I ain't homesick but have some of this

Not the greatest moment in the career of blind string picker Riley Puckett, but for sure a funny one. What caused him to sing a song about one of the worst German inventions ever is beyond my imagination, and bad it sure is. I know what I'm talking about, I was forced to eat it as a kid.

BTW, he's not saying 'N****r*, it's 'Vinegar'. But knowing some songs he recorded with the Skillet Lickers one could think so...

Rock'n'Roll Is Here To Stay

It sure is, especially in Finland, my home for 5 years now. Rockabilly is not nearly as much 'in your face' here as it used to be in the heydays of the big revival, but maybe it can happen only In Finland that you walk into a Pizza place run by a couple that looks way more 'modern day Hippie' than anything else and have the Flying Saucers blasting out from the speakers. Then, while enjoying your nice cold beer on that rare hot summer day, you notice this on the wall next to you: 

and get reminded that the streets of this country once were ruled by the Teds and that Cavan got gold records here. To be fair, the country's population is so small, I'd guess what you have to sell here to get a gold record would be considered a flop anywhere else. But still! Talking bout still, Cavan and his Rhythm Rockers are still rockin' as you will know. And tomorrow in Finland at the Real Gone Teddyboy Weekender. Just in time I got a Cavan Tattoo done, yesterday evening. It was about bloody time.
