FOR REPRODUCTION, PLEASE CONTACT ALAN LLOYD VIA TFTW.ORG.UK © Paul Harris Jeff Tuck finally gets some prominence (usually hidden behind guitars and vocalists) From the Last Hurrah for Skiffle on January 28th, courtesy of Paul Harris Neil reads some books Keith and what he did with Willie Mr Angry chats with Freddy Cannon We “borrow” more stuff from Nick Cobban Jazz Junction, Soul Kitchen, Blues Rambling And more.... 1 Greetings From Snobbo Manor I have not contributed to this publication for some years, but last night Henry and I went to see some Grand Opera, or so we thought. It turned out to be some dreadful American music apparently performed at something called the 'Grand Ole Opry' in Nashville, Tennessee. This woman sang a totally inappropriate song entitled 'Blanket On The Ground', one line of which went: 'Just because we are married doesn't mean we can't sleep around'! I ask you, this may be normal behaviour for hillbillies who marry their 13-year old cousins, but it is totally unacceptable here. A gentleman in the next row leaned over and tried to make out the words 'slip around', but of course that is absolute nonsense. Unless they were laying the blanket on icy ground why should they be slipping around? Then some awful man in a cowboy hat sang about his girlfriend coming out of a honkytonk. Why on Earth a woman would climb into an old upright pianoforte I have no idea; presumably this is where poor hillbillies live when their ramshackle huts fall down.
