Aarrhhh ye scurvy sons (and daughters) of sea-rats, the pesky pluckers have been at it again.

First done by Dock Boggs back in the 20s, it's a great piece of melancholy parafunalia. Eerie to think it's a suicide note and reassuring to know he was still a tough old bird 40 years later.
one of those 'it was written even before i started' songs that just rolls out like magic
i tried to keep it simple so as not to destroy the vibe
first finished (if unmixed) track for RPM 2010
Surprise!!
There's a video for this now. Not a big production job, but ... actually there's no 'buts'. It's genuine lo-fi small production. My favourite :-)
Cave Street posted a track recently, their contribution to the Woody Guthrie Project, organised by Akron Family.

I wanted to take a shot at this too, so here's my demo. It was really just half…
Eloquent, tuneful and moving - I look forward to perusing the back catalog you've assembled here.
How're things in your neck of the woods? Glad to see you're keeping busy.
Look for a PM from me soon.

Again i'd love some feedback
I like the feel and the mix
do the lyrics work?
recorded t'night in an hour after trying all day to get the verse lyrics rammed into another tune
A fun childrens tune from 2008, it really ought to be a hot fiddle tune but i don't have a hot fiddle.
Old fox coming down the road now Bunny Bunny
Run Run Bunny Bunny Go
White tails bobbing in the air there funny bunny
Go Go Bunny Bunny Run…
Ever since i heard Cave Street's Creator Protector Destroyer (from their 2010 RPM album) run from that song back into the opening didj of Onion Bell (the first track) i wanted to put the lyrics to that pulsing energy, and today i had time to give…

beautiful - and inspired by Dave' comment i have to chime in that it's like finding an old 78 with no label in a garage sale and taking it home and finding out it's Billie Holiday
this is one i have to stop tweaking - six versions and i still don't get what i hear in my head
would love some crit for this one as it's doing my head in
thanks
Here is the "more complete" track I promised with backing vocals.
A song about loving the real me...who do i see when i look in the mirror? Do I love what I see?....i really want to.
your wooden fingers have felt before
and now they…

Great Texas Blues song.I like the fact that a classic blues tune like this was written right here in East Texas.These songs are truly part of the history of this area, trains still run the tracks, but not nearly as important nowadays to the people…
This is really a true story.
No, really...

Comments on Gumbo's stuff
Seems like there ought to be 11 or 12 seas by now, what with inflation and all. Hugely enjoyed.
This was fun to listen to...Aarrhhh!
Oh Gumbo, I do love your Pirate Day songs. How the heck do you manage to sound so Cornish? Fascinating! Proper job my 'ansome.
Yeah hooo, shiver me timbers. I love this one. Great sea song. Damn fine.
FNG!
walk de plank matey. Yarrrr.
Yeah, definitely nailed the Woody Guthrie and Billy Bragg feeling. Love it.

this is so sweet! wicked cheeky lyrics
Cool! Missed this one. How's things on the west coast of Eire?
As always, Gumbo, just terrific musicianship! Holy friggin' Woody Guthrie reincarnated!

Every time I get lost while out running this song plays in my head.
hehe very kool
Bunny track is funny and Cloud makes a movie in my head - Refreshing and Cool sounds.
Well done!!
Was not Woody Arlo's dad? I am not as familiar with Woody Guthrie's body of work,homework for me then,this is cool.
My kind of blues,spot on matey,spot on.
This has a cajun zydeco sound and rhythm to it,I can hear accordions or as you say a hot fiddle sawing away behind it,well cool.
Thanks for the comments. Great fun to play along too.
