He3y, KT! How nice that you dropped by. Ebbie was just talking about you, yesterday. Today is another rainy day and I've pulled out my 6 Bob Scobey, Clancy Hayes CDs and am looking forward to putting together a "favorite tracks" CD. When you mention songs about places, it occurs to me that Bob Scobey and Clancy did a lot of those kinds of songs... could do a whole CD just of those:

Here are some:

   St. Louis Blues
   Coney Island Washboard
   Beale Street Blues
   Sailing Down To Chesapeake Bay
   Wolverine Blues (about the Wolverine state, Michigan)
   Chicago
   Peoria
   Hindustan (Where we stopped to rest our mighty caravan)
   Memphis Blues
   When The Midnight Choo Choo Leaves For Alabam
   Mississippi Mud
   Parson, Kansas Blues
   Mobile

If you're interested, KT, I'd be glad to send you a copy of the CD I'm putting together... it won't have all of these songs on it, because there are so many other great songs that I want to include.

Long Gone, which I will put on as one of my favorites has the line "He's long gone from Bowling Green" and "The Guard forgot to close the Golden Gate."

I listened to the "Huh" CD I put together three times last night (and it's close to an hour long. Music soothes the Gentle Dane.
