Brother Can You Spare a Dime – Dr. John & Odetta

Posted by admin | Under Dr. John Friday Sep 11, 2009

This oldie was originally written during the depression (1931) by Yip Harburg, who was later blacklisted during the McCathy era.

Dr. John and Odetta don’t actually appear in this video, but the music is excellent…music that touches you.

I not overly fond of some of the visuals used in the video. To me Blues is about overcoming, not about defeat. Show me someone that’s willing to stand up after being knocked down. Leave the bullshit politics out of it.

We’re all in this together.
