    Saw Charlie here in London, what a treat. He really is one of the great ones.

    Just saw Charlie at the Jeezum Crow Festival at Jay Peak, VT, on Saturday - he was outstanding and very rightly well received.
    And he had a gig in Indiana the next day! Brutal, but a pro's pro, Charlie. So FN good.

    Far to good to have so few likes. Brilliant artist. Hope he and his minivan come to Canada soon.

    “A True friend is hard to find” is a Son House lyric from “grinnin’ in your face”
    Wonder if this is an homage or lovely coincidence.

      Homage, more than likely.

      I do Son's song a cappella at open mics and (rare) gigs and it FN kills. (Albeit I can't mimic his asynchronous hand clapping; I do it in time.) Such a powerful and ultimately true song, and Charlie is clearly paying homage to Son House.
      And who brought Son House back into the limelight (and retaught Son his own songs?) Alan "Blind Owl" Wilson of Canned Heat. Son called him the best harp player of all time, btw.

      @@mainek2132 I’m guilty of applying modern day synchronising when I’m singing it too!
      We can forgive Son, though. He was performing the music as he remembered it.

    Here’s a little thing about Mag and Stan hauling down the road in the winter time
    Riding on their thumbs but walking most of the way
    Stan used to hop trains but Mag’s afraid so they get their traveling done another way
    Just wanna get down south to where it’s warm
    True friends, true friends are hard to find
    To get one you gotta be one
    And then they’ll always be around
    An old guy stops in a beat-up ford and asks how far did they wanna go
    And Stan says we’re going all the way to the end
    This old guy he’s lost his wife and lost his grip on the rest of his life
    Just drives around now listening to the radio
    True friends, true friends are hard to find
    To get one you gotta be one
    And then they’ll always be around
    Now it’s 4 days on the road in that rusty ride and 3 nights sleeping out on the side
    Eating roadstand fruit, coffee and refried beans
    When they reach the gulf they all lay on the beach and soak up the sun and get used to the heat
    Talkin about how cold it is up in I. Falls
    True friends, true friends are hard to find
    To get one you gotta be one
    And then they’ll always be around
    There ain’t no end to their family, their web covers the whole country
    Maybe it ain’t true that we have to be alone
    Maybe they’ll just drive around pickin’ folks up, being yr friend when yr down on yr luck
    Maybe there’s a car big enough for us all
    True friends, true friends are hard to find
    To get one you gotta be one
    And then they’ll always be around
