Goodnight Irene

I love this song. Tonight we decided to serenade the folks as they were putting everything away. It was a great night. The audience was terrific. So a good way to end the evening is:

Silent Night – Merry Christmas

This Land is Your Land – Woody Guthrie, For Arlo, By Bob Johnson

This is my favorite song and I had a good time singing and recording it and putting this video together the year the Philly’s won the Series. My kids live one at the Atlantic and one at the Pacific, and I’m thinking about hopping a freight.

And if you want great coffee. Come with me to the promised land.

You gotta love it. Go Maggie

Enjoy. Watch Maggie after she winds it up. And see how it flows when she starts enjoying what she is doing and dancing to her music.

Oh if I could copy her stage presence.

Go Girl.

Grandpa.

Charlotte, please pass this along. It is from a show I was a part of in Wachula, Florida in 2008.

Two great songs: Sing Me Back Home; Too Old To Die Young. I hope you enjoy them.

Floyd Country Store, Floyd, Virginia – Best Jamming Ever

Bob Johnson — Tue, 27 Jul 2010 17:55:27 +0000

Is this not great music. Leo, should we invite them to your Monday Night Jams?

I had the great pleasure of spending a few days with my good and generous friend Ivan Sexton (hear Ivan sing Peace in the Valley). Ivan moved to Catawba, Va. recently and now visits and plays at the Floyd Country Store frequently. I joined him on July 23, 2010 and we played in the street for four or five hours. Nothing better.

For those of you who have not seen Ivan recently, here is a picture of him with his beloved dog “Kentucky”. This is the friendliest dog you would want to see. And man can she run and jump.

Ivan and Kentucky in Catawba, Va.

And while we played at Floyd a fellow sat across from us and he too had a Martin HD 28 LSV, a Clarence White version. It’s the first time I’ve seen one just like mine. Turns out he bought it in 2001, as I did. He told me Martin is now only making the Signature version, so ours will no longer be made. Maybe they will be worth something someday, but for now, they sure do sound great, and the large sound hole produces sweet music. Gotta keep the volume down though, as the guy sitting next to you may appreciate some hearing room.
