Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Day Two, Golden Gate Park, San Francisco, Calif., Oct. 5, 2024

It was strictly bluegrass to kick off Day Two of Hardly Strictly Bluegrass as the Dry Branch Fire Squad offered stories about HSB founder Warren Hellman and songs of the Civil War and death and Jesus alongside instrumentals on the Banjo stage. There were no amps during the day-opening set that found the quartet playing and singing into shared mics and telling slow-to-develop tales with good humor.

Later in the day, Moonalice would grace the Towers of Gold audience with the second “White Rabbit” of the festival - following Molly Tuttle’s Oct. 4 version - and Tuttle would return with Golden Highway to back Steve Earle for a set that included a surprise appearance from Emmylou Harris on “Goodbye” and a rare festival encore of “This Land is Your Land” to end Oct. 5 in San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park.

As a warm morning turned to a sweltering afternoon that found festivalgoers gathering in shady areas and leaving sun-drenched stretches of grass empty, Jobi Riccio and her rhythm section created a stripped-back, Hejira-era Joni Mitchell/Harris hybrid for the Rooster-farians, as the emcee called those gathered at Rooster stage. Playing during Buddy Miller’s daylong Cavalcade of Stars, Riccio surely earned some new fans.

Showcasing their new How to Make Mistakes LP, Fruition entertained the Swan stage shade-seekers as the quintet with multiple lead singers and multi-instrumentalist members took a a Bandian approach to 21st-century Americana with faux-blood harmonies buttressing ballads like “Still on My Mind.”

Following immediately on the adjacent Towers of Gold, Moonalice - with drummer John Molo, guitarist Barry Sless, singer Lester Chambers, bassist Pete Sears and others - turned in a hugely entertaining and soulful set that included the front-line trio of female vocalists leading the large band through such covers as Marvin Gaye’s “You’re all I Need to Get By” the Grateful Dead’s “Bird Song,” “(Turn on Your) Lovelight” and the aforementioned Airplane number.

Back on the Rooster for the ongoing Cavalcade, former Carolina Chocolate Drop Dom Flemons played bones, harmonica, guitar and quills on traditional songs to demonstrate what being an American Songster is all about. As he performed Elizabeth Cotten’s “Freight Train,” on guitar and “Brown Skinned Girl” on harmonica, Flemons proved himself the rare solo-acoustic performer who could hold a field full of festivalgoers in rapt (near) silence.

But he also had assistance from the Red Dirt Boys - who’d previously played a rich-gumbo show of their own - on original country and western songs from Traveling Wildfire and an old-timey rendition of “Going Down the Road Feeling Bad,” as he danced with rubbery legs of joy. A couple of false starts added to the spontaneous nature of this surprise mini-set.

Carlene Carter provided midafternoon lunchtime country music as the Sound Biteses prepared for Mavis Staples on the Banjo. And she did not disappoint, cooling down the afternoon with such hopeful numbers as “I’m Just Another Soldier,” “Handwriting on the Wall” “Respect Yourself” and “Freedom Highway” as she declared the healing power of music and her gruff, joyful laugh.

“We come to bring you some joy, some happiness, some inspiration - we want you to feel good,” Staples said.

And she made people feel just that though it was disheartening to see the 85-year-old American treasure needing to sit during a portion of her show, which she did not do in Ohio several months ago.

Earle, Tuttle & Golden Highway ended the day with 75 minutes - HSB’s longest performance - and opened with “Warren Hellman’s Banjo.” The show was a little under-rehearsed but a prime example of live music without a net with songs from the Del McCoury-Earle joint the Mountain, a cover of Little Feat’s “Willin’” and perhaps the most-emphatic version of “Copperhead Road” to date.

“This turned out exactly the way I wanted it to,” an exuberant Earle said with a comment that summed up Mr. and Mrs. Sound Bites’ day perfectly.

Lyrics:

I hear songs on the radio

They might be fast or they might be slow

But every song they play's got me thinkin' 'bout you

I see a fella walkin' down the street

He looks at me and he smiles real sweet

But he don't matter to me

'Cause I'm thinkin' 'bout you

Every little dream I dream about you

Every little thought I think about you

Drives me crazy when you go away

I oughta keep you locked up at home

And like a wild horse I want to break you

I love you so much I hate you

Every little thing reminds me of you

Honey when you leave me here all alone

My tongue gets tied when I try to talk

My knees get weak when I start to walk

So I might as well stay home and keep thinkin' 'bout you

"the young and the restless" on my tv set

That's just like us when we first met

And when they start to kissin'

Got me thinking bout you

Every little dream I dream about you

Every little thought I think about you

Drives me crazy when you go away

I oughta keep you locked up at home

And like a wild horse I want to break you

I love you so much I hate you

Every little thing reminds me of you

Honey when you leave me here all alone

Songwriter:

Every little dream I dream about you

Every little thought I think about you

Drives me crazy when you go away

I oughta keep you locked up at home

And like a wild horse I want to break you

I love you so much I hate you

Every little thing reminds me of you

Honey when you leave me here all alone

Recordamos que abuelito Dion tiene nuevo disco que se llama “Girl Friends” (8 de marzo, Keeping The Blues Alive Records) en el que ha colaborado con un montón de chicas. El tercer single que ha sacado, el R&B franco, sencillote y good time "I Aim To Please" junto a Danielle Nicole es el que más me ha gustado. Dion junto a Freddy Cannon, es de lo poco que queda vivo del r&r original. ¡Salve y larga vida!

Hay cosas que no cambian, que permanecen inmutables. Simplemente sigo adorando a Rockpile, creo que es el rocanrol- poprock más vital, contagioso y feliz que se hizo en UK desde los primeros Beatles. Aquí hay vídeos de "Wrong Way" (canción de Squeeze que ya era un tiro, ojo); "Crawling From The Wreckage" de Graham Parker - tres cuartos de lo mismo-; uno country estupendo de Dave Edmunds con Carlene Carter, "Baby Ride Easy"; y "Born Fighter" con solo de armónica de Huey Lewis en 9' 22". Por eso estaban en el estudio estos barandas, Lewis tocó y compuso "Bad Is Bad" de "Repeat When Neccesary" LP de Edmunds en 1979, que también contenía "Wreckage". Phil Lynott no tocó en ninguno de estos discos, pero hizo con Thin Lizzy una sabrosa versión de "Trouble Boys" que sólo apareció en un single que hay que tener.
