Subject: RE: Playlists From: Mudlark Date: 21 Nov 02 - 09:26 PM Bullfrog...Miss the Mississippi and You Aint Goin' Nowhere are 2 of my favorites as well. I always hear EmmyLou doing Miss the Miss. in my head when I sing it, which is fortunate as she sounded a lot better than I do! |

Subject: RE: Playlists From: Jerry Rasmussen Date: 21 Nov 02 - 08:48 PM Momma Told Me Not To Come was written by Randy Newman, C.. What a lot of great songs on these lists... Clinton, I can understand why you have to put a sampling on, like all of us. But the choice of the songs you choose to list tell a lot about your music, and you... for that matter. Keep 'em coming.. Jerry |

A few of the things I play almost every time I practice: Geordie Stawberry Faire Next Market Day The Brown Dog Moved Thru the Fair Come All you Fair and Tender Ladies Once I Had a Sweetheart Lass from the Low Country Blow the Candles Out I Gave my love an Apple Carlton Weaver Great Silkie 4 Marys Dont Go to Sea Once More Bonnie Ship the Diamond We'll Rant/Roar Farewell to Tarwaithe Quiet Faith of Man I'll Keep the Old Place Moonshiner's Song Roll on Buddy Wagoner's Lad John O'Dreams Don't Let Me Be Lonely Tonite Sweet Baby James Close Your Eyes Little Man You're Crying Darktown Strutter's Ball Sunny Side of the Street Swt Georgia Brown All of Me Alabama Bound My Blue Heaven Gonna Sit Right Dn and Write myself a letter Ain't Misbehavin' |

Subject: Playlists From: Jerry Rasmussen Date: 20 Nov 02 - 05:46 PM Wilco suggested this thread, and I thought it was a great idea. He asked me to post the playlist for my gospel quartet, the Gospel Messengers. Like most of us, our playlist is way too long to post... we'll break Max's computer after the first half a dozen postings. So, I'll just do a couple dozen.... It would be really interesting to me to see what you do... I'll do most of these with sources where we learned them: How I Got Over - Fairfield Four Oh, Why? - The Five Blind Boys I've Tried - Chris Kenner How Much Do I Owe Him? - The Radio Four Brightly Beams - The Sensational Nightingales Trouble In My Way - The Highway QC's Crying In The Chapel - The Orioles One Of These Days - Bells Of Joy Every Knee Has Got To Bow - Fairfield Four Roll Jordan, Roll -Fairfield Four Burying Ground - Sensational Nightingales Looking Back - Nat King Cole He Looked Beyond My Faults - osmosis Angel Band - everyone Farther Along - Harmonizing Four Only Believe - Harmonizing Four Traveling Shoes - Mitchell's Christian Singers And then several songs I wrote... Give you an idea.... how about yours? Jerry |
