Last week we had the “tagged Q”-challenge, so this week we’ll create a new turn with “R” – I’m sure you’ll also find a photo, a story or a music title tagged with “R”! Feel free to add in the comments below the link to your personal interpretation of the letter “R”!!! Myself I’ll focus on the “riverside”:
RIVERSIDE
let me play for you “DOWN BY THE RIVERSIDE” – jmrukkers kindly added the vocals to my guitar:

This is nothing to do with ‘R’ Frizz, except my next door neighbour’s name is Roger, and I see you liked his homemade banjo @ Maverick09. He’s struggling a bit with his blog, but makes the most fantastic instruments. It was lovely to find you there. Also a bit weird, in a wheels within wheels way.

hi Colline,
thanks for your interesting words about the political background, new for me!
“There was one song, however, that was not played over the airwaves in South Africa because of its lyrical content: Give me hope Joanna. The song refers to the Apartheid regime that was in place at that time in South Africa (Joanna being a reference to Johannesburg).”

R is for re-purposing. Take something from the rubbish pile and give it another lease of life. Save one empty jar from the recycle bin , wash it and place it with your glass tumblers. Drink from it with pride at your next dinner party. Make a stand. Revolt.

I like your self built cigar box guitar = it’s a kind of revolt for sure – to feel a little bit independent from the music industry…
