You kidding? Holy shit.

Awesome, yes he is great. I rapped along with most of his songs the other day, fantastic. He still is unsurpassed in the mechanisms of his rhythms, at the least in this language.

Someone sent me this, drunk on stage somewhere in the depth of the country.
He used to tell this story, about the 4 hour trainride and the bottles emptied in that time.
He used to fuck himself up before every show. I cant bear all of it, he breaks himself down.

He was unmistakeably a master.

It's really good to know one doesn't need to he Dutch to hear this.
Very good.
a modest but significant defeat of death.

Or per the song, a gift of it backing off a bit.

Didn't mean anything by the songs.

As far as your friend's death, well I don't like talking about it as I could imagine myself being quite sensitive about it in a similar situation.

For now, some McDowell

repost on account of it getting deleted elsewhere, and good neighbourliness.



Ive been through Mississippi in a bus, not been in either Tennessee or Kentucky, but a strong thirst for the real pulls me toward the region.

Don't let anyone fool you. Hardship is what made these places real.

So I just spent about 20 mins looking for a real version of that Harlan song. But real folk and country has been sanitized, musta happened in the 60s. Not the first time this happens to me with these great songs. That guy I posted singing O Death is a rare exception.

Only blues seems to have survived in its real form, recorded, from them lands.

And even that guy is a little too influenced by Whitney Huston.

Nothing against Whitney, who was an unparalleled genious. But real folk is raw.

Ive never been much of a judge of music.
I like what I like. This is the song Trump won to.
My porch, my moon, my thoughts, my Kentucky that called red first.

Whitney Houston doesn't even allow words. Her death makes it even more impossible.
I call that raw.
Shiiit.
If Whitney Houston isn't raw...
She stayed raw like fate.

Some of these black singers are pretty damn raw even at the top.
She was like 2pac.

But if you want raw raw banjo plucking what is your mind on Woody Guthrie?

For me it cant get raw enough but it never does.

Break me up and tie me down
on a donkeys back
said Joseph to his dear old grave
of many a pickaxe hacked

No, I know what you mean.
The trouble is there is only so much that has been recorded of the really raw before fashion took over.
And so much isn't a lot.
Like fragments of Heraclitus.

The Vestal allure the song gives these women is truly of an age of hardship.
