As winter descends on southern WV, I dug back into my video archive to the day after Christmas 2011 and found a ride along a Country Road Taylor made for motorcycling.

A fun road if there ever was one troll. And yep, Mr. Taylor performed the best live show spkldoe and me have ever seen. We drove 2 hours and back on a work night to make it happen. To see him in concert again is on my bucket list.

That was awesome, spklbuk. Some real easy cruisin'. Really nice. Can't beat James Taylor. Nossir. Hot damn. Got me all worked up now, better go grab my banjo. Nice use of minor chords in the first part, and not nearly enough banjo but great tunes. Thanks for that. plum brightened up my day. ::008:: ::003:: ::008:: R

But a loooooooooooong way from Whitehorse. That's okay, it almost got above freezing yesterday. Only 2 more months. R ::008::

Ahhh, very nice!...and certainly Taylor made for the occasion. JT's tunes still make me wanna drop whatever I'm doing and just enjoy the listen.

2 months is aplenty of time for you to occupy yourself producing a video of yer banjo playing to tide us over until you can pay a visit to WV for some infused native elixir :lamp: ...which (or so I'm told) adds a whole new twang to one's banjo picking :exclaim:

When you get back home, stop by and ride a few that will conjure up the spirit of this tune.

Snow and ice here yesterday. Below freezing today means no riding for me. Thanks for giving me a ride along.

In all the videos I've made only had a chance to use Mr. Taylor once. Love his playing, he's a hell of a talent.

I've been grounded by the same weather system that cleared from my southeast mtns this morning...sunny and a balmy 25*F. Wind must have hit 50mph easy last night and still not doing too bad on the back side of the front. Just came in from a romp in the drifts with the pooch, shoveling critical part of driveway and laying in another nights supply of firewood....THINK SPRING!

Mr. Taylor, love his playing, he's ALL talent.
I fixed it for ya ;D
