A Little Miss (Went out to pi…….ck a flower)

A cappella from the documentary Homemade Hillbilly Jam. A film about my favorite local, contrarian-(George brought the Whiskey!), disaffected, all-family, southern Missouri, hillbilly band Big Smith.

Don’t call me trash til you slept in my trailer!

Richard Leo Johnson “Glidepath” - Rodeo Bar in NYC 2006 or 2007?

I first heard about this guy when I was about 14 years old and living he was in Eureka Springs, Arkansas. Being only a couple hours away and having been 10 years an unofficial disciple of Leo Kottke and his music, particularly his early stuff with that muscular attack and those clangy old 12 strings, you can imagine how interested I was. Richard Leo Johnson, was a bit of a revelation. I think I had to write(real mail) him to get his first album. Nevertheless, I forgot about him until today. His newer music appears to be very interesting. There’s theremin on his album, The Poetry of Appliance. Oh, and in his other life he’s an architectural photographer.
