    The talent-per-artist ratio in this band is off the charts.

      That’s because Pokey is embracing and building upon the cultural monuments of our past rather than tearing them down.

    • @carollizc
      @carollizc 3 года назад

      Jimmie Rodgers, aka "The Singing Brakeman" was heavily influenced by this type of music, as he was influenced also by black blues players. Clarinets, corners, etc can be heard in his final recordings. Also, bluegrass is an ensemble musical form, allowinG for expression by all the musicians in the group. That's probably why it reminds you so much of the music you heard as a child.

    Some days up, some days down
    Think I'll jump into the river and drown
    With no means for healing, no cure can be found
    If I end up drinking everything in the room
    I'm just, actin' a fool, forgetting you
    Actin' a fool, forgetting you
    Look over the horizon, what do you see?
    Another sun is setting on me
    Last rays of sunlight, taking my sanity
    If you see me howling, howling at the moon
    I'm just, actin' a fool, forgetting you
    Actin' a fool, forgetting you
    Everyone has a story, every song has an end
    Now I am finished and I won't sing again
    I'll drink myself green, don't mind that money I spend
    You were the last thing I had left to lose
    I'll be, actin' a fool, forgetting you
    Actin' a fool, forgetting you
    Some days up, some days down
    Think I'll jump into the river and drown
    With no means for healing, no cure can be found
    If I end up drinking everything in the room
    I'm just, actin' a fool, forgetting you
    Actin' a fool, forgetting you
    Actin' a fool, forgetting you
    I'm just actin' a fool, forgetting you

    Ive got to add a comment about this group.
    I'm an old boffo (and I do mean old ) and as a general rule this kind of music is not 'my cup of tea' but I think Pokey and his group are superb.
    Medium and up tempos are 'spot on' and PK's voice is perfect his style.
    All the musicians are great.
    Is that the trumpet player on banjo ? I wonder why he left the group He could really swing.
    I found PK by accident and have had a lot of pleasure listening to him !
