Just Play Music™ | My Grandfather's Clock

From the Blues and Traditional Episode of Just Play Music™, I'm joined by classic blues picker Fuzzy Island. For this impromptu session, we decided to cover an old Henry Clay Work tune (from the 1800s). I remembered this tune growing up as a kid. We'd never played it before...so what you're seeing/hearing, happened live, as the cameras rolled...Just Play Music. :)

 
 
This is an excerpt from the Blues and Traditional Music episode. I'm joined by classic blues picker Fuzzy Island. Here, we decide to cover an old Henry Clay Work lullabye from the 1800s. I remembered this tune growing up as a kid, and you may too. We'd never played it together before; what you're seeing/hearing happened live.

Just Play Music™ is a show about showcasing the passion, joy and incredible feelings derived simply by playing live music in a very natural, impromptu kind of way. Each episode focuses on a topic (like 'The Blues' or 'Dynamics') and I'll play several songs showcasing some of the highlights of the topic/theme.
