This Week's Freebie from The 1937 Flood

This week's freebie features a rather rapid visit to an old standard.

The drink of choice at The Flood's weekly rehearsals is Community Coffee from Baton Rouge, Louisiana. But there is a downside. After a few cups of this strong, rich, dark brew, the tunes tend to get a bit livelier.

There's a standing joke that after Charlie's had a coupla mugs of joe, he starts kicking the tunes off too fast. Here's a case in point. We don't usually do "Blue Moon" at such a lively clip as this. But, hey, some of us kinda like it like this -- it's got a nice kick, though we're not sure you'd wanna dance to it. See what you think. Click here to hear the tune!

And speaking of audio… As we've mentioned earlier, The Flood had a fun time on a pleasant Wednesday last May when The Red Barn Radio Show invited us to Lexington, Ky., for an evening. Recently, producer/director Ed Commons sent us a disc of the show and we're happy to share with our extended Family Flood. Click here to hear the entire show!

By the way, if you haven't checked out our Facebook page, we hope you will. And we've made it easy for you. Just click here! And be sure to click the "Like" button at the top of the Facebook so you'll be kept up to date on all the Flood doin's.

Finally, remember that the tunes from the jam sessions make up our weekly Flood podcasts. You can subscribe for free and get the music automatically delivered to your computer each Thursday. For details on that, click here.
