About Bath Tub Blues
Amazon.com Over the past 20 years Greg Brown has won the hearts of folk and blues-rocker fans everywhere with his rich baritone and five-star songwriting. On this 1993 recording, Brown and a variety of kids from Iowa--all aspiring songwriters, it seems--deliver 16 songs that mix public domain treasures such as "I See the Moon," Elizabeth Cotton's "Shake Sugaree," and Mississippi John Hurt's "Payday" with charming originals such as "Late Night Radio," "Flabbergabble," "So Long, You Old Tooth," the title track, and the funny "Four Wet Pigs." With lyrics like "The tuna is tired, the seahorse is sleepy" ("Down at the Sea Hotel"), or about the touching trials of "Young Robin," Brown and his kid company create a collection of songs that are as fanciful as they are wistful, witty, and wise. This is also a great introduction for parents who have been encouraged to seek out such Brown classics as 44 & 66, Further In, The Iowa Waltz, or his brilliant recording of William Blake's Songs of Innocence and of Experience, also ripe for children ages 4 to 94. --Martin Keller Product Description A GRAMMY WINNING CD by an American folk icon and colorful subject of the film "THE BALLAD OF RAMBLIN JACK!" This is the finest collection of songs and performances from his later career. The CD also features liner notes by Jerry Jeff Walker, Guy Clark, Bob Weir, Jackson Brown and several other admirers and saddle pals. There is not a less-than-magnificent track to be found anywhere on the disc and his performance of the title track - a classic tale of Old California - is definitive! Review "Hes influenced more famous musicians than any other picker a True American Treasure." -- Jerry Jeff Walker About the Artist There are few to whom the word "legend" can authentically be applied, but count Ramblin Jack among them. One of the last great figures of that incredible circle that included Woody Guthrie and Jack Kerouac, and one of the primary influences on Bruce Springsteen and Bob Dylan, Jack has indelibly left his mark on American music. His real life story has been so colorful, it is the kind that some singers (and their publicists) have been known to fabricate. He left home at 14 wanting to be a cowboy and ended up on an American odyssey. His music is filled with the stories of the folks he has met on that journey. It is a repertoire that knows no parallel and represents on the richest relationships between a singer and his song that the folk genre has ever known.
