C’est La Vie (You Never Can Tell)

Originally posted on March 18, 2018

On this day in 2017 the music world lost the legendary Chuck Berry.

“They had a hi-fi phono, boy, did they let it blast
Seven hundred little records, all rock, rhythm and jazz
But when the sun went down, the rapid tempo of the music fell
"C'est la vie", say the old folks, it goes to show you never can tell”

DAVID MALLETT
Jim Rooney on the Death of Singer-Songwriter David Mallett
MASTODON POST

Attached are Jim Rooney's memories of David Mallett.  This is no small thing.  Rooney is a very long-time and prominent professional in the music and recording businesses.

mmone.org/jim-rooney/

He got started performing on Boston's WCOP Hayloft Jamboree for my own personal merry mayor, Nelson Bragg, the "Merry Mayor of Milo, Maine" (the place of my very own birth).  He has produced Grammy-nominated albums by Tom Paxton, John Prine, and Peter Rowan.  Rooney was one of the key players in the rise of Nanci Griffith.  Rooney produced at least three albums for a singer-songwriter I much admire, Iris DeMent.  Jim Rooney has done a lot since his 1950s start.  So, to get a little context here, Rooney's recollections of David Mallett have a great deal of professional weight behind them.  This Facebook post by Rooney came from a Web search hitlist on a related but different topic.  While going through the hitlist, it was apparent his post had been reposted I don't know how many times. David Mallett was from Sebec, Maine, which shares a town line with my old hometown, Milo. Being easily among his first fans, I have three singles by his 1960s group, The Mallett Brothers, and two tracks by his next duo, Hinkley and Mallett with memorable guitarist Don Hinkley.

Ted Tocks Covers - Year 7 - Day 91

Killing the Blues

Happy 75th Birthday to song writer Roly Salley!

He gave us’ Killing the Blues’. I was introduced to this song by John Prine but an impressive list of artists have recorded it through the years.

“I am guilty of something
I hope you never do because there is nothing
Sadder than losing…yourself in love”

Ted Tocks Covers · Killing the Blues – Somebody said they saw me swinging the world by the tail, bouncing over a white cloud. #MusicisLife #TedTocksCovers #JohnPrine #RolySalleyThere is a certain level of emotion that comes through in music, and when it is done right the dial on the monitor gets turned to 11 and there is just no going back. A song gets burned indelibly in…
