Music And Musings

So I wrapped these three songs together to try out at a gig about twenty five years ago. It went over so well that I used it consistently at all live shows since. I apologize for the sound quality. This was recorded long before I had any recording equipment worth mentioning.

Does any else still suffer from Thirsty Thursdays?

See you next St. Paddy's Day!!!

Apparently, this note showed up on a foreman's desk one morning.

Another great tune written by Andy M. Stewart. This was a regular in my lineup as well. I remember playing this multiple times on St. Paddy's Day. Ohh, the green beer would be flowing oh so freely.

A fresh new week ahead of us. Please follow me at BrianPottie60@Rumble.com

In Stan Rogers' career that was cut far too short, he gave us a collection of music that will be rivalled by no-one. A proud Canadian who understood the plight of fishermen, farmers, and blue collar workers across the country. His kind heart, and booming voice will place him forever as an outstanding member of singer/songwriters in Canada.

One of the best lyrics I've ever read and sang. Archie Fisher not only was writing like this but he was also using alternate guitar tunings, opening a whole new style of playing for me and many others. Stan and Garnet Rogers did an awesome job of this song and when I first heard it in the early 80's, I was an instant Stan, Garnet, and Archie Fisher fan. I learned as many of their songs as I could and that paved the way to the continuous gigs all over the Maritimes for over three decades.

Another staple of my live shows over many years, I am grateful for the body of work and the wide variety of topics this wonderful man provided for entertainers like myself. Hat's off to you Mr. Prine, and may you rest easy.

I wrote this a few years back and ended up putting it on my first CD project in 2013. The idea started by driving home from a show in the early morning through Marshy Hope, Nova Scotia. It was autumn and all the spectacular colours from the maples and aspens had fallen. It was reflective of those grey times in life and for me mirrored the toll of being a musician on the road and trying to help raise a family.

An absolute classic song by Billy Joel. It was more or less the beginning of his vast contribution to our musical world.

I started composing this many years ago and didn’t complete it until on one of my first nights in northern Alberta I saw the Northern Lights for the first time.
