do and quite frankly, it goes over quite well.

So laugh all you want. It is I who is doing the laughing at the amateurish types like yourself. Your not old and black, bobert and your music I am sure is about as phony as what you emulate to be.
