Subject: RE: folkie proverbs From: GUEST,TJ in San Diego Date: 26 Sep 08 - 01:32 PM I heard the line, "When we finally get this thing in tune, we ought to have it welded" from the Kingston Trio on an old 'live' album back in the 1960's. I heard Travis Edmonson, of Bud & Travis, use a similar line long before that. I'm sure some anonymous banjo picker probably used the same comment at a long forgotten Saturday night get-together somewhere in Appalachia. Point is, the "folk process" takes the accompanying stories, anecdotes and memories right along with the music, doesn't it? |
