While we bumble around here trying to get our next posts ready (long story) , thought you might enjoy a little uplift, WB-style. This song almost an anthem of his/ours, often played at the start of some busy or wonderful day, us never tiring of the amazing arrangement, energy, joy--- and The Count's unparallelled efficiency and elegance of his delightful "solo" (there really were many points in this track where we would laugh out loud in delight and enjoyment) ; an anthem to the optomistic belief that today (and maybe even tomorrow if we got lucky) would indeed be Fair and Warmer (spotify link)
enjoy
Edit: sometimes spotify brings you to the right song, but when you press play, it advances to the next track. So make sure you're playing track "11" - Fair and Warmer. Accept no substitutes!
Can’t edit my own post above (had to nuke the profile).
‘But here’s “Fair and Warmer” (plus an opening Grammerly ad or some shit) on YouTube
Damn -- things were moving so fast over the holidays, I forgot about this magnificent performance I had planned to post. It’s the troubadour nonpareil Paul Brady, performing the definitive version of the only christmas carol that made sense to the part of the family with the blood of Éire in our veins: Arthur McBride
Thanks for the link.... This is new stuff for me!!
somebody asked me a while back how many of my suggestions were ever taken . Here's one that was rejected. I thought this tune would be a kickass band opener for the start of the show . it could easily accommodate a blowing section for every instrument, had the right vibe, even a good fanfare for the D&W walk on... what's not to like, right? needless to say it never went anywhere .
who is that Muppet drummer -- Monster ? -I always see him in my minds' eye around 2:40 - 2:60 ...
Wonderful song. And I am leaving chilly Kentucky tonight to go on vacation and take a Caribbean cruise, so fair and warmer indeed for me! :)
