For #MusicMusiciansAndMashups on #JukeboxFridayNight, here's "Bridges" by Ani DiFranco, spinning up a song using spoken thoughts from Utah Phillips, an American folk singer, storyteller, poet and labor organizer.

"“You sing a lot about the past
You always sing about the past
You kind of live in the past, you know?”
And I say to him, “I can go outside and pick up a rock that’s older than the oldest song you know
And bring it back here and drop it on your foot
Now the past didn’t go anywhere, did it?
It’s right here, right now"

Going thru #BuffaloNY on my way to pick up my daughter from college, I had to try to stop by #RighteousBabeRecords. Apparently #AniDiFranco moved it down to NOLA a few years ago but I found the old location in a church. And as I walked up, her old manager Scott walked out. He was great and told me they have a club in the basement and that I should check out the original wings place and where to find some nice local culture.

Buffalo, NY-native Ani DiFranco's "Joyful Girl", from her 1996 album "Dilate" on the Righteous Babe Records label:

"Everything I do is judged

And they mostly get it wrong

But oh well

'Cause the bathroom mirror has not budged

And the woman who lives there can tell

The truth from the stuff that they say

And, she looks me in the eye

And says "would you prefer the easy way?

No? Well, okay, then ...

Don't cry."

Today I learned: Ani DiFranco primarily uses the Alvarez-Yairi WY1 Bob Weir Signature acoustic guitar 👀

Bob Weir of course is the "musician and songwriter best known as a founding member of the Grateful Dead"

Lyrics from a previous era:

"I might go out to that phone booth

And leave a veiled invitation on your machine"

Ani DiFranco sings Pete Seeger's song, "My Name Is Lisa Kalvelage"

"And perhaps I can tell my children six
And later on their own children
That at least in the future they need not be silent
When they are asked, 'Where was your mother, when?'"
