Billy Brown - "He'll Have To Go" (original recording, 1959) Brown's recording flopped, but a few months later Jim Reeves released "He'll Have To Go" as a B-side with no expectations. The song was a hit on both country and pop charts and has since been covered hundreds of times. Solomon Burke-"He'll Have To Go", 1964 (also a hit) THE LAST SONG EVER RECORDED BY ELVIS PRESLEY! (1976) Finally, Ry Cooder recorded a version with a brilliant Mexican Norteño-style arrangement for his 1976 album Chicken Skin Music. His ensemble included master accordionist "Flaco" Jimenez, "El Rey De Texas"! udderly masterful! high art! here's the studio version for purists: Excerpt from Flaco interview on working with Ry Cooder: Shortly afterwards, he met Ry Cooder, a musician who has spent his career uncovering and reinterpreting "lost" musical cultures. For Cooder, finding Flaco Jimenez was like finding Ali Farka Toure or Ibrahim Ferrer: it was the discovery of an artist with a completely mature vocabulary, grammar and syntax, a great artist unknown outside a small, local audience. Cooder changed Jimenez's understanding of the world. "I think Ry Cooder is a universal music genius," says Jimenez. "How can I explain the guy? He creates so many things. He modifies. He feels and plays any kind of music. He checked out conjunto and found out my history. He tracked me down. I never heard of him but then he opened my eyes. You must remember that when my papa played, there weren't record companies out there willing to expose conjunto music. They considered it low class, cantina music, Mexican hillbilly music." http://frontera.library.ucla.edu/sites/default/files/3 - Ry Cooder presents Flaco Jimenez with an award at the Americana Music Festival ion Nashville%2C 2014.jpeg COWS LOVE RY!

Well, Superdad, I have to agree that the many cow/accordion videos are far more persuasive than any of the zoo videos or cat and dog accordion videos. For example, this one strikes me as mere back scratching: But keep in mind the vast number of cows in this country, not just here in the dairy state, but in New York, California, and Texas (over 10,000,000in Texas alone!). And clearly there is a rich tradition of Americana accordion music: A History of the Accordion in Americana Music Edifying, isn't it? Here's just one fine example: Pee Wee King - "Bull Fiddle Boogie" (1949) Cowboys love accordion and Texas alone is as big as many countries: "Guacamole" - by Chris Rybak, the Accordion Cowboy ( featuring guacamole as sexual innuendo) But it's not just the States. Gauchos love accordion. That's no accident. Geraldo's Gauchos Orchestra (1931) Even more compelling: Amazing gaucho dance with boleadoras (Argentina): Iving and Superdad 1 1 Link to comment

Mu, mu, mu.. BTW this guy has some really cool mu-scles.. hmmmm... how about a little Heart Sutra... on pedal steel guitar!!!! from album liner notes: "The Heart Sutra “Thus have I heard. Once the Blessed One was dwelling in Rajagrija at Vulture Peak Mountain . . .” This opening piece is, for the most part, a monotone recitation of the Heart Sutra, the “Sutra of the Heart of Transcendent Wisdom” [as translated by the Padmakara Translation Group] delivered by the Buddha some 2,500 years ago on Vulture Peak Mountain. His message, in so many words, was that “Form is Emptiness” and “Emptiness also is Form”. All of our human conceptions, feelings, dreams, and every aspect of our physical reality is subsumed and therefore “contained” in emptiness. In this piece, the Buddha’s name is marked by a minor third, and points of emphasis are expressed in octaves. In this musical recitation with single unison notes, I tried to pay attention to the overtones produced and the subtle interplay of notes and vibrations that brought them to life." This is immediately followed by.... And I Await the Resurrection of the Pedal Steel Guitar notes: "I remember very clearly the first time many years ago I heard Olivier Messiaen’s massive “Et Exspecto Ressurectionem Mortuoram”. I was in my car driving down the freeway in Houston, Texas on my way to a country-western gig. To say I was overwhelmed would be an understatement. After two minutes or so I had to pull over to the side of the road until the music ended. It has been with me ever since, from the low octaves at the beginning to the gripping propulsive conclusion. So my song is in part an homage to this monumental work by Messiaen (with which it shares the first three notes), and also expresses my own feelings on the current state of the instrument I play, the pedal steel guitar, and my hopes for its future. In this piece I wanted the whole body of the instrument – the legs, the pedals, the wood, the strings, tuning keys, bridge and nut, and pickup – to tell its story. I know the time will someday come when the steel guitar will again sing its own song – a song with a sense of majesty, ecstasy, and beauty approaching that of Messiaen." 😇 Susan Alcorn - And I Await The Resurrection Of The Pedal Steel Guitar (LP), 2006 Iving 1 Link to comment
christopher3393 Posted September 30, 2021 Author Share Posted September 30, 2021 ...speaking of pedal steel guitar... "Steel Guitar Rag" is the seminal Western swing instrumental credited with popularizing the steel guitar as an integral instrument in a Western band. Written by Leon McAuliffe, it was first recorded by Bob Wills and The Texas Playboys in 1936. Too tame fer ya? Here's Leon goin' up tempo in "59 A little back story on this classic, including its controversial sources! Iving 1 Link to comment
