Thank you for the encouraging messages about “Here Comes Johnny B Goode”. We thought we would revisit “Galway Girl” and see what happens.
The American singer/songwriter Steve Earle wrote this over 20 years ago . It’s been enthusiastically adopted by the Celtic Nation, and is now played all over the world.
In the second part of the video we play the song again, but in the key of D.
We set ourselves a goal of thinking up a song to do, making a plan, setting the camera and performing it inside the hour. We had to cut corners to do that, and the first corner that got cut was the run through before recording. That’s why Karen struggled with the Bm chord.
Looking at the finished video we imagine that this is what you see from your seats during a normal Saturday afternoon session .
We hope you’re keeping safe and like Galway Girl,- there’s more in the pipeline
Compulsive viewing on a Saturday guys.
Played both songs over and over again just one thing though in the chorus of Johnny B good on the last line playing the “D” to the end of the line sounds funny? What am I doing wrong?
Hilarious – just like the usual Saturday session banter!
Thanks

I had a job when I was about 13 shovelling shit (chicken shit ) the best part was learning to drive a tractor with a bucket on the front,the worst part was shovelling and cleaning into the corners of the sheds.
my money was $3.00 per day
P.s. all the dead birds made it less pleasant

We just love playing Galway Girl. Have had a good singalong starting at 12 noon today. We miss our Saturday sessions and the drive down to Rosebud. Thanks again. I agree with Don Bennie’s comment about Johnny B. Goode. I think we should change to G on the last word in the chorus “Goode”
What better way to spend a chilly wet Saturday afternoon. The joy you two bring, to me especially, knows no bounds. I thank Val for introducing me to you & Spukes & whilst I struggle at times I won’t give up!
Well done guys! very entertaining.👏🏻 Love your work!

Thank you, both of you,
I hope you understand how important your contribution is to this community.

Thank You!
