My father was born in 1922 and passed in 2023 at over 100 years old.. He road the rails looking for work in the 30's and fought in the pacific theatre in WW II.
I had the pleasure of seeing Charlie perform on Saltspring Island BC a few years ago and I'll never forget it. He's absolutely captivating when he performs. What a great artist.
@@FlareDoobers he came to my hometown in North Carolina a while back and I got to see him live and talk to him afterwards. Super humble guy and a fantastic musician!
This is the music we need hobo music cold and raspy yet clear as day. 1922 is happening again this time us poor folk aren't going to take any more shit. So beautiful this wandering singer is all of us and more.
Heard this song and others back in probably 05 on "The Turnpike" a local music TV show in Lawrence, KS. Hearing this version years later gave me chills. So cool to hear a recent version of the story as Charlie keeps on playing... thank you for the music!
Oh my. You’re not looking hard enough, Charlie is great, but there are SOOOO many good folk artist that speak to an every day man…. Benjamin Todd, Tyler Childers, Matt Heckler, Zach Bryan. All great modern Americana/ folk singers.
@@benweber5186 Matt Heckler's pretty good. Im not a fan Benjamin Todd personally - no offence intended, Childers and Bryan are more Country than Folk imo. But then again, these are just like my opinions. Im talking about Woody Guthrie type 1st wave folk style artists.
@@NegativeBodhiImage fair enough! To each his own! I just started enjoying Charlie, my younger self thought it was a bit slow, my older self finally understands the music
Hey! Talk about being inspired! I’m a paramedic from Quebec. And on my shift this morning heard this on RUclips music. I’ve listen to this all day. I have to tell you that I bring my Jim Dandy with me at work. I’m usually in open D. But not today! I’m in G and rocked this tune in the back of my amb. My partner is going nuts. 😂 Beautiful song and so fun to play.
If I recall I think Rev Robert Jones has a video on RUclips about something called the biscuit roll which is a guitar playing technique similar to this. But a little slower and easier to process. Hope this helps!

A real man’s man bubba. A true American legend. The kind of man , outlaw country singers aspire to become.
Amazing..... I rode across America on a box car as well..... 1980
Been listening to this guy for literally 13 or so years, he’s a Minnesota treasure!
I am from the other side of the world and only know that Minnesota exists because of Charlie Parr haha

Drags along so sweetly
A Poetic song and
Old Charlie's never far
Behind
He s a picker
And an old friend
Of mine
So many fun nights in Eau Claire and Menomonie with this fella.

Charlie!
reminds me of dylan's earlier stuff. very good 👌
Reminds me a bit of Todd Albright playing the 12 string and reviving ragtime blues.
I dig your style pops
Damn he is good.
This song was featured on KXCI 91.3 in Tucson
Representing the North Shore
Duluth, represent!
Damn haven't heard Parr in years this was a flashback

👍😎🌻
❤💫
Wow ,,:))
whats this style of guitar playing called, any videos out there on how to learn it?
Think it’s called finger picking.
This type of stuff is kind of like blue grass.
If I recall I think Rev Robert Jones has a video on RUclips about something called the biscuit roll which is a guitar playing technique similar to this. But a little slower and easier to process. Hope this helps!
ruclips.net/video/H4SvjjuITIE/видео.html
Also if this helps, this song is played in open g tuning. Also sometimes called Spanish tuning.
its a dobro or resonator guitar, this should get u started ruclips.net/video/1AsC-Qaym0I/видео.html
Nice music, but I think we need to talk about that can of CREAMED POSSUM!!!
Love this guy, fuckin gem
