18 Dec 02 - 02:24 AM (#849454) Subject: RE: Mark Graham From: open mike We have had Mark Graham perform in Chico, CA-with a band called Open House (i think) he also has performed with Sandy Silva dancing - he on harmonica, AND she a percussive dancer. They went by the name of Hoof and Mouth. He also plays clarinet, I believe. Bryan Bowers (autoharp) does quite a few of mark's songs. He also has performed with Orville Johnson. Very inventive lyrics!! |

18 Dec 02 - 08:56 AM (#849560) Subject: RE: Mark Graham From: GUEST,Pete Peterson Are there two people named Mark Graham, one of whom writes serious gospel songs (Song in the Night, Great God who Made the Universe) and the other the harmonica player who wrote Festival Love & the rest of the list above? Or do we have a serious case of schizophrenia here? Inquiring minds wish to know. . . |

18 Dec 02 - 01:42 PM (#849724) Subject: RE: Mark Graham From: Joe Offer I wondered about that, too, Pete. Do the Marks have a Website, and are they one or two persons, or a Trinity? Looks like you can buy three of his albums here (click), and here (click) is a review of his "Natural Selections" album. Looks like http://www.mongrelfolk.com may be Graham's Website, and a very cool website it is. -Joe Offer- In my search, I came across this list (click) of funny folk songs. It's too good to pass by. |

18 Dec 02 - 07:05 PM (#849936) Subject: RE: Mark Graham From: Murray MacLeod oj shares the website with the funny songwriting harp blowing Mark. It has always puzzled me that with so many Mark Graham songs on the Digitrad, his funniest one never made it there. Murray |

18 Dec 02 - 08:00 PM (#849974) Subject: RE: Mark Graham From: open mike o.k., o.j. you must be the mongrel orville johnson who i mentioned in the blurb about you guys playing in Chico. I am in the folk music society..I believe your performance there was filmed for showing on a local music t.v. show..i do not get that channel, but did you ever get a copy of the film?? I suspect they may air it occasionally...hope you were contacted appropriately for permission, release, etc. I was at a comtra dance recently (playing bodhran) where there was a film guy who just showed up and started shooting without asking or anything...then i find out he sells videos over the internet...or us??!! i hope not...cameras steal your soul... |

I wonder if you have played on any boats, ships, ferries in the Pacific north west?! Have you seen the video of John Hartford of him on the river boat that he captained? i think it was called the general jackson...perhpas your paths crossed on the river? I think it is connected with the grand old opry...or is that grand ole opry? |
