Notes:

Uncle Jeff started off on the political side with Arthur "Guitar Boogie" Smith and quick investigation revealed Smith co-wrote the banjo instrumental "Feudin’ Banjos" that later became the audio icon of the film Deliverance.

The playlist moved through the first half hour in classic form and then... sensitive violins showed up in the background. Folk music seeped in through a crack and only one thing could stop the madness. Spaghetti and Surf! Yep, James Taylor was influenced big-time by the Folkies, but today it seemed so, so painful. Of course Jeff can back up his choices like a set of Britannica's, but JT is just out of place for me. As it goes, you got to endure the low to experience the high. An enjoyable run of Ennio inspiration made up for it all. I especially enjoyed I Cosmonauti and new DeVotchKa. The closing James Blackshaw trak was also fine.

Post show cocktails at the Rio Grande. Great food. Great service. We basked on the super comfortable roof-top patio enjoying the sun and talking music sprinkled with a little politics (depressing).

Ukulele Loki's Gadabout Orchestra will release their CD at a Fox Theatre
performance on April 13th, also appearing Paper Bird.

Sidebar; on the way home slipped into the Eldorado General Store for Daz Bog and ended up sleeping for 1/2 hour in a lawn chair behind the place. The effects of daylight savings time no doubt. See ya next week. Due to technical difficulties the podcast will not be available. Check the Denver/Boulder concert scene and go see some live music.
