tumblin' tumbleweeds -cowboy uke...

i'm dedicating this song to Mike Seeger's memory.....i was surprised to hear of his recent passing....

though i'm much more familiar with his older (half or step?) brother, Pete Seeger's work, i have some songs by him and the new lost city ramblers....and i know he was very passionate about passing on the tradition of 'old-time' and 'homemade' music....rest in peace Mike....

i'd like to also dedicate the utilization of my 'gosh darn' hat and my HD blu-blocker wrap arounds to my friend Mary-Anne.....

I think it was written in 1934 by Bob Nolan one of the first "Sons of the Pioneers".

The cds came today, Todd, thank you. I bought a set for one of my brothers...I have 5 and 4 sisters! Hard to beat the U.S. postal service. No, they didn't bring my brothers and sisters but they brought the cds very quickly. Best wishes. ...Bill
