It's Friday, and I've got no special beef against the world, no cockamamie ideas, no over-serious personal reflections, no boobs to mock, no technology to moan about nor communication crimes to groan about.
I'm not sure this has ever happened to me before.
So I thought I'd do what I do when I'm driving in the car with my friends and we pause long enough to hear the air conditioning blow.
I'll play my favorite Woody Guthrie song, "Mean Talkin' Blues." If you've never heard it, I bet you'll like it. If you have heard it, you'll thank me for reminding you to give it another listen.
Have a good weekend, all.
Howdy.
My name is Joel Landy. For the last nine years I have been one of the performers playing at the annual Woody Guthrie Birthday Bash in NYC. This year I’ll be playing Mean Talkin’ Blues. I see that you like it as much as I do. Do you know the history about the song…when it was written, etc. I’d like to share that with the audience.
Thanks!
If you are in New York on July 12 give me a holler.
