from Oannes *

Ανάμεσα στα άλλα, ο Δεκέμβριος αναδεικνύεται σε μήνα των μεγάλων Νοτίων. Μετά τους Lynyrd Skynyrd [Gary Rossington] και τους ZZ Top [Billy Gibbons] ακούμε ένα classic από το άλμπουμ – ντεμπούτο των Allman Brothers. Τραγούδι του θρυλικού οργανίστα & τραγουδιστή τους, Gregg Allman [R.I.P.], γεννημένου αυτό το μήνα πριν από 76 χρόνια.

Among other things, December emerges as the month of great Southerners. After Lynyrd Skynyrd [Gary Rossington] and ZZ Top [Billy Gibbons] we hear a classic from Allman Brothers’ debut album. A song by their legendary organist & singer, Gregg Allman [R.I.P.], born this month 76 years ago.

❝ Just one more mornin’
I had to wake up with the blues
Pulled myself outta bed, yeah
Put on my walkin’ shoes
Went up on the mountain
To see what I could see
The whole world was fallin’
Right down in front of me
‘Cause I’m hung up on dreams
I’ll never see, yeah, baby
Ah, help me, baby
Or this will surely be the end of me, yeah
Pull myself together
Put on a new face
Climb down off the hilltop, baby
Get back in the race
‘Cause I’m hung up on dreams
I’ll never see, yeah, baby, yeah
Ah, help me, baby
Or this will surely be the end of me, yeah
Pull myself together
Put on a new face
Climb down off the hilltop, baby
Get back in the race
‘Cause I’m hung up on dreams
I’ll never see, yeah, baby, oh
Ah, help me, baby
Or this will surely be the end of me, yeah ❞

* For my friends who didn’t know, or first timers here, Oannes [aka Socratis Papahatzis] is my husband, partner in life and music and the one with my undying admiration. Together we have a band MK-O [the music of Marina Kanavaki & Oannes]. So, it’s my pleasure to share with you his [and sometimes mine] musical selections. • Do visit his site. He has my highest recommendation!
