My wife and I are going to Keene, NH today, and may very well be without meaningful internet access tonight. At this stage in my life, that’s a little like saying that an alcoholic will be without his bottle, but I think I’ll make it.
We’re going to a Little Feat concert. In truth and in fact, the concert is just an excuse to get together with friends from the area. I had heard of Little Feat when we agreed on this date, but even John Yoo couldn’t have tortured the name of one of their songs out of me.
So, I figured, since I’m inflicting this music on myself, I might as well inflict it on others, be it good or bad. Well, it’s not that bad. Just based on the searches that came up on youtube, I’m guessing that Dixie Chicken is one of their standards, and this version, from way back in 1977, features Bonnie Raitt, Emmylou Harris & Jesse Winchester, singing along with the band, though truth to tell I couldn’t make out either Bonnie or Emmylou’s voice, though they’re clearly there based on the visual evidence. As to Winchester, who cares?
