Nice looking hay, too! I hope the stuff my neighbor has found for me looks that good. He's bringing me about 400 bales tomorrow... I'm tired of these 25 lb bales of nice stuf and 45lb bales of junk my sheep won't eat.

Dave will be here in Bradford day after tomorrow.

'Cause his photos are there before Dave's. I remember performing with Marshall Dodge in one of the first Hanover (NH) Revels; I was a wee thing in the chorus and he was the Guest Performer, but he made all of us laugh and feel at ease.
And Dave Mallet once gave me a free recording when I helped him sell at the concert break at Eagle Square in Concord (NH).
But then, I can also say I sang with the great Kendall Morse!

Mercy! And this news of a man who once described himself as "a recovering bucolic". Relapse is ever a risk :)

So that's the guy that did "Bert and I". I picked up a tape--"More Bert and I"-- in a thrift shop for no special reason except it was cheap--my son loves it and plays it constantly. The sound effects are especially great.

Nice photo, Kendall. Good to see you and Dave doing some honest work!

Cheerily,

Because he loves his daughter and she loves her horses.

I found the photo without any problem, Sorcha. Scroll down, it's the last one.

What I want to know is, why is Dave Mallet fucking about shifting hay bales with Kendall when he should be spending his time writing more songs as good as "Ballad of St Anne's Reel" ....

I understand that Marshall transcribed "No News" off of an old wax cylinder of a vaudeville routine -- that and others are now standard repertoire. You have to know the Maine stereotype to appreciate

"Where am I?"

"Yer up in a b'loon -- ye damn fool!"

I can't find it.......supposed to be in your profile, right Kendall?

Jeff was kind enough to post that picture in my profile section if you want to see it. Many song writers sing about things of which they know not, but, Dave Mallett is a real farmer.

Here's a link to Kendall's photo page.

I used to ramble in it, but, I forget why.

Haying. What fun.

...Away with the life of a country boy,
Who's allergic to the new-mown hay.

...and, make sure it's dry when you put it away.

For anyone who may think that Dave Mallett is not a real farmer, I'm going to try to post a picture. On a recent visit, we repaired the barn door and stored 100 bales of hay at his place.
