  Denver, Boise & Johnson
Posted by: Cindy M - 05-12-2022, 01:13 PM - Forum: mjblue.com Updates - Replies (2)

Denver, Boise & Johnson material has been added to the Extras section:

https://mjblue.com/mjdbj.html

There are links to the full concerts (and an after concert party) on YouTube along with John's notes on almost every song and the three video songs.

I've taken the DB&J notes from John Marlowe's site at The Cincinnati Dancing Pigs and edited them with his consent. Both of us are still making minor changes. If you want to see notes and music about John Denver, visit his site.

Michael Johnson with Mark Henley - Charlotte's Web, Rockford IL
September 1, 1977, 2nd Set only
Courtesy of Michael Johnson
Songs: The Number and the Name (Steve Gillette), Got You Covered (Biff Rose, Michael Johnson), Weeping Annaleah (Mickey Newberry), One Note Samba (Antonio Carlos Jobim), Circle of Fifths (Raun MacKinnon), Damn It All (Movin' in the Same Circles) (Ron Galbraith), Good to Be With You (Eric Andersen), If Wishes Were Horses (Mike Settle), Pet Store Bird (Mac McAnally), Froggin' (Mark Henley, Michael Johnson), Sermonette (Jon Hendricks), Two In Love (Mark Henley), Lavender Lady (Ted Sherman), The Sunset Years (Mark Henley), Troubled For You (Ted Sherman), Wilson Girl (Michael Johnson, Mark Henley, Ted Sherman), Do It (Jesse Winchester), What's Time to a Hog (Dean Webb, Mitchell F. Jayne)

“Do It” is a personal favorite. An impromptu request, he forgot one line. Official lyrics:
If the wheel is fixed
I would still take a chance
If we're treading on thin ice
Then we might as well dance
So I play the fool
But I can't sit still
Help me get this rock
To the top of this hill

Do it
'Til we're sick of it
Do it 'till you can't do it no more

Friends will pity you
I guess that's what they're for
But they just take you like they find you
When they find you on the floor

But you do it
Til you’re sick of it
Do it til you can't do it no more


MJ and I shared a personal memory after he gave me this tape and we listened to “Do It” as we had a floor incident in our not so recent past. 

Thanks to John Marlowe for de-hissing the concert.

  Hugh Prestwood
Posted by: drd - 03-13-2022, 04:07 PM - Forum: Michael Discussion - Replies (1)

Here’s a bit of unsettling news. It seems Hugh Prestwood, who wrote a lot of Michael’s great songs, has run into serious financial hardship this year. Due in part to how royalties are now paid to songwriters, his income has drastically been cut.

It seems incomprehensible that such a successful songwriter like Hugh would have to start a GoFundMe page to pay expenses.
 
Quite the injustice for someone who has written many, many hit songs for artists who, like Michael, give people solace, escape, and happiness, holding up a mirror showing us who we are or wish to be.

  MJ's house
Posted by: Cindy M - 03-07-2022, 09:16 AM - Forum: Michael Discussion - Replies (2)

I drive by Michael's old home every time I go to Tonkadale greenhouse. Two weeks ago, I thought I just missed it. Last Thursday, I looked and looked. I think it's been torn down. Many memories.
