Notes
Uncle Larry gives ya whatever is left in the tank after another long day of sessioneering friends...

So…if you happen to enjoy people that can write fucking amazing songs and amazing lyrics, you should check out the REAL version of that old song i butchered at the beginning of this video….with these poor beat up old node-soaked vocal cords of mine....

• Poison

Chuck is a very dear old friend of mine (and Guthrie’s) and will be singing a couple songs with me at my little bday show Dec 20 at 3rd and Lindsley...a truly beautiful human...supremely talented and very gifted when it comes to " putting the pen to paper" as we say

Incidentally, this particular record you are hearing here was recorded when your uncle Larry was a much much younger man

Pre-kids…

Crazy to think about

Peter Gabriel “Mother Of Violence”

“Walking the street with her naked feet So full of rhythm but I can't find the beat Snapping her heels clicking her toes Everybody knows just where she goes Ah fear, fear, she's the mother of violence Making me tense to watch the way she breed Fear, she's the mother of violence You know self-defense is all you need It's getting hard to breathe It's getting so hard to believe To believe in anything at all Mouth all dry eyes, blood shot Data stored in microdot Kicking the cloud with my moccasin shoes T.v. Dinner, T.V. News Ah 'cause fear Fear, she's the mother of violence Don't make any sense to watch the way she breed Fear, she's the mother of violence Making me tense to watch the way she feed The only way you know she's there Is the subtle flavor in the air Getting hard to breathe Hard to believe in anything at all But fear”
