SOMETHING IN THE RAIN
By Tish Hinojosa

Mom and dad have worked the fields, I don't know how many years
I'm just a boy but I know how, and go to school when work is slow
We have seen our country's road, Bakersfield from Illinois
And when troubles come our way, oh yeah, I've seen my daddy pray.
There's something wrong with little sister, I hear her cryin' by my side
Mama's shaking as she holds her; we try to hold her through the night
And mom says close you eyes mijito, dream of someplace far from here
Like the pictures in your schoolbooks, someday you can take us there
There must be something in the rain
I'm not sure what that means
Abuelita talks of sins of man, of dust that's in our hands
There must be something in the rain
well what else could cause this pain
Those airplanes cure the plants so things can grow
Oh no, it must be something in the rain
Little sister's gone away. Mama's workin' long again
And me I think I understand about our life about our land
Well, talkers talk and dreamers dream; I will find a place between
I'm afraid but I believe that we can change these hurting fields
Cause there's something in the rain but there's more here in our hands
'Buelita's right about the sins of man who's profits rape the land
And the rains are pouring down from the growers to the towns
And until we break the killing chains
There's something in the rain



In The Night

Runnin', burning'
And the lonesome whistle blows
In the night, In the night
There's a border moon a risin'
I can hear that white freight line
Lyin', cryin'
Like and earth bound eagle yearnin'
In the night, In the night
Wanna leave the tears that bind me
On a rusty rail road sign
Chorus:
I've been hearing stories
I've been sittin' scared
By the mood above denying
I could ever dare
Board a broken angel
On a one way track
Faster than the devil trailin'
Trying to take me back
Take it, make it
All along a freedom flight
In the Night, In the Night
No more lyin' dreamin' cryin' wishin'
I had wings to fly

CHARLIE ZAHM: Americana, 2002



Charlie Zahm: "Medley: Rebel Soldier / Dixie Land"
Música celta y americana antigua.
Barítono.


Guitarras:
Charlie's favorite guitars are his Martin D-45, his Larrivée J-10, his Taylor 955 jumbo 12-string and his Taylor W-15. He uses nearly all in concerts, all are "road guitars." Charlie also uses his Taylor 955 12-string whenever he needs the gorgeous rich tone, and it's more playable than any other 12-string Charlie has tried.

Charlie Zahm is one of the most popular soloists at Celtic music festivals, Maritime and Early American music events anywhere east of the Mississippi. With a baritone voice some have described as "coming along once in a generation," Charlie has become one of the most successful performers on the Celtic festival circuit, weaving magical moments of Scottish and Irish history for the listener and viewer, with passion for the performance and a chosen repertoire pleasing to all members of the family. A master of the guitar as well, Charlie brings an authentic love and respect for the music he sings—and with dashes of humor and a light in his eyes, he will draw you into the stories of his songs!





LORENA

Writers Rev. Henry DeLafayette Webster & Joseph Philbrick Webster (no
relation to each other) written in 1857

Key F

(F) THE YEARS CREEP SLOWLY (F7) BY, LO - (Bb) RE - NA,

THE (C7) SNOW IS ON THE GRASS A - (F) GAIN;

THE SUN'S LOW DOWN THE (F7) SKY, LO - (Bb) RE - NA,

THE (C7) FROST GLEAMS WHERE THE FLOWERS HAVE (F) BEEN.

BUT MY (Dm) HEART BEATS ON AS WARMLY (Am) NOW,

AS (A7) WHEN THE SUMMER DAYS WERE (Dm) NIGH; (C7)

THE (F) SUN CAN NEVER (F7) DIP SO (Bb) LOW,

OR (C7) DOWN AFFECTIONS CLOUDLESS (F) SKY.



A HUNDRED MONTHS HAVE PASSED, LORENA,
SINCE LAST I HELD THAT HAND IN MINE,
AND FELT THE PULSE BEAT FAST, LORENA,
THOUGH MINE BEAT FASTER FAR THAN THINE.
A HUNDRED MONTHS, 'TWAS FLOWERY MAY,
WHEN UP THE HILLY SLOPE WE CLIMBED,
TO WATCH THE DYING OF THE DAY,
AND HEAR THE DISTANT CHURCH BELLS CHIME.


WE LOVED EACH OTHER THEN, LORENA,
MORE THAN WE EVER DARED TO TELL;
AND WHAT WE MIGHT HAVE BEEN, LORENA,
HAD BUT OUR LOVINGS PROSPERED WELL.
BUT THEN, 'TIS PAST, THE YEARS ARE GONE,
I'LL NOT CALL UP THEIR SHADOWY FORMS;
I'LL SAY TO THEM, "LOST YEARS, SLEEP ON!
SLEEP ON! NOR HEED LIFE'S PELTING STORMS."



THE STORY OF THAT PAST, LORENA,
ALAS! I CARE NOT TO REPEAT,
THE HOPES THAT COULD NOT LAST, LORENA,
THEY LIVED, BUT ONLY LIVED TO CHEAT.
I WOULD NOT CAUSE E'EN ONE REGRET
TO RANKLE IN YOUR BOSOM NOW;
FOR "IF WE TRY, WE MAY FORGET,"
WERE WORDS OF THINE LONG YEARS AGO.


YES, THESE WERE WORDS OF THINE, LORENA,
THEY BURN WITHIN MY MEMORY YET;
THEY TOUCHED SOME TENDER CHORDS, LORENA,
WHICH THRILL AND TREMBLE WITH REGRET.
'TWAS NOT THY WOMAN'S HEART THAT SPOKE;
THY HEART WAS ALWAYS TRUE TO ME:
A DUTY, STERN AND PRESSING, BROKE
THE TIE WHICH LINKED MY SOUL WITH THEE.


IT MATTERS LITTLE NOW, LORENA,
THE PAST IS IN THE ETERNAL PAST;
OUR HEADS WILL SOON LIE LOW, LORENA,
LIFE'S TIDE IS EBBING OUT SO FAST.
THERE IS A FUTURE! O, THANK GOD!
OF LIFE THIS IS SO SMALL A PART!
'TIS DUST TO DUST BENEATH THE SOD;
BUT THERE, UP THERE, 'TIS HEART TO HEART.



Words by Rev. Henry DeLafayette Webster, music by Joseph Philbrick Webster
(no relation to each other). Written in 1857
This is a pre civil war song which achieved wide popularity during the
conflict. For some reason, the song became a particular favorite of the
Confederancy and, in time, came to be identified with the Southern cause.
Hundreds of Southern girls were named for the song's heroine, while several
pioneer settlements and even a steamship proudly bore the name. One
Confederate veteran claimed to have "heard it more during the war than any
other song."

J.P. Webster, creator of the melody, was a collaborator of S. Fillmore
Bennett, with whom he wrote several Civil War songs, including "The Irish
Volunteer" and "The Negro Emancipation Song." Their best-known work,
however, was one of the most popular hymns of all time, "Sweet By and By,"
1868.

J.P. Webster also wrote, "I'll Twine 'Mid the Ringlets" 1860, which became,
"Wildwood Flower."




The Rebel Soldier (Southern Appalachian folk song)
by Anonymous

Oh, Polly! Oh, Polly! It's for your sake alone,
I left my dear old father, my country and my home,
I left my dear old mother to weep and to mourn -
I am a Rebel Soldier and far from my home!

It's grape-shot and muskets and the cannon lumber loud,
There's many a mangled body, with dew for it's shroud,
There's many a mangled body left on the field's alone -
I am a Rebel Soldier and far from my home!

You'll drink your fine brandy, and I will drink my wine,
You can drink to your true love, and I will drink to mine,
You can drink to your true love and I'll lament and mourn -
I am a Rebel Soldier and far from my home!

I'll eat when I'm hungry, I'll drink when I'm dry,
If the Yankees don't kill me, I'll live until I die,
If the Yankees don't kill me and cause me to mourn -
I am a Rebel Soldier and far from my home!

I'll build me a castle on some green mountain high,
So, I can see Polly as she comes passing by,
So, I can see Polly and help her to mourn -
I am a Rebel Soldier and far from my home!
I am a Rebel Soldier and far from my home!

No Love Is Sorrow
(Jansch, Renbourn, Thompson, Cox, McShee) – 2:41


just like the songbird
deep in the forest
i sing praises
but you never hear

deep in my body
my song is silent
yet content at
times when you're near

please listen to me
and i will tell thee
all those words that
have never been said

they shout inside of me
but then the coward
behind a weak man
starts ruling my head

i never a loved thee
and not one other
will know sweetness
that lies in my breast

'tis you that made me
but have abided me
to uncover my
heart to the stars

no love is sorrow
but now i'm happy
to have thee in
this world for my love

and now you must know
my soul is for thee
that's why this life
is my sorry love

Gibson SJ-200
6.330 dólares

The SJ-200 True Vintage acoustic guitar delivers the look, feel, and sound of Gibson’s original Super Jumbo as it first appeared in 1937. Gibson Acoustic’s master luthiers in Bozeman, Montana have recreated a legend. The SJ-200 was originally built to cut through the loudest acoustic ensembles, but ended up defining the new American music scene of the 1930s on its way to becoming the world’s most famous acoustic guitar. The SJ-200 True Vintage captures the deep, well-balanced tone and powerful sound of these celebrated guitars, and are almost identical in makeup and structure as the most popular 1950’s versions including an Adirondack red spruce top and VOS finish.




Gibson GB-1
Rare model and an incredible piece of American history. This is the banjo that was recorded and played by the Reverend Gary Davis. This is a non Mastertone banjo with thick, 11 inch rim and simple tonering. It has all the appropriate documentation. The original flange was broken and a replacement makes it playable once again.



Gibson B45-12


Gibson B-45-12 ( 1961-1979 )

The Gisbon b-45-12 was also in production during these years ( 1961-79 ) it was a 12 string acoustic guitar , flat top , mahogony wood . The 61-62 models had round shoulders and from late 62 and on gibson made them with square shoulders , and were made in sunburst colors .

In 1963 Gibson also introduced the B-45-12-N ( same guitars but in natural finish ) production ended in 1979 . Vintage Price values are more or less the same as the Gibson b-45-12 ( sunburst )


Gibson B-45-12 Limited Edition Reissue ( 1991 -1992 )

Because of the high demand gibson in 1991 made a limited edition reissue of the b-45-12 ,same guitar but was built with rosewood wood on the back and sides of the body .

Because of the limited number of gibson b-45 reissues produced , they are also considered somewhat collectible .

Vintage Guitar Price Value 2008 :
1967 - 1971 > $500 to $700 ( b-15 )
1962 - 1969 > $1000 to $1600 ( b-25 )

Luthiers: COLLINGS D1

Collins D1
Acústica de sonido limpio y brillante.
Celta, folk, country, bluegrass




Bill Collings moved from Ohio to Texas in the mid 1970’s. Spurred by a lack of interest in medical school, this move enabled him to combine lifelong interests in both guitars and tools into the challenge of stringed instrument building and repair. After a couple of years in Houston, several guitars and a few banjos later, he headed west to southern California. Making it only as far as Austin, he shared shops with fellow luthiers Tom Ellis and Mike Stevens. From there, he set up his own small shop in a wooden "one car" garage. His reputation for outstanding quality and meticulous attention to detail quickly spread. In 1989, he rented a 1000 square foot space and hired two helper.




Dimensions

Body Length: 20"
Body Depth: 4 7/8"
Lower Bout Width: 15 5/8"
Total Length: 40 1/4"
Scale Length: 25 1/2"
Standard Nut Width: 1 11/16"
Strings

Factory Strings: D'Addario EJ-17 (.013"-.056")
Recommended Gauges:



he square-shouldered 14-fret dreadnought is the most popular steel-string acoustic guitar body shape in the world. While Collings is certainly not the first to build them, we bring a new tonal clarity to the depth and warmth usually associated with such a large, deep-bodied guitar. Although its bass response makes the dreadnought ideal for vocal accompaniment, Collings versions are also often employed by bluegrass flatpickers who must compete with inherently louder instruments such as banjos and fiddles. The wide range of woods and neck sizes offered allow dreadnought fans to find a Collings model ideally suited to their playing style and tonal preference.
