Lookin’ at the World thru a windshield 10/10

Just got unloaded in Spartanburg, SC now waiting on dispatch to send me the next load. Once upon a time they sent us a pre-plan, so we knew what was next, now not so often. So when I know I’ll put it up. Ever wake up with a song in your head? today’s is “Little Wing”, Derek and the Dominoes version. (MR, this would be a good place for the Terraplane version)

  1. Why send you a pre-planned schedule?….. They would just change it!….. Sounds like a Government operation – You’re on a “Need To Know” basis, and, you’re last in line to be informed, but, the first to be chewed out when something goes wrong that you didn’t even know about happens – Been There!…..

    I’ll have to check with Jek to see if I can Post Terraplane’s version of “Little Wing”…… We had ’bout a 45 minute discussion on Copyrights yesterday, hence, the U-Tube embeds of the Beatles songs…..

  2. Well it has only taken 4,5 hours to decide that I am reloading at the same place that we just delivered at. Heading to Edmond, OK
    Just call me mushroom. (keep me in the dark & feed me BS.)

  3. I’m assuming that there is a heated debate going on still, since your last comment ended up in the trash. I’m still sitting in the same place I have been all day, waiting to get loaded.

  4. This sorry excuse for even a Mac and Cheese has ATE, and I mean literally ATE TWO (2), yes, 2 of my attempts to make a comment with the song you requested…… Oh, No, it wouldn’t do it just as I started – It waited until I had spent about 45 minutes polishing and getting everything just right, then BAM – IT’S GONE! – WHERE?, I don’t know….. I’ve looked everywhere – It’s not under the Mac, it’s not behind the Mac, and, I’m about at the point to see if it is IN THE MAC….. Where’s my screw gun?…… I had a nice story about “Little Wing” being part of a 3 song Jimi set we did, and all kinds of details and stuff – ALL GONE….. If I get the song on here, click this – Little Wing – If not, I think you’ll know what I clicked and it will be a satisfying ***B*O*O*M***

  5. Well, get a six-pack and we’ll both get loaded and you know I don’t drink….. I will figure out this silly Mac, or go in the living room and fire up the Windows Laptop….. It may be slow, but, I know how to make it do what I want it to – AND WHEN I want it to…… I’ll get that song up tomorrow at the latest – Got some other projects I need to finish up at the present…… Have fun watching the grass grow…….

  6. Well time to shut it down for this shift. 0600 was a long time ago. So we find ourselves in Hurricane Mills, TN (home of country legend Loretta Lynn) Hope I can go to sleep after tonights FZ diet (coffee and cigarettes). till later today…….

  7. Just how many people live in Hurricane Mills, TN, anyway?….. Is that somewhere just outside of Memphis or just outside Nashville?….. There’s not too many more towns in Tennessee!…….

  8. I finally figured out how to get the song you requested up – Maybe?……  “Little Wing” was the first song of a compilation of 3 Hendrix songs…..  It was “Little Wing”, into “All Along the Watchtower”, into “Rainy Day”, and then into the alley for a break……  These were recorded on 24JAN76 at the Stone Ranger Saloone in OKC…..  We used this to end the second set….  Back in those days, a band usually played four 45 minute sets a night, not, like bands now that bitch at having to play ONE 45 minute set…..  The SRS was set-up weird and the only place I could squeeze the recorder in was near the end of the band where Dan’s amp was and about halfway behind the PA speaker on that side, therefore, Dan’s guitar is a bit loud and Randy’s vocals are a little muddy…..  Maybe a little Post Mixing one of these days….  Due the length of all three, I cut them into separate songs, so the ending of “Little Wing” may sound a bit strange as we are really going directly into “Watchtower”……  Okay, Okay, Okay, here’s Little Wing …..  If you want to hear the other two, let me know……

  9. keep the updates coming J. Bet you see a lot of beautiful landscape. MR of course we want to hear the other two.

  10. Here’s all I can find on Hurricane Mills.
    From Wikipedia:
    Hurricane Mills is an unincorporated community in Humphreys County, Tennessee, United States. It is the home of Loretta Lynn’s ranch, which serves as the center of the community. While residential in nature, there are some businesses in the area, several of which are located in the “downtown” area of the Lynn ranch. This is also the location of the post office which services the southern portion of Humphreys County. Hurricane Mills is also the home of the Loretta Lynn amateur motocross race held every year in August.

  11. Yeah Robo I do get to see a lot of this beautiful country of ours. I hope that as soon as I can figure out the phone thing figured out I can put up some photos along the way. Or If I can get the Laptop figured out that will make it easier. I’m glad all of you are enjoying this.

  12. Just don’t short-circuit with all that “Figuring Out”…… A photo or two would be enjoyable, but not a necessity….. J.J. has a way of describing things as they are….. (That was a compliment, Boy!….. maybe?)…….

    Also, as Robo requested, here is “All Along the Watchtower” and “Rainy Day” See Comment #8 for “Little Wing” and some details on the recordings…… Not the best quality, but it’s only Rock ‘n’ Roll…..
