The other day I posted various versions of Big Rock Candy Mountain. In putting that together, I stumbled into Baby Gramps. I’m not sure if it’s the way he attacks a song or his unique guitar work or the way he slides into throat singing or what it is, but this character is a really compelling performer. Here he is on Letterman with the Akron Family performing Cape Cod Girls.
Entirely unique character! I loved the throat singing; the most unusual use of that method I have ever seen!
