In one of those moments of serendipity that I do so love, I was channel surfing tonight and PBS was broadcasting "Playing for Change" the source of the above clip.  It was then I discovered that the Grandpa Elliot of New Orleans is the same man I searched for for 7 days when I was there in 2004.  He is by far the greatest harmonica player I have ever heard, I saw him the first day but could not find him again. Considering what happened in 2005, it was a joy to see him playing again.

 

Anyway, I'll jump off that particular train and here is another great song from a great project....

Ok I'm back on the train, here is a sample of what captivated me on that sunny day in New Orleans, if this don't make you want to dance y'all ain't breathin'....

Keep adding them - there are some great songs!!! the dvd is really enjoyable, my kids have been listening to the cd like crazy, and I'm particularly fond of Keb Mo, Washboard Chaz and Tula.

we've been listening to the dvd while we made supper... just finished with this song about 5 minutes ago!! Groovy - I love his bottom lip :)

 

When that was done I watched the Elmo/Katy Perry video & the Grover Disco one on Momfruitcake's thread :)

Now, back to Keb Mo!!!  bah-ba-bah-ba-bah...
