PHOEBE LEGERE at NERFA with DAVID AMRAM November 12

PULL MY DAISY 
Says Phoebe Legere:David Amram and I will be performing this song at #NERFA the Northeast Folk Conference Stanford, Conn. Nov 12. 

I'll do the wide ranging melody as written by Amram in '59 and sung breathtakingly by Anita Ellis in the movie starring Larry Rivers - Allen Ginsberg - The words are by David's pal Jack Kerouac. Many FB and real friends are mentioned in this Youtube video. 


More importantly, for those saddened by the recent downgrade of the value of art and music, David's words and the example of his life are good medicine. PULL MY DAISY Music David Amram, lyrics Jack Kerouac, Allen Ginsberg and Neal Cassady


THIS WAS PERFORMED THE SPRING OF 2015 IN BOULDER COLORADO ON A RADIO SERIES “E-TOWN” WITH STEVE EARLE.
