In the old days, people would have you over to look at their vacation slides from the Grand Canyon on the big screen. Now they post montage YouTube videos. Even at 3 minutes, it still can seem interminable.
This is kind of like that. Random out-of-focus pictures, with some labels. Nothing smooth about it.
But the music! Music is by Bob Swerer, who owned a tropics-themed nightclub where our industrial section is today. He’s smooth. He’s the reason you want to press that play button.
I love it! I had to keep pausing ‘cuz I was trying to listen to the lyrics while reading your notes.
Thanks Barb. Norm gave me that recording. He plays it on his Runaway Fiddle show (Wednesdays 7-9:30, 88.9 FM). He told me Bob Swerer is embarrassed by the recording. If his lawyers call, I’ll have to take it down.
I have a Bob Swerer album called SUMMER WIND, with tons of great covers. I was actually thinking of playing it on my show and asking if he’d like to be interviewed about it…
I NEED a copy of that recording by Bob Swerer!! I loved it!
the notes are great! i laughed out loud at the horse comment.
