Thanks, Derek.  I think it is too.  I need to quit feeling bad because I can not play like Charley Patton or the other greats and just have fun doin' em, how I can do em'.

Fine version Unc.

Thank you, Dave.  Just got back from playing that big black box at a nursing home.  It serves me well.  

Thanks, Clock.   Is your Spanish that good?!!   I think you are saying, 'Baby saddle my pony, saddle my black mare.'

Very nice Uncle. Good balance with your big box and vocal. Good strait harp. I loved it.

More of a go-fer, Wes.    Linda is making home made salsa with our garden produce.  She just had me go-fer chips from the Hy Vee grocery.

Ahh,   A typo, Wes.  I thought maybe you thought I looked like Bogie.  Or I was an old fogie.  

Comment by Uncle John on August 13, 2017 at 2:54am

Bogie?   Thanks, Wes.  My dad was more likely to say quit horsing around.

Thanks, E.  Old Charley did have a booming voice that is a pleasure to listen to.  But I can not understand what he's saying!

Yup, a nearly perfect Iowa summer day, Richard.   Thanks!  Pretty good last line too.

Don't want to marry, just want to have this dance. Never know when a wooden leg might come in handy. Like that big Box, and the guitar too! Ha! Great little song played superbly, took all my pain and worries away Uncle. Like the straw hat, summer in Iowa!
