31 May 17 - 03:38 AM (#3858015) Subject: RE: DTStudy: Here's to You Rounders From: Joe Offer I wish Art Thieme were still around, so he could tell us more about this song. Anybody know who Don Lange is/was? Here's what Art had to say back in 1999. We miss you, Art.

just a bit askew from your actual topic would be a fine song by Don Lange, still a fine singer but now making exceptional wine out in Oregon, called "Here's To You Rounders". Don allowed me to record it on my first LP for Kicking Mule,(KM-150), __Outright Boldfaced Lies__, even before he did that himself. Priscilla Herdman did it later and several others that don't come to mind right away. Don's version was on Flying Fish. Here's the Don Lange recording: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EIO6svDFsJk Ed Trickett / Bok-Muir-Trickett: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q0iiyUGiJRo |

31 May 17 - 02:59 PM (#3858164) Subject: RE: DTStudy: Here's to You Rounders From: Joe Offer Don't know how to fix the links, Hootenanny. I'm supposing you're in Europe or on those little Brexit islands offshore, and the videos may be blocked where you live. The links work here in California. Does this Fred Holstein link work better for you? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YHZD35tiy5o And another Don Lange link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L_C-RZL2oXo -Joe- |

31 May 17 - 05:14 PM (#3858198) Subject: RE: DTStudy: Here's to You Rounders From: Bonnie Shaljean I liked it so much that I actually wrote to Don c/o (???) Sing Out magazine - or one of those - asking how I could get ahold of this song, and he wrote me a lovely reply, enclosing it. What a gent. |
