      Must be painful to be a talented songwriter in SA. Anton Goosen is the liedjieboer and I like him, but David has by far the best lyrical content and music in my opinion.
      It always amazes me that a soutie has the ability to write better lyrics in Afrikaans than most Afrikaans speaking songwriters.

      We had the double vinyl album since those shows in the Baxter theatre in the early 80's.My mother threw it away about 10 years ago arguing;" Man, jy kry nêrens meer naalde vir platespelers ni" Ek was lekker befok oor dit. Went to one of those shows with my dad at age 4 and have no memory of it 😑
      It's an absolute gem of a live album. Still my favorite live album. David was in the form of his life and that band was amazing.

    One of your best songs in my opinion is "O moeder" . On the record it's recorded in G. Now, for someone who loves his minor chords, I've always played this in a straight Major chord progression and it never sounded wrong.
    Just listened to this song for the first time in two decades and realized that the second chord after G is actually Bm and not C. Is this correct, David?

    • @DavidKramerSA
      @DavidKramerSA  2 года назад +2

      Hi Werner, From your description it sounds like you've been missing the D before the C.
      Here are the chords as I play it. You can of course substitute Bm for the D in the 1st and 3rd line and that would sound slightly different but fine.
      The time signature is a waltz and if you're a finger picker it works well to pluck the bass note on the first beat of every bar. eg: G strum strum/D strum strum/ C strum strum /G strum strum and so on.
      O /Moeder my /mond is ‘n /gat vol /wind /G /D /C /G
      ‘n /Donker /kol teen die /maan / /C /C/ /G /G
      My /bloed sypel /weg, ‘n /rooi tak in die /sand /G /D /C /G
      As die /staalblou /son onder/gaan / /C /C/ /G /G
      /Totsiens Tannie /Es, Tant /Kitty en ou /Bill /D /D /D /D
      Gee my /kerkpak aan /Boetie of /Pierre / /C /C /G /G
      Want ek /lê hier al/leen /G /D

      En /huistoe /kom ek nie /weer / /C /C /G /G
      Mammie wat van Sussie wat sal jy haar vertel
      Van die lewe en die dood die hemel en die hel
      Mammie moet haar een aand daar buite gaan wys
      Die skadus teen die maan die blink suiderkruis
      En sê vir haar Ouboet is ‘n sterretjie vanaand
      Wat skyn in die hemel daarbo
      Vergeet maar gerus van die vlag oor my kis
      Die leuens wat ons almal wil glo

      That been said, I have been playing the verses with only G and C like in forever; singing the"my mond is ñ" part while remaining in G for some reason.

    • @DavidKramerSA
      @DavidKramerSA  2 года назад +1

      @@wernercolyn892 Seeing as you like the minor chords, something I often do is substitute the relative minor for the root chord at the end. So you could try substituting Em for G at the end of the verse. This gives it a sadder quality. Another tip would be to hold a D note on the 2nd string on all the chords in the verse. Which makes the high D ring through every chord of the verse. Hope you get what I mean.

      Thank you for responding, David.
      Just one last question: Whenever I listen to Dylan's "Changing of the guards", I can't help thinking that you were heavily influenced by that sound and album. I'm I a fool for thinking this? To my ears it's almost like you wrote that song for Dylan 😁
