Lowell filson lyrics to songs
•
From James Russell Lowells poem:
I heard the bells on Christmas day
Their old familiar carols play
And mild and sweet their songs repeat
Of peace on Earth, good will to men. . .

(Peace on Earth)
(Peace on Earth)
The wrong shall fail, the right prevail

Somebody Loan Me A Dime [Vinyl LP]
When Boz Scaggs recorded (and claimed he wrote) Somebody Loan Me A Dime in , few rock fans had ever heard of the song or its true composer, Fenton Robinson. Now Scaggs' pop version, featuring Duane Allman on gitarr, ranks as a classic of modern blues rock music, yet Fenton Robinson remains unrecognized in the rock world. Still, to the black blues fans of Chicago and the Deep South, and to the dedicated white blues addicts, he is known as one of the finest, most creative artists in modern blues -- an unusually gifted and introspective man whose progressive musical ideas and kontinuerlig reshapings of the blues form set him apart from his contemporaries.
Fenton originally recorded Somebody Loan Me A Dime for a small Chicago label in Just as the record was breaking, a severe snowstorm sabotaged the company's national transport lines. Yet it was still a local smash, the biggest hit Fenton or Palos Records ever had. Fenton's strong, sensitive perf
