Radio Ennui: Jackson

Workin' in Jackson this week...hate it. Quirks of the industry make it a drag. Too many pigs at the trough.



I do get to sleep at home...where the big man's been coughing. He's sick and inbetween burst of energy that are expended by pounding on me...he's pitiful, gets surely and hogs his Momma's attention.



I lost a filling...a jagged tooth dines on tongue.



I'm goin to Louisiana.

Radio Grown Folks - Home at Last.

Kind of a drag today.

I made the rounds by myself. Down time, that would normally be passed gossiping or talking enormous mounds of trash, was spent scalding my tongue at one Mackdonald's after another. By the time I got to Tato-Nuts they were sold out and the roosters were nowhere to be seen or heard at Lulu's...too flippin' cold.

I did have the FM though...and these ladies to keep me company.




Plain spoken existentialism for hard livin people...country music at it's finest.



I love this song and there's a live clip out there with an old fella burning a hole in a steel guitar but this video just kills me...



I didn't actually hear Every Things Gonna Work Out Fine but, we don't need to hear Proud Mary again. Besides, there's no way I'm passing up any excuse to play this clip.

Pick yer mouth up off the floor.

So, I reckon it coulda been worse...but I was happy enough to see the house.

Radio Grown Folks - Monday in the Office

I'll be in the office all day today.

I've got a lot paperwork to do, orders to place, I have to pack for the week...booooooooring.

That means y'all can't do what you normally do. Ignore this blog on Mondays.

Tuesday through Thursday we do a boomin' business around here but, Mondays and Fridays are dead. We can't have that today...y'all gotta entertain me. Log on say something stupid. Tell your friends.

To help you get started here are last weeks gems from the radio...



That's some Urban Blues I can get down with.



I don't really have to say anything about this do I?



A staple on the local radio...can't beat it.

Alright y'all.

Radio Grown Folks - "Get Up Daddy...

I wanna hear some Bo Diddley."

He'd hauled himself up on to the bed rail by grabbing my arm. Then he pulled the pillow off my face, I turned toward him and with his nose almost touching mine he says..."COME ON."

That's how my day started. That is my son.

The morning's play list....for your joy and enlightenment.










As always...you're welcome but, thank The Boy.

Radio Grown Folks...Another Smokin' Installment

Junior Kimbrough...Tramp


Jessie Mae Hemphill...Go Back to Your Used to Be



Asie Payton...I Love You



Y'all are welcome.
