Song Review: Tony Trischka’s Earl Jam - “Kentucky Bullfight”

Sound Bites couldn’t tell ya what a Kentucky bullfight might look like - he’s from backward Oiho after all - but in Tony Trischka's capable hands, “Kentucky Bullfight” sounds right fine.

Taking the rotating-guests concept of his recent Earl Jam LP to the stage, the banjoist was captured on video performing the “Bullfight” with assistance from fiddler Brittany Haas, guitarist Micheal Daves and bassist Jared Engel.

The music crests and breaks like waves as first Hass, then Daves and, finally, Trischka step toward the mic to solo on their unplugged instruments. They’re not a regular band, but, if “Kentucky Bullfight” is any indication, they’re as tight as just about any working band out there at the moment.

The last time I have been to Fosters Cafe in Holland Village was at end of 2019 just before the onslaught of COVID-19. They have since closed that business but reopened as a stall located within KAAAKIS, a food court in Yew Tee Point, which is a two-minute walk from Yew Tee MRT Station.

Since it was lunch time, I ordered the Chicken Chop Pasta (S$9) in addition to the scones set. A large piece of pan-fried boneless chicken drenched in brown sauce occupied one half of the plastic plate. Salad and spaghetti took up the two corners on the other end. I really love that savoury wholesome sauce, using the chicken to mop the gravy up while rolling the noodles around the fork and alternate putting them in my mouth. The vegetables are crisp and fresh with the salad dressing imparting the flavours.

Seem like the other food blogs on the internet neglected to confirm that the Devonshire Cream Tea Set is no more. In its place is the Two Scones with Tea Set (S$12) with clotted cream and jam. And worst, the set now consisted of only two scones and tea minus the butter, cake and sandwich. I was frankly disappointed when it came served in disposable plastic plate and cutlery. Not only did they serve less food, but the price is even higher than the plate of spaghetti. High tea is just not the same without the proper china, stainless steel cutlery and that pot of tea. :( Fortunately, the (now smaller) scones saved the day with their buttery and crumbly texture plus the top is so crunchy. Spread some clotted cream and fruit jam on a piece and send it into the mouth. Heavenly, as I sipped on the paper cup of earl grey tea.

While they were once touted as the cheapest place for afternoon tea in Singapore. The place had lost it charm, offering less value set at higher price point. Tai tai (Chinese colloquial term for a lady of privileged means, with lots of leisure time and money to spend) won’t be caught dead sipping tea from paper cup or eating from disposable plastic plate and cutlery in a food court environment. Guess I will have to start making my own scones.

Album Review: Tony Trischka - Earl Jam

Tony Trischka had no problem recruiting veterans and newcomers, traditionalists and modernists, to help bring his Earl Jam to life.

And that’s not surprising, considering Trischka built the arrangements around transcriptions of Earl Scruggs solos recorded during private jam sessions with John Hartford in the 1980s and ’90s that Trischka received during COVID-19 quarantine.

Billy Strings’ status as bluegrass’ future is confirmed as he leads a band including banjoists Trischka and Béla Fleck, mandolinist Sam Bush, fiddler Michael Cleveland and others on the LP-opening “Brown’s Ferry Blues.”

Later on, Bush supports another youngster, sharing vocal and instrumental duties with Molly Tuttle on “Dooley.” Yet another young voice in the old-time genre, Sierra Ferrell, is super-present with her voice from another time, fronting three of Earl Jam’s 15 cuts including “San Antonio Rose” and a stunning rendition of “Amazing Grace” with the McCrary Sisters adding support and whose reprise closes the album.

Veterans get involved, too, as Del McCoury and (most of) his eponymous Band take charge on “Roll on Buddy” and former Pure Prairie Leaguer and current Eagle Vince Gill sings the mournful “Bury Me Beneath the Willow.”

Vocalist Lindsay Lou; fiddlers Darol Anger, Brownyn Keith-Hynes, Brittany Haas and Stuart Duncan; mandolinist Dominick Leslie and Jacob Jolliff; guitarist Bryan Sutton; and others make cameos. Trischka, meanwhile, recreates Scruggs’ solos exactly as they unfolded on that lost-and-found recording to create a hybridized LP where sum and parts are equally impactful.
