Saturday Matinee – The Mighty Teardrops, Eric Bibb & Robbie Robertson

The Mighty Teardrops of Vancouver cover the 19th century traditional Midnight On The Stormy Deep, first recorded by Lester McFarland & Robert A. Gardner (1926). It’s a song about cheatin’.

Born in New York, blues singer / songwriter Eric Bibb moved to Europe in 1970 and currently resides in Helsinki, Finland, with his Finnish wife Ulrika.

In 2019, Playing For Change featured Ringo Starr and The Band’s original member Robbie Robertson, along with musicians across 5 continents.

Outta time, outta gas, gotta go. See you tomorrow.

Saturday Matinee – Tommy Burst, Stefan Ilic, Steyr 80A Sincrobulli & Robbie Robertson

I had something similar that shot plastic pellets. Since there were no refills, you had to chase them down after spraying the playground. (Not sure, but I think the bad guy is Otis from The Andy Griffith Show.)

More tractor? Don’t know anything about this one except it’s an Austrian Steyr 80A Sincrobulli.

Robbie Robertson remakes The Band‘s classic The Weight, with performers from around the world. That song is one of my all-time favorites.

We have some tough times ahead, and the best thing to do is to ignore the newsmedia fear-mongers. The biggest threat is not the Wuhan v-word, but the overwrought government reactions to it, so work with what you got until the storm passes… and it will.

See you back here tomorrow.

Saturday Matinee – The Sounds Of Water & Beer, Chick Music, Ten Years After & Robbie Robertson

Just in time for Oktoberfest. [h/t Nancy H.]

I’m speechless. I hope Archie McPhee got some royalty bucks from this one [via].

Ten Years After was one of my favorite blues-rock bands before I even knew what blues-rock was. Alvin Lee was killer.

Yeah. This. I never quite knew what the song meant, but I still like it [found here.].

Have a great weekend, folks, beware of liars, & we’ll see you back here tomorrow for stuff.
