"..Way haul away, we'll haul away Joe..!"

There's a funny story attached to the hat. When I was in Seattle it was snowing and I needed a functional, warm hat to cover my head while walking in and out of the office. So in a sale in a gale , I picked up a wooly hat which covered my ears and it was indeed functional and warm and I thought no more about it. When I came home D took an inordinate shine to this blue wooly peaked hat and of course I told her I'd shopped high and low for this very special hat for my daughter. Since then D and the hat have become inseperable. Aswell as the obvious fashion statement (or sub-clause) it makes, it serves many additional uses. She can be seen above using the hat to keep her hair out of her eyes while eating her breakfast. And also using it as an authentic prop in her Makem and Clancy routine.

Pentatonic Free Jazz


Saturday morning discos have been going unplugged for the past couple of weeks. It's not easy playing along to Kanye West with a Fisher Price Xylophone and a small red guitar, but sure, if it was easy everybody'd be doing it. Some more photos from this truly unique session below.....


Anyway, eat up!

This song needs a melodica solo...
