And my #SaturdayMorningGuitar proceeded on to include #CowboyJunkies, #IanTyson and #CrowdedHouse.

With the latter, I noticed while noodling with the intro, that one could probably do a kind of funky Spanish-guitar mashup of "Don't Dream It's Over" and #TheEagles's "Hotel California."

Might need to explore that a bit more. The subject matter kind of works together too.

IAN TYSON
"BLUE MOON"

Ian Tyson - Topic

This track comes from the Ian Tyson album, "Live at Longview."

Though I could be mistaken, it seems to me this live album may have been recorded after Ian Tyson lost his voice and worked hard to get it back.

Stephen Hardy Palmer: Simple Folk-Singing Road-Survivor Raised on gospel, country and the blues, the old time influences on a young prairie picker with a love of Doc Watson made him a good fit for psychedelic folk-rock bands touring and playing support for most of the big name suspects during the 60s UK invasion. And then more steady dues paid as guitarist-for-hire in country bands working the rural Alberta bar scene. He started using his voice only in the 80s, when he picked some west-coast time to study music a bit more formally. But it wasn't til he returned home to care for his mother that he found personal respite and freedom in becoming a solo performer. Fifty years as a traveling musician is a lot of road, and Steve Palmer is still playing and still touring. Grown enough to sing about life and simple pleasures with all the unhurried authority of a quiet and simple pleasures with all the unhurried authority of a quiet and simple folk-singing road-survivor.

@SonofaGeorge Wife and I met at a Lightfoot concert in 1973 in DAR Constitution hall in DC. His passage is, in a way, a passage for us, too.
