Good evening to John and fellow listeners

Never heard this Loudon Wainright ode to "bad girl" figure skater Tonya Harding ... ha!

When I saw him perform it live.He couldn’t keep a straight face.

"Everything after this will be Subsequent Songs..." Words of wisdom, and yet another reason I tune in! :)

hmpf. Will Here are you and Bill and Bonnie

Just noticed that very same thing! Thanks!

Never heard Fairport’ version of this. Great vocals but

By Richard Thompson.

My! "Bristlecone Pine" by Eliza Gilkyson is haunting. And powerful in setting the perspective (when Jesus was gathering disciples, some bristlecone pines were already a thousand years old!). Eliza Gilkyson is a singer-songwriter in the Laurie Lewis mode, and that's meant as a high compliment. I'll check out her new album.

I wish there was footage of Charlie Poole and the Ramblers visiting New York City..

Holy Modal Rounders @Prallsville Mill with Adam Brodsky might have been worst concert I ever attended.However all other Prallsville Mill.shows I attended.were excellent.

This classic Holy Modal Rounders version of "Bound to Lose" documents that Stampfel & Weber were capable of a keenly powerfully duet harmony blend. Wow!

@ Patrick White (1) As a major Modals fan, I'm sorry to read of your disappointing experience. When was this? I caught them at Prallsville Mill a-way on back in 2000. I don't recall that they had an opening act, but I do remember what a fab show it was.

Adam Brodsky was the folk singer who used the f word throughout his music.The Modals were a little under the influence.I left at halftime while one of the modals was relieving himself in the nearby creek.

Was wondering why the program was titled If I lose.I feel like Homer Simpson.Doh Doh.

@ Patrick White (1) Damn, that's all a shame. And not the Modals show that I saw and greatly enjoyed.

It’s okay Richard.every subsequent show was wonderful Reilly and Maloney Howard Fishman Geoff Muldaur Beppe Jim Kweskin Guy Davis some I forget right now.

Looking forward next week to Johns annual Super Bowl show.Hoping to hear Andy Griffiths They call it football.

Good idea. re Andy Griffith.

I watch the game volume down WPRB on.

If I order that LP does Music you can’t hear get a cut out of it.

@ Patrick White (1) Yep, Geoff Muldaur, Jim Kweskin, Happy Traum, Beppe Gambetta ... at Prallsville Mill, all xlnt. Looking forward to Beppe, and Tim O'Brien with Jan Fabricius at the Mill.

Richard that might be my all time favorite concert venue.

HA! "Rickki Don't Lose That Number" by Frank Solivan & Dirty Kitchen. Will the world ever recover for Steely Dan, bluegrass style? Sure! The Dead South just released a killer bluegrass version of the Doors' "People Are Strange."

Terrific Rikki cover

Trying to imagine any other show pairing "Rikki Don't Lose That Number" with "Does Your Chewing Gum Lose Its Flavor..."

Excellent!

I think it’s high time for a Skiffle revival..

Thanks John-until next Sunday.These two hour shows pass by too quick..

Hi John! Many thanks for this great tune!

*tunes*

@ Patrick White (1) Yessir! John Lennon's youthful band the Quarrymen (which of course eventually morphed into the Beatles) started out as a skiffle group. It even had (immediately pre-Paul McCartney's joining up) a real 5-string, full resonator banjo in it played by Rod Davis, who went on to be a stalwart of the British folk-bluegrass scene (and still is).

Great show as usual John. We'll be listening next week.

John once very kindly had me on the show talking about a Bluegrass Unlimited magazine article I'd written on Rod, with recordings by Rod (on his own and as a member of the Quarrymen Reunions Band) and ... yes, skiffle with Lonnie Donegan!

Thanks, as always, John!

Thks, great show!

Thank you. Great comments. Fun to read.
