Greg + Bo = 2 Pomme d'Eve sold out!

Ca a mis un peu de temps, mais ça a fini par se remplir les deux soirs, soit 110 personnes à chaque fois. C'est peut-être un détail pour vous mais pour moi ça veut dire beaucoup, surtout par rapport à des soirées à 20 billets vendus...

Anyway, Greg Brown et Bo Ramsey, c'est deux concerts inoubliables pour clore l'aventure Acoustic in Paris, Part 1 (on ne sait jamais, des fois que Dave Alvin passe par ici...), différents l'un de l'autre, tantôt blues, tantôt folk, avec des moments de grâce, "The Poet Game" ou "Late Night Radio", "Billy from the Hills" ou "Folsom Prison Blues" pour terminer la deuxième soirée.

Le compte rendu de Paco sur Docteur Blues et les photos de Jérôme, toujours chez Docteur Blues. Ces deux-là font la paire!

A écouter :

Greg Brown, Late Night Radio (Bath Tub Blues)

All across Kansas, all across Kansas in the night-
We'll reach Missouri in the dawn's early light.
My sister and I in the back seat don't care how far we got to go.
We want to keep rolling, listening to that late night radio.

Mama took the suitcases and blankets made us a little nest.
Every time we peek up she says "You kids try to get a little rest."
We can hear her and daddy singing, warm as the dashlight glow,
In the back seat, rain for the drumbeat, listening to that late night radio.
We're almost sleeping, tucking in our legs and arms.
We're almost dreaming, looking through the rain at the little lights of the farms.
If we get stuck in the mud, my daddy he will carry us I know.
The music's coming all the way from Texas on the late night radio.

Now my own children are back in that nest where I used to be.
Every time they peek up, I say "You kids now try to get a little sleep,"
And the older girl says, "Daddy I wish we could drive all night, Just go and go-
Oh I love it when it's raining can we listen to the radio?
Listen to that late night radio.

Can we drive all night and Daddy listen to can we drive all night now
Daddy and listen to that late night radio?
In the back seat, rain for the drum beat, listen to that late night radio?
In the back seat, rain for the drum beat, listen to that late night radio.
Coming all the way from Texas, Oh that late night radio.
In the back seat, rain for the drum beat, listen to that late night radio.
Oh I love it, I love it , I love it, Love it when it's raining
Can we go and go and go and go and go and go and go and ....
Listen to that late night radio.
Can we go and go and go and go and go and?"
