BOB SHANE- SCOTCH AND SODA 8/18/07

There's a fantastic PBS special about the Kingston Trio, and I bought the DVD about three years ago. I watched it last night. I've been a fan since the 50's, and there's never been a sexier song or singer than Bob Shane.

Shane did retire but has performed with the trio on specail occasion from time to time.

what fun and how interesting how long the song languished until the Trio made it such a favourite.

I thought he retired in 2005!

His voice is just as good as it was back then....

Bob, you still have it! I have been a fan since their first release in the 1950's. As a musician, I have covered many of their songs. Of course, I didn't make as much money from them as they did. LOL But I may have had as much fun. Thank you Kingston Trio.

Music is memories and this song brings back so many good ones. I can remember, in a slight moment of intoxication, walking down a steet in Toronto, singing this song with a friend. A great song, a great friend, a great momment.

I am proud to perform this with Club D'Jive and The Bruce Barley Combo. Classic! No one can top Bob Shane on this. He "owns" this song. RIP John Stewart. You are missed.

Haul away joe, that was one of my favorite obscure Kingston Trio songs.I loved DG's flailing banjo style in it. I wasn't aware they all got together more recently before John Stewart died. Was that in Phoenix? Too bad the producer of "Wherever we may go" couldn't post some of the concert/ tv footage she must have waded through to create the film. Thanks Again

HOW MUCH do I love this song? Ive been singing this for donkeys years. Its the only song short enough to remember all of when you are drunk, and makes the PERFECT party piece!:-D
