Jimmy LaFave "Restless Spirits"
There were plenty of artists with an axe to grind at Folk Alliance. Final Music Fog count of songs that involved:
- Guns - 2
- Songs about scorned love - 17
- Dead dogs - 2
- Ex-wives - 7
- And restless spirits - 1
The restless spirit stuff always comes from Jimmy Lafave. He was the last to perform on the Celebrity Coaches bus on night #1. After a couple of delays on the first day, Jimmy did make it on board. The delay helped because it gave time for Rad, Jimmy's squeeze box player, to make it in from Iowa for the session. Jimmy also brought along John Fullbright on guitar and vocals. John is the latest Americana Music buzz around Austin, and you will see why on later videos we will post of him performing his music with Jimmy and Rad. For now, here is "Restless Spirits."
