SATURDAY SELF-CHALLENGE

HIGH KEY PHOTOGRAPHY
And for 'Sight and Sound' I was about to give up on finding a sensible link. But, I have just come up with a totally obscure link!!!
I have seen on the internet that "a major third musical key sounds happy to our ears". Music by 'Hot Club of Cowtown' makes me happy for sure so let's assume that some of their music is done in "a major third musical key" :-)
We have seen them at The Stables, Wavendon at least 4 times in the last few years. In fact, we will be seeing them play at The Stables again, fairly soon :-)
Elana James.......Violin & Vocals
Whit Smith..........Guitar & Vocals
Jake Irwin............Bass
Elana comes from Prairie Village, Kansas, Whit Smith from Cape Cod, Massachusetts and Jake Erwin from Tulsa, Oklahoma. They formed in 1997. They split briefly in 2005 but, thankfully, got back together and they regularly tour the UK.
In the video I wish that Elana and Jake had swapped places because I keep worrying that Elana is going to poke Whit with the violin bow :-)))

~ Explored! ~ Thank you very much :-)))
'Hot Club of Cowtown' are one of my fave live bands. We are so very fortunate to have seen them play live three or four times. The last time we saw them must have been about eighteen months ago and on that occasion I was very concerned that Elana didn't seem to be especially well. So, I was absolutely delighted to see that Elana looks so well in the video (from about a year ago) that I am using :-)) And, I am even more delighted that I have just received confirmation that we now have tickets to see them live in the early part of next year :-)))))
'Hot Club of Cowtown' are -
Elana James (Prairie Village, Kansas) ~ Fiddle, Vocals
Whit Smith (Cape Cod, Massachusetts) ~ Guitar, Vocals
Jake Erwin (Tulsa, Oklahoma) ~ Upright Bass, Vocals
The band split in 2005 but officially reformed in early 2008. As far as I know, when they are not touring, they are based in Austin, Texas.
“Ida Red” is an American traditional song of unknown origins. It has been recorded by lots of peeps but the best known version is probably by Bob Wills & His Texas Playboys.
The song starts with -
Light's in the parlor, fire's in the grate,
Clock on the mantle says it's a'gettin' late,
Curtains on the window, snowy white,
The parlor's pleasant on Sunday night.
My clock was on a mantle and it shows the time was approx. 21:30 hrs which is late :-) So, I figure I have explained my 'Sight and Sound' link to perfection :-)))
