Music for Old Hippies and Floridsys

[floridays]

Jerry is the ideal messenger for this kind of hardscrabble folklore, imbued with the “we will survive” sentiment embraced by The Dead and their fans.

1920 when he stepped to the bar
Drank to the dregs of the whiskey jar
1930 when the walls caved in
He made his way selling red-eyed gin

Tumble down shack in Big Foot County
Snowed so hard that the roof caved in
Delilah Jones went to meet her God
And the old man never was the same again

I know that one old man, haven't heard it for a long, long time, my fault I guess, actually I know . Thanks for putting it up, thank you my friend.

When I referred to you as "old man" I did it as an old man myself and thought of this only when I typed the words old man, great song

@olroadbeech, add some more good stuff,

A local group that has been around forever it seems.
Charlie Starr is the lead singer and a nice guitarist.

This is an acoustic version I ran across ...

They are a band at 111 Festival in Manchester Tn in Oct, my brother wants me to roll up for it, great band,

I like their music, not a bad lineup for the three days in Tennessee either.

I love Bluegrass and this guy and Doc Watson turned me on to Bluegrass back in the mid 70's.
If you owned LP records, this will resonate with ya.
A bit goofy but fun too!

Not goofy, it is what it was, Ever heard of Vassar Clements?

Oh yeah ... seen him a few times back in the 70's and 80's.
Great violinist and a good fiddle player too!
A Bluegrass festival I go to has a Vasser memorial stage.

Stick Figure has a new album out and this song is with Slightly Stoopid.
I like it but only heard once ... we'll see.

Definitely a Winner!

Check this one out ... just a really good Rasta song!
WITH HEADPHONES or a good hi-fi system.

[Old Man Jingles]

That's good!
I've seen Stephen Marley before, once with his brother Ziggy and once out on his own ...
I'll keep an eye out for his nephew Skip in the future.

OK ... back to my college daze when I first became familiar with Texas Blues.

I ran across this version of Dear Mr. Fantasy by CSN ... before Neil came onboard.

The apples don't fall far from the tree in the Marley Klan.
