Well, belated Happy 2014 for anybody on the receiving end. If you're somehow feeling bereft of the warm fuzzies of Christmastime, do check out the last post for this year's holiday tunes. Or just beat back the dark and snow and/ or deep freeze and/ or weird super-thaw with some other nwoody classics...
Also, briefly and clerically:
1. The SoundCloud page remains an OK option for streaming pleasure: https://soundcloud.com/johnk-rkbs/

Anyhoo....
First off, "Traverse City Blues" is not a blues at all. More of a Neil Young lift that dates back to the Baltimore days. It was a rocked-up electric favorite of the Honcho band, and has been a go-to hootenanny-type acoustic picker as well in the years since. What you have here is a stab at the latter.
Second off, the titular "Old Grey Dog" is not a dog at all, but a Greyhound bus. The song is your basic escapist tribute to Chicago, and to following the Heileman's Old Style Beer signs from bar to bar down the long, straight avenues.
