Dogs in a Pile w/ Molly Tuttle - New Speedway Boogie @ Mountain Jam 6-22-25

Eddie Floyd, 'I've Never Found a Girl Like You', written by Booker T Jones on STAX from Memphis.  THIS sort of thing is deep, deep in my bones.

And I'm not the only big fan of the tune:

It has come to my attention that today is National Parrothead Day, so:

On a long car ride the other day, playing this game of "remember the first time I heard so-and-so" and "remember when they were playing with this-band-or-that".

Watching Rod Stewart's set at Glastonbury on BBC1. He's currently singing Love Train.
Quality band behind him.

The exquisite Ms. Morgan James, on a slight tangent from what I'm used to from her:

Not heard of her before. This track has a vintage Motown (Tears of a clown) vibe to it.

I was thinking more a Muscle Shoals soul vibe.
But here's where I first came across her (she is, of course, the blonde):

I know I've posted at least a few of her other things, but "Search" is calling me a liar; search her on YouTube if you want more.

I've been tasked with figuring out how best to accompany a vocalist who is singing this in a competitive folk song category next month. Key is A flat, but subject to change. Instrumentation is up to me, guitar is probably easiest, makes most sense. I may opt for a mandolin if given the choice and it isn't some wackadoodle sharp or flat.

Perhaps from the "Laws & Sausages" category, P.E.R.R.O. session topes:

This most recent bout of 'mandolin poisoning' has resulted in a welcome side-effect... I've rediscovered a few CD's long-buried in a stack that came home from the former workplace. Among them, mandolin master (and generally great guy) Adam Steffey. These are from a solo project a few years ago. I'd run into him at Galax, and got this one. Adam's wife Tina is on frailed banjo here-



And one of his former employers sang this sad song that reminds me of someone else-

And leave it on!
