Theme:
Bob Dylan, Bob Dylan,
where have you been
and where are you going…..?
Leader:
Allen Singer Let's
reconstruct Bob through his songs. No matter the time, he bobbed and waived and
came out with something new. Bob's been there all the time pushing and pulling
everyone who's listened to him, reacted to him and tried to make him over in their
image. He's
still out there and we'll sing his songs, so join us for some Dylanesque fun on
Sunday, February 10, 2007 at Old Time Music. ~ Allen ======================================================= Allen
started the circle by dedicating the Dylan song, "He
Was a Friend of Mine",
to the memory of Les Preston. This
view of the 'Song Circle' shows the warmth of the space with the
wall of mandolins
and the wall of guitars behind the participants.
John
led on "Long Black Veil". Judy
(left), drew one from 'the book,
p228', "Tomorrow
Is a Long Time".
She indicated that Judy Collins often did this song.
Anita,
on penny whistle, took the group through "St. Anne's Reel" Laura
sang "Diamonds and Rust", with help from Jim.
Another
view of the song circle with more warm walls of instruments.
It's really a
pickers candy store, a little piece of heaven. Bob
Dylan was a good friend to Johnny Cash.
Larry leads a Cash song, "I Walk
the Line".
Tanya
asked to be allowed to sing without accompaniment so as to do justice to
a
Hazel Dickens song, "A
Few Old Memories". She
nailed it!
Herb
did "Froggy Went a Courtin"
Greg
led the group in "It Never Rains in Southern California".
See
ya Soon! |
