FReeper Canteen - Tunes For Our Troops - 23 June 2012

Our Troops Rock!!!! | The Canteen DJ's

[Drumbo]

I live high on a West (by God) Virginia ridge in the Ohio River valley at the foot of the mountains and I surely miss my ocean at Virginia Beach. I’m a born and raised seacoast boy and sometimes home seems forever ago.

Good night and sleep well, Drumbo. Thanks for playing the tunes and adding the notes for our troops. And thanks for your service to our country. You and Mikey are in my prayers.

The tracks pass within a mile of my Mission Ridge Kathy, but the whistles echo all through the valley and can be heard coming and going for miles off yonder.

I’ve noticed fewer coal trains lately. Arch Coal just announced a massive layoff and three more mines are closing down forever in WV, KY and VA as well as a few power plants that can’t jump through the EPA regulators flaming hoops. Mr. Peabody and Consol are next on the hit list I reckon and if things don’t chance soon, coal is as dead as the dinasaurs as well as all the service industries that support the coal fields. Our democratic Governor and senators won’t even attend the dem convention for fear they’ll be seen as supporting the obamamonster, but they haven’t the cajones to say they’ll vote against him either. They’ve raided the treasury and fiddle while Rome burns.

After the curtin fell on Cream's final act, Eric Clapton and Ginger Baker moved on to a short-lived stint with Blind Faith featuring Steve Winwood and Jack Bruce persued a solo and writting career. One song in particular from his Songs For A Taylor album was written for Felix Pappalardi's new band Mountain, which faithfully carried on the new tradition Cream had established. It's a very nice song, "no regrets".

On November 26, 1968, Cream played their final farewell concert at the Royal Albert Hall. It was the last time Eric Clapton, Jack Bruce and Ginger Baker would play together until their 1993 induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

So ends another whirlwind music appreciation session buckaroos. Class dismissed. Stay safe, Happy FReeping, God bless, take nothing for granted and I'll see you in church.

Hi Pal. Do you think mylife actually knows that Clapton played with Atomic Rooster in the early 60’s before his Yardbirds gig, or did he just stumble over that video while surfing youtube and the sammitch made him hungry?

[Kathy in Alaska]

Every time I hear about your state, I think of the effort to kill the coal industry completely......it is appalling what the obamamonster has done to our once great country and some of the dims refuse/refused to see it. Now that their states are failing I wonder if the light is dawning.

We are fighting the feds, and the dims, and the enviro weenies now about using any of our resources. And much of our drilling equipment has gone down to North Dakota.

Rest well, Drumbo....((HUGS))

Thank you, MsB and sweet dreams to you!

I was just lookin for a sammitch

More properly stated “I was just lookin’ for a Sangwich”

[Drumbo]

ROTFL!

[Drumbo]

You don’t tawk good.

[Drumbo]

... and I don’t remember good. It was “The Roosters” that Clapton started out with, but I seem to recall Carl Palmer did a stint with Atomic Rooster before he hit it big with The Crazy World of Authur Brown. Old age ain’t pretty but it’s all I got.
