The great grand-pappy was a busy man
Cooked his grub in a fryin' pan
Picked his teeth with a huntin' knife
He wore the same suit all-a his life
Oh-oh, ooo-oh-ooo, ooo-ooo
A-ay-oh

Never made it down to Ponderosa Stomp the year (or years?) she performed

I haven't watched this yet, but I'm sure it's great.

is this the best thing he did after his 50s-60s heyday? I like this one a whole lot all the way through, but some of the other stuff I’ve heard from the 70s didn’t quite match up.

THe turn of the 70s funk stuff is quite good in places. The Raven set of that stuff was pretty solid not 100% sure about all of the individual lps.

that weird guitar break in "hey jerome" is one of the funkiest things ever

Heez, Monday, 23 May 2022 17:15 (two years ago) link

yeah I love that sort of metallic percussive thing he’s doing throughout.
