California 34 - Ohio 6

Posted over 2 years ago
Here is a useless bit of Blair trivia for ya...i have 34 songs with California in the title, only 6 Ohio songs. Can you name the super six? Yes...its is that boring here.Leave it to Mark Eitzel to give such a hopeful, optimistic song an edge of angst.A very cool version of one one of the truly great songs ever.

  6. B42 says Earl Scruggs, Doc Watson and Ricky Skaggs Amazon - "For one historic evening, American music legends Earl Scruggs, Doc Watson and Ricky Skaggs joined forces as The Three Pickers, to film a concert for Public Television. The music they made before a North Carolina audience is as relaxed as a front porch picking session, informed by the skill and good humor of three master musicians who contributed so much to the creation and evolution of bluegrass music. With special guest Alison Krauss."

  14. Sean Balanger says At one point, I had that one on repeat for a long time. Then it and the whole album started to just drone on. I love that song though, but it is very mellow.

  15. SatisfiedMind614 says I love Sun Kil Moon...his album of modest mouse covers is one of my all time favorites!

  16. Sean Balanger says I heard about that but never got it. Wanna put it up on multiply if you get a chance... : ) I'm really liking that site, especially your magnitude of playlists. I "borrowed" the new Smashing Pumpkins and Joe Strummer from you...never heard Strummer before, but that's some good stuff.

  36. NeilNathan says i wrote this one for you blair, so you can add it to your cali collection if you dig it when henry told me, he and kevin had collaborated on a tune, i got to thinkin.... then all your california moving talk and my trip out there and desire to move out there as well, helped to birth this little ditty i was gonna record it and send it along sometime this summer, but your post lit a fire under me, so here you go, a rough version, but you'll get the idea

  40. Me and the Horse I Rode In On says That's why we need MOG-fest, MOG Records and The MOG World Tour. The ones just laid down like that are always the best...........don't you agree?

  41. NeilNathan says glad you like it blair bring on the ep lightning bolts of inspiration flowing through the ethers and translated quickly are indeed the most satisfying

  42. Me and the Horse I Rode In On says Blair..........have you decided on who should play you in the movie? Ep.............definitely. Me and Kevin were actually talking about writing an entire ep of "wanting to start over"-songs........but I am sure we'd both agree on being part of the Blair-EP. BTW...........where is the Kiddo?
