14 Sep 08 - 10:43 PM (#2440539) Subject: RE: Rick fielding From: Beer The first thread I posted was in search of a musician by the name or Ray Materick from the Hamilton Ontario area. Rick replied. I was shocked that this person answered. I guess because I was new to Mudcat and had no idea that folks like Rick Bruce and others were members. Beer (adrien) |

14 Sep 08 - 11:54 PM (#2440584) Subject: RE: Rick fielding From: katlaughing My grandson, Morgan, will be 5 years old in November. He has grown up listening to Rick. His mom made a compilation CD of a bunch of my CDs to listen to at night with him when they went to bed, when he was just a wee baby. She lost the CD she made when they moved into their own house a couple of years ago, BUT Morgan still listens to Rick several times a week. he is over here every day during the week, knows how to turn on my CD changer, dial it to the right slot and hit play to hear Rick whenever he wants. He loves all of Rick's CDs, but esp. the one you mentioned Arnie. Me? I love all of them, too and miss him very much, but I am very glad he tells kids they really should stay in school at the end of that one song as it is one of Morgan's VERY favourites! Love you, Rick, and miss you buckets, kat |

Contact Sandy and Caroline at Folk-Legaacy as bbc listed and of course you can buy any from Dick Greenhaus (of DT fame) at Camsco. I'm so ashamed of you......aw, not really......Just had to kid you a bit about it! Much Love to You! I know you too used to enjoy having Rick around here. He was a special person, a special musician, and a special friend. Much Love to You! Spaw |

16 Sep 08 - 12:43 AM (#2441775) Subject: RE: Rick Fielding From: Big Mick I sang two of his songs, and one of yours, Jed, this weekend at the Michigan Irish Music Festival in the session tent. Had a young guy there that liked songs that fan the flames, so I sang him "Voices of Struggle". Scottish couple loved "Angus Frazier", and the Irish immigrant woman married to a Mexican born immigrant loved "Con Este Beso". Rained like hell all weekend. But I got to spend some lovely quality time with the grand, wee fella himself, Senor Seamus Kennedy. He is a much better musician than he is a poker player.... oops .... gotta run!!! All the best, Mick |

16 Sep 08 - 01:18 AM (#2441787) Subject: RE: Rick Fielding From: GUEST,Blake Madison Like I know my way around Sunset, he knew his way around a fretboard. Funny guy. Kind of guy that would slam a quarter dipped in SuperGlue into a jukebox coin hole just to give himself some space. Had a good fastball, and a nasty slider too. If the curveball hadn't had a tendency to hang on the corner, he might have had a career with the Expos. But instead we got music from him, and plenty of things to think about. He had a way of making you laugh that put people at ease. I guess the freaks in this joint got a lot more out of him than we could ever give back. I know I owed him a Four Roses or two. There's a coffee house where there ain't no juke boxes, or poker machines, or karaoke, where the music goes all night and the whiskey and songs get passed around 'til dawn. Maybe I'll catch up with you there someday, Big Guy. |

It would have been so much more difficult after he'd died..... his words of musical wisdom were gems to be treasured. Good seein' you Mick. Glad I could help fill your coffers. Seamus |
