There I was, just sitting here in my daily currents and undercurrents of life...then I got around to really paying more attention to a recent email from ole ham radio & college buddy, Bill Byrom of Irving, TX. In the email, he threw out a couple of links that made my hair (and my backbone) just stand up straight, wake up from daily life and decide that there might be more out there than meets the ear. Check it out.
Quoting:
was listening to Undercurrents on the local KXT public FM station and heard the Buddy Miller band version of the old Roger Miller (unrelated, as far as I know) song Dang Me. Listen to these versions:
- Roger Miller (who wrote Dang Me) on Hee Haw. It started out as a comedic country song.
- The Majestic Silver Strings (featuring Marc Anthony Thompson on vocals) live -- isn't this a great blues version! That's Buddy Miller with Bill Frisell, Marc Ribot and Greg Leisz.
- Buddy Miller (featuring Chocolate Genius - Marc Anthony Thompson) -- The studio version I heard on Undercurrents.
