Olabelle

I listen to Imus in the Morning most mornings while getting ready for work.  I like the chatter between Imus and all his crew.  You don't really have to watch, you can just listen. They're funny.  Of course don't use me as a guage because I also listen to Opie and Anthony in my truck on the way into Shreveport.  They're filthy and hilarious.


Back to Imus.  He has guest singers sometimes and he has good taste usually.  Of course he started as a disc jockey a hundred years ago so he knows everyone in the business.  He has Levon Helm on alot.  Mr. Helm was a vocalist for The Band back when I was a teenager in the 60's/early 70's.  They sang Up On Cripple Creed and The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down, to name a couple of their songs.

Cut to the chase...Levon Helm's daughter was on this morning with her band and they are so good.  I went and downloaded a couple of their songs.  You have to hear their rendition of Down By The Riverside. She is second from the right.  They are super and I don't listen to "come to Jesus" bands ever. It is fantastic....take a listen.  Click on the arrow.
