Toilet Lid Boogie

I was going through my song ideas folder and stumbled across this lyric that I wrote ages ago… so long ago I have no clue what inspired it. Certainly long before I ever thought up my “Banjo-centric” schtick. But this is a tune that needs a banjo if I ever heard one. After a little experimenting I realized the banjo needed to just back off into an old-time plectrum banjo strum.

So this tune has it all. There’s echos of Satchmo. A little chorus by the Andrews Brothers (har!) and… well, I’m givin’ it away. Get your boogie boots and and get ready to jive.

Very Creative! I'm trying to think back . . . I think this the first song on the subject that I have heard. I like your singing styles and harmonica too. Plenty of boogie here, oh yeah!

Saved!
