I was listening to the
Music Show with Andrew Ford the other Saturday morning and heard an interview with
Tim O'Brien. I liked his music and I liked what he had to say. It was an archived interview from the Blue Mountains Folk Festival. Not having bought a new CD for a while, I had no hesitation in checking out Amazons..had a bit of listen to the samples..read a few reviews and clicked on 'pay now'. It arrived on Friday and has been delighting me ever since. Pretty well a 'love it' from the start and that is always a good sign.
Just had to share the blurb on the CD:
" I called some friends together and we played this stuff without a lot of thinking. It felt good doing it - whatever else happens is gravy.
My dad's gone but I see him smiling"
And another little quote:
"Dedicated to the memory of Frank A O'Briend Jr who often said "I have never had bad ham. I've had some that's better than others, but I've never had bad ham"
Bit like life, actually.
