Big Black Bird

Big Black Bird

Big Black Bird was written with a middling passel of songs back in 1986. I have rehearsed it for the past week and it has been pesky to get a passable take for whatever reason. I will probably revisit in a month or two, as my playing has continued to get better with practice.

I like the contrasting sections, they keep things interesting by forcing you to shift gears, touch and tone at a couple points.

Lucy settled in after her cruncher muncher and was an appreciative audience.

PS – the Piggly Wiggly shirt is a relic of years of freeloading with my in-laws when they lived at Edisto Beach, SC. The Pig was the only show in town for groceries unless you drove off the island to Hollywood and went to the Wiggly there…
