This is a little ditty I wrote about a quirky little cafe/venue I used to visit almost daily when I lived in Stuttgart, Germany; THE CAFE GALÀO
For those who have been there know that this place is the Jill of all thrills!
A cafe with great coffee, the best toasted Schnitte’s around, a ripper live music venue (my friends and I often played by night) and a swanky club with an exotic DJ for the later part of the evening/early hours of the morning. Seriously cool little place I tell ya. What a vibe!
The Galào is run by the happiest German man in the world; Herr Reiner Bocker.
Reiner often greeted us with these drinks called the ‘Bohemian Cocaine’.
The Bohemian Cocaine (Reiner’s invention) is made up of half a shot of Kahlua, the other half vodka, a slice of lemon dipped in ground coffee and the other side in powdered sugar. Dangerously delicious I tell ya!
On this one particular day my best mates the Hussy Hicks, myself, Genevieve Chadwick and a few other mates had a day off of our tours. Of course we ended up at the Galào drinking Bohemian Cocaines. Hours soon had passed, after a fair few of these under our belts, we were UNSTOPPABLE and in full form. Oops. The ‘Badass Windmill’ hours had commenced..
Although ALOT has changed since then, I thought that these 24 hours definitely deserved a song.
I present to you; BOHEMIAN COCAINE.

LYRICS:
VERSE ONE:
It’s another dusty sunrise,
Looking through geranium eyes,
Feeling like an undercooked egg white,
Bohemian Cocaine you got me last night,
Mrs Jiminy Spliffet, she’s a staple,
She was bringing all the goodness to our table,
No wonder why my head hurts today,
I guess some things never change.
CHORUS:
We were higher than my petrol bill,
Some could say it was overkill,
While you were at home sleeping still,
My people and I were like one badass windmill.
VERSE TWO:
Well It’s five o’clock somewhere,
'Must be time for a hair of the dog,
So I pick up my mates, off the floor and we head on down the block,
To have an ice cold beer, an ice cold beer to keep the shakes at bay,
Well one sip and it's clear, Oops! Well there goes the rest of the day.
CHORUS:
We were higher than my petrol bill,
Some could say it was overkill,
While you were at home sleeping still,
My people and I were like one badass windmill.

Amazing. Would love to see you play a ditty or two with Bonnie Raitt in San Francisco someday.
Ahhhhh I would love nothing more than to meet Bonnie Raitt and jam with her! She is UNREAL and inspires me so much! Thanks for stopping by and listening Rico - I appreciate it mate!
Excellent! Thank you!
Just so cool, the production was good to watch nice touch and always sounding just Minnie M so dam good...
Great stuff as always.
Really a beautiful song and performance here, thank you. I think this is a showcase of a huge creativity, authenticity and originality that is rarely seen nowadays. I love the "vintage guitar" sound, and the amazing slide work. Doing 3 instruments at once so wellcannot be easy - but you make it look easy :)
Keep up the good work (and keep playing slide), you have a very bright future.

Keep up the fabulous work, mate! Loving it heaps! Smooches!
This is awesome! The Farmer drum set is a huge leap from your original cajon setup which already was fantastic! Missing you here in old Stuttgart!

Kukaa ei kysyny sult
@@hasmatiks Älä tuu tänne sekaantumaan! 😄
Merci
Wow ! just Wow !~
Please have this songbon Spotify.. love it
That ES-295 and its player are both treasures.
This is so incredibly good i do not know what to say ... and i do not knwo if i should be inspired or if i should sell my instruments :D
Great! How does she get that hi-hat going? Is it from a drum machine? Or is she that fantastic, a wizard?
Hey Magnus. I'm playing Kick, hats, snare and cymbal with my feet. The Hi-hat is controlled by the left foot on my Farmer Foot Drum! Glad you enjoyed it!
@@MinnieMarksOfficial Totally badass, Minnie and a fantastic sound! Inspirational too!
love ya!! Norm(Harrington)
Badass :)
WOW!!!! Nice!
Your awesome!
keep rocking....from MALAYSIA
Nice sound and riff.
That is such an insane slide riff! Would love to see a break-down of it.
Um, how come we have never heard of this bad ass singer songwriter? Oh wait, we just have.
Remember the name folks.
Really great Minnie!
Love it!!
Having seen her live…Minnie is the closest to a complete performance package. The previous comment about playing with Bonnie Raitt is a delicious idea. Bonnie has already picked Liz Stringer as another favourite Australian performer.
That ES-295 sounds hot with the P90's
I'm loving this.. any way I can get the tab for it..
Excellent!
i feel it
holy cow 🥹
Wonderful!
This is awesome. The guitar refrain reminds me of Jeff Buckley - so nice
What a compliment, thank you kind sir!
Super!
More, more, more!!!
Much more to come my friend!
Why is this not on Apple Music or Spotify?????
