Who's heard Little Richard sing "Shake a Hand"?

A love song full of Music

O Thou to whom the musical white spring
by ee cummings

O Thou to whom the musical white spring
offers her lily inextinguishable,
taught by thy tremulous grace bravely to fling
Implacable death's mysteriously sable rob
from her redolent shoulders,

Thou from whose feet reincarnate song suddenly leaping
flame flung, mounts, inimitably to lose herself
where the wet stars softly are keeping their exquisite dreams -

O Love! upon thy dim shrine of intangible commemoration,
(from whose faint close as some grave languorous hymn
pledge to illimitable dissipation
unhurried clouds of incense fleetly roll)

I spill my bright incalculable soul.-e. e. cummings

And The Boneshakers at their bluesy best:


I trust you are all Boneshakers fans now.

See them if you get the opportunity. I have, and they are a great show.

You know TR sometimes you really make me happy!
All new to me, all wonderful!!":O}
 
I just took a journey. and learned much about lot of things. I met an old friend for the first time.
I met him though a 1932 rag tag piece of film forever proving his authorship of one of my life's musical lights.

I met Salomon Lindy

Netfilx did the honors. The story of Salomon's song is complex and detailed and long.
and takes us to South Africa where Salomon Lived his entire life in township poverty..
He never saw a dime for a his song that garner close to Twenty million US dollars.

He was the lead singer and leader of Men's choir. and won a small town competition with his song.

Thought a complicated course of events Pete Seeger spotted it among a lot of South African Folk music.

But as it was very African the record company that "claimed" rights to Salomon's song hired Mr Weiss a song writer of some repute to add melody and Lyrics. The whole world attests to the job he did.

But Salomon never heard it Salmon was never paid a dime.

The Doc revolves around a South African (White) writer who spent decades trying to get Salomon's Hairs (4 daughters now old and as impoverishes as Salomon had been) The rights and money due to them.

Now I'll post a song you grew up with and no doubt sang along with
Say thank you Salomon for the ultimate one hit wonder.


Thank you Salomon!
 
Because your a stubborn old man who drinks his whisky thought a straw...
WAIT!
I may have been to quick to judge.":O}

I had to stop drinking many years ago. So much time wasted on vodka (yuck) and not enough for whisky. They are all simply ethanol, crikey hangovers can be meaner than most folks have experience with. And good for them!

Dang! Who woulda thunk that I'd ever get old? Not me.
