House At Pooh Corner

[stevarino1989]

I never knew that the Nitty Gritty Dirt band originally recorded this song! I always thought it was Kenny Loggins. I kind of like Kenny's version better mainly because of the acoustic guitar. But this one is cool too! :)

[kiffegle]

I grew up listening to the album. The whole album is wonderful.

[drhopperchopper]

I am 57 now an I think I was 15 or 16 growing up in Fayetteville Ar when NGDB did a free show on the lawn of ole main at the U of A tokeing on a duby siping a little boons farm hanging on to your sweety . Oh man to go back to your youth,,, Then you wake up ,,, to find hay man I havent changed much,,, Hay man flip the record ,,the songs over

[lindastarling]

Brings back great memories of college days in 1970 !!

[daves543]

Great song. While I happen to like this version (Nitty Gritty Dirt Band) over Kenny Loggins, that's just personal taste. I like the instrumentals backing up the song. Thanks for posting

[runninnekkid]

There's another single on this album.... "It came from the Fifties"....I'd love to find it posted!!

[MiniMurphy222]

Brings back memories.....

[SuperHigear]

First time I ever heard this song, this album, and of the "Nitty Gritty Dirt Band" was in 1970 while going through Army Basic Trainning at Fort Leonard Wood Mo. I loved the album then,...and love it even more now. Great music!

[AllThatGlistens1413]

This song was playing when i was born...

[rakiller1]

They are playing the Country Stamped this year in Manhattan KS! I am so excited! I grew up listening to NGDB and they are still one of my favorite bands ever!

[MrJcdc3]

2 people are lost

[dasspine58]

Reminds me of an old friend

[bobbo1948]

One of my all-time favorite albums and songs. Eat your heart out Kenny Loggins.

[onlywhenimdancing]

@bobbo1948 Kenny Loggins wrote it.

[rdvqc]

One of many grand albums over the many years of this fine band. Takes me back to university days when I hear the old ones.

[isuckaman]

A poignant song...

[jasonsgroovemachine]

I kept telling people that NGDB did this. No one beilieved me. Well, we shall see who has the last laugh now.

[POPAVIDEO]

encore merci au NGDB pour cette fabuleuse version du titre des super doués LOGGINS & MESSINA .

BRAVO .

[bobbo1948]

Underrated but not under appreciated. Great song. Great group.

[jtmichaelson]

The remaster of this album is absolutely beautiful. "Some Of Shelly's Blues" and "Mr. Bojangles" sound better than ever before. But this song is the highlight of the album. Thanks for posting this precious song.

[bobbo1948]

One of my all-time favorite albums. Love this song.

[Sarahjunga]

[fillyfan1]

[gazoontight]

Thanks for posting this one!

[theoriginalbadbob]

I've seen them sing this song, in person. "Sing the song, Teddy."

[indigohippiechic]

my dad is really Ill right now, and this song reminds me of him, he used to sing this to my son back when he was a baby (20 years ago!) :-) thank you for posting this.

[Oldiesmann]

The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band's version is much better than the original by Kenny Loggins. Thanks for sharing!

[zephrah]

This is such a wonderful feel good song. Such an innocent time in life...sweet memories. I love Winnie the Poo. Nitty Gritty Dirt Band is awesome. Thanks for posting.

Peace. One Love, Lilee

:D

[zephrah]

@Giorgetto  Awesome comment...Me too.

[olchum13]

ive loved this song most of my life and still i think this is the best version.Dylan a close second perhaps but i am bias lol

[gazoontight]

Another great one!

[chrisharro]

Winnie The Pooh doesn't know what to do/Got a honey-jar stuck on his nose - I love the way the band sings this almost kids' song with adult intensity, thereby bringing us all together who read and are now reading this stuff! Go NGDB!

[2Quickdraw]

Back to the days of Pooh I wish.

[TambourineDream]

FANTASTIC. Oh, this brings back memories (even though I'm only fifteen...). I grew up listening to the Loggins and Messina version, but this version is great as well. It's the first time I've heard it. I love the wah effect on the guitar; very late sixties/early seventies. It's such a great song that seems to celebrate the innocence and wonderment of childhood and imagination.

[fobab]

love the album, propiquity, santa rosa, etc

[agentleman121]

Does anyone know if this is available on CD? It was on the album titled "Dirt, Silver, & Gold." I would love to have that entire 3-record set on CD. Let me know. Thanks.

[northendnorman]

@agentleman121 i think you can get it on Amazon

[bobthedistroyer]

@agentleman121

[deckyeti]

One of my favorite bands. And they HAVE been around forever: I saw them in a hockey arena in Marquette, Michigan in the mid-'70s. One of the best concerts I ever attended.

[CadillacL]

Wow, I never knw the dirt band recorded this. Awesome version.

[commventam]

I beleive this was the first time the song was released, although Loggins wrote it. He and Jim Messina didn't record it and release it until later

[100jules]

Love the NGDB! They've been around forever and its unfortunate that they've never received (in my opinion) true recognition of their talent. Guess that's why their fans love them, because in spite of this they never disappoint!

[BOZO32851]

@100jules

You are so right-I remember seeing them in college at Wake Forest, Winston-Salem, North Carolina back in 1975 and they played for over 4 hours and they were incredible-Jeff, Jimmy, Les, etc.

[olchum13]

great album have the original treble albums in the( safe sleeve)backin the late 70s early seventys in oxford uk

[dancingwdeer]

Hello, Could you please post more songs from this album? Please.

This album is one of my alltime favorites and I love their versions of Mike Nesmith's songs.

[matthewolchum]

it doesnt get much better than this

[JandJproductions2009]

this is a good song

[emorocks91]

Me and my little sister love them our parents got us listening to them at an early age. This song was always our favorite

[SecretProphet]

Alaska State Fair 1976: My wife and I heard they were gonna be there so, we went. I played in bands (still do at 57) and knew who they were. Hardly anyone showed up. They played on a baseball field and they "set up' at home plate. There was hardly enough people to fill the inside diamond between 1st and 3rd. They fired off with "The Moon Just Turned Blue Goodbye Goodbye" and played their butts off . Ah, the good old days! God I still love them!

[anna5amour]

I was there! I was 18 and went up to Alaska to work on the rail road that summer and fall. The state fair was a riot and the NGDB was awesome. made me a fan for life.

[bluesol59]

A good good memories.I had it on tape.All the best songs in it.Love the old man and his dog Teddy."Teddy! com 'ere teddy..I want you to sing a song.."

[Grabme777]

This is the best!!! I had this album when I was a teenager and loved it!! Makes me want to get it again.

[glomofnit]

night before thanksgiving, mid 70's, biggest tavern in Vancouver,wa. So crowded we had to sit BEHIND the band. Fantastic music, fantastic night.

[45sGuy]

I have this on 2 or more 45's. I think that two of them are promo copies. AWESOME song! Better than the Kenny Loggins version IMO.

This song was a cool follow-up to their big hit, "Buy For Me The Rain".

ROCK ON!!

[agentleman121]

I love this group and never tire of hearing them.

[agentleman121]

Amen, I am with you on that brother.

[surfside48]

1971 United Artists Records. I got the 45rpm record that year while stationed in Bermerton, Washington with the US Navy. Flip side is "Travelin' Mood." Still have it in the sleeve. Thanks for posting!

[RoyFive]

BTW--Can Clinch Mountain Backstep (from the same album) be put up? That would mean a lot to me.

[BigHornCanyon]

Great rendition of this whimsical song!

[MosaicMessiah]

My middle name was going to be Robin,but my Mother wouldnt have it...

I Love this song!!!

Your Son is truly in a better place mskittykatty.

I even had the Winnie the Pooh bed sheets,I had nightmares looking at Rabbit stuck in the tree...

[gothsdontcry]

Best version imho,thx for posting.Don't suppose you could post "Some of Shelly's Blues" from this incredible album eh?

[agentleman121]

Yes, that is a good choice. Thank you for your request. I am a Nitty Gritty Dirt Band buzzard. Thanx for advice. Jeff says if you will give a million dollars toward the planet he will stand on anyone's face.

[RoyFive]

Sounds like Jeff ("They've got a beer called 'Jeff?'")!!

[agentleman121]

I remember hearing that on the "Dirt, Silver & Gold" album, which I also had on audio cassette, then gave those away. Now I want it on CD, but it is hard to find. It is not something the kids today clamor for. Jeff Hanna is hilarious. That is him saying, "They got a beer named Jeff?"

[RoyFive]

Right--in the song Bowlegs!

[agentleman121]

"They gotta a beer with my name one it!" Jeff Hanna (slightly intoxicated).

Jimmy Ibbotson (another great singer in his own right): "You mean they gotta a beer named Jeff?" That is a classic line from some classic fellas. I love this kinda music. That is simply hilarious. I guess you had to be there.

[RoyFive]

LOL--wish I had been, agentleman21, but I loved it nonetheless. I agree with you about Jimmy, btw. And that mandolin of his...!!

[agentleman121]

I saw them in their hey day at Six Flags Over Mid America (now renamed Six Flags-St. Louis). It was an awesome concert on June 30, 1978. They happened to mention during the concert that they would be in Ballwin, Missouri (a suburb of St. Louis) the following day, which was July 1, 1978. Jeff Hanna mixed his own cement to put his hands and feet in there. I asked him why he was mixed his own cement instead of having an aide do it. He said he mixed cement for a living before he hit it big.

[mskittykatty]

this song is for my son. always. he is heaven now. rest in sweet peace my son. I love you always.

[agentleman121]

This makes me happy. I just love this rendition of this song. I want to listen to it a lot. It makes me happy. Pastor Jim Harrelson, Spring Church, St. louis, Missouri, USA

[jgstargazer]

This song was hitting the airwaves when I saw my future first love. She had light brown hair down to her waist and always wore dresses. She wore slight rouge on her cheeks and had a quiet and innocent look to her. She was so pretty.

[wgibbens]

that's beautiful man.

[Qickdraw]

Married the gal that went with me to see them in 1972

[gothsdontcry]

The best version hands down.Thx for posting this classic.

[DENISEKOETTING]

Heard this when I was a sophomore in high school. Long before Bojangles made it big. Made me an original Dirt Band fan. I think I have every single record, CD, album, etc that they have released. What talent. And they are good guys. Can't beat that.

Thanks for the music,NGDB!

[RUTHWEB98]

wow

[dogdigger50]

just always liked the ngdb and this song

[Feinmess]

Wow, never heard that version before and I think teh NGDB did a great job.

[maryflynn]

I always like this version best!

[agentleman121]

Me too I like the drums and the lead singer, Jeff Hanna.

[drcrumpler]

Heard the NGD Band do this before Kenny Loggins. I like both, but there's something for the rendition you hear for the first time. Always something special in my heart for the Band's version of this sentimental tune.

[agentleman121]

Kenny Loggins redid this with Christian singer Amy Grant in 1994. It has an extra verse on that version and is worth listening to.

[billgr0248]

Sheet...I am 60 & I remember this from when I was in my 20's...life is good!

[robyn2975]

oh geeze this is awesome im 33 years old now i sang this when i was 3 yrs old

[FergusonTO35]

The Dirt Band is awesome, I've been listening to them since I was a little kid on a farm.

[psykrishna]

GREAT TRACK! !! GOOD MEMORIES THXX

[gmkell59]

Add me to the Group Thanks for putting this one on most do not remember it, Cheers!!

[Santanadallas]

When I was assigned overseas I heard this song and I got so nostalgic after hearing his beautiful ALL American accent that I made a decision right then and there that I wanna move back to the U.S. and I did. I owe it to this song as crazy as this sounds...

[bawss1]

Dude we use to play this album over and over. "here teddy chord with this." parts with Uncle Charlie were recorded not too far from here up in Springville, California.

[sexynsassybaby]
