I've got the John Prine dvd Live From Sessions at West 54th on while the railroad tracks behind the house hum along underneath the weight of an Amway.
I should have ended that last sentence with something more poetic sounding than "Amway." Sadly, U.S. Steel & Co. doesn't exactly fill the meter with glowing imagery either.

Goodnight Irene
Last saturday night I got married
Me and my wife settled down
But me and my wife have parted
I’m gonna take another stroll downtown
Irene goodnight (goodnight irene)
Irene goodnight
Goodnight irene, goodnight irene
I’ll get you in my dream
Stop your ramblin’
Stop your gamblin’
Stop stayin’ out late, late at night
Go home to your wife and your family
Sit down by your fireside so bright
Irene goodnight (irene)
Irene goodnight
Goodnight irene, goodnight irene
I’ll get you in my dream
I love irene and I swear I do (yes)
Love ’er, love ’er, love ’er, love ’er, love ’er
Love ’er, love ’er, love ’er, love ’er
Still the sea runs dry
And if irene ever turns her back on me
I’m gonna take morphine and die
Irene goodnight
Goodnight, goodnight, goodnight
Goodnight, goodnight, goodnight
Irene goodnight
Goodnight irene, goodnight irene
I’ll get you in my dream

Didn't know you were a Bristol Rovers fan, LTZ. Shame they lost 0-1 at home to Torquay yesterday.LessThanZero wrote:Irene goodnight (goodnight irene)

Unbelievably, I'd never really heard this before and yesterday my increasingly cool nearly 13-year-old laddy came back from Fopp with a £5 copy on the strength of having liked some of the footage of them in Ramones: End of the Century (cue satisfied sigh and deeply proud 'That's my boy!'). It was always on my mental list of 'must buys', but never quite got bought, and I've never known anyone put it on or anything. Of course I've heard bits of it before, but never the whole thing. Sounds great, as expected, and very 'now', so my son is gonna love it straight off. Kids have their uses...
Less up my street is his Christmas request of Back In Black, but I took a chance on the Dual Disc, and sure enough the CD won't play on my Mac, but the DVD includes a surround sound audio version, which sounds pretty amazing on my 2.1 speaker system, so must be fantastic on 5.1. It does, at least, play in all other CD players in the house.

Well they were American. Actually, though, I have had a surprising lack of good musical influence from others a lot of the time (until I came here, of course - the kindness and good guidance I have never met or only a couple of times or so has been remarkable!). Most of the great music I've got into has been through self-discovery rather than someone saying 'listen to this', and so no-one ever exposed me to that. It's a standing personal joke that I've kept away from it for so long. I bet you have records like that too, things you know you should have heard by now and would confess to not.miss buenos aires wrote:Otis, I am having trouble believing your last post. Never heard Marquee Moon? I'm awfully disappointed in you.
