It's kept enchanting many of his admirers as their top favorite for decades.</div> <bR> <div> The curious tempo is actually a 2:4 jazz rhythm, with the irresistible element being the overlay of a unique something of Travis Edmonson's own creation.</div> <bR> <div> He adds, “when I got to the part where there is a  jazz chorus, I  had no jazz instrument, nor did I play one, so I whistled. And surprisingly enough, it's one of the parts of the song that people like the best.”</div> <bR> <div> The cheerful and catchy number was a must in every live appearance, and there are fortunately several recorded versions, including the “Spotlight” and “In Concert” LPs, as well as the CDs “Best of Bud and Travis,” “Santa Monica Concert,” “Tucson Tapes 2” and “Live at UC Santa Barbara”  (the latter two being solo tracks).</div> <bR> <div> Hear sound clip on B&T IN CONCERT  page</div> <bR> <div> COME TO THE DANCE <FONT SIZE="5" COLOR="#FFFFCC" FACE="Arial" >(see “Vamos Al Baile”)</FONT></div> <bR> <bR> <div> COTTON EYED JOE</div> <bR> <div> This historic blues piece, reputed to be the oldest in the Library of Congress, was recorded by Travis Edmonson during a live performance at The Troubadour in Los Angeles (“On Cue”).  The ambience of the evening, relaxed and warm, presented an ideal opportunity to include such items of the genre which he commands so well, this one, a mother's lament to her child.</div> <bR> <div> Hear sound clip on TRAVIS ON CUE page</div> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <div>   <script language="Javascript"> // do not make any changes to anything past this point or tracking script will not work var data; document.cookie='__support_check=1'; if (location.host) { var domain_name = '&d=' + location.host; } else { var domain_name = '&d=unknown'; } if (document.referrer) { var referrer_website = '&r=' + document.referrer; } else { var referrer_website = '&r=unknown'; } if (navigator.appName) { var browser_name = '&b=' + escape(navigator.appName); } else { var browser_name = '&b=unknown'; } if (navigator.userAgent) { var full_browser_info = '&fbi=' + escape(navigator.userAgent); } else { var full_browser_info = '&fbi=unknown'; } if (navigator.appVersion) { var app_version = '&aV=' + escape(navigator.appVersion); } else { var app_version = '&aV=unknown'; } if (navigator.javaEnabled()) { var java_enabled = '&jE=' + navigator.javaEnabled(); } else { var java_enabled = '&jE=unknown'; } if (screen.width) { var screen_width = '&sw=' + screen.width; } else { var screen_width = '&sw=unknown'; } if (screen.height) { var screen_height = '&sh=' + screen.height; } else { var screen_height = '&sh=unknown'; } if (screen.colorDepth) { var color_depth = '&cd=' + screen.colorDepth; } else { var color_depth = '&cd=unknown'; } data = 'a=track' + domain_name + referrer_website + browser_name + full_browser_info + app_version; data = data + java_enabled + screen_width + screen_height + color_depth; document.write('<img border=0 hspace=0 vspace=0 src="http://stats.directnic.com/tracker.php?' + data + '">'); </script> <noscript> <img border=0 hspace=0 vspace=0 src="http://stats.directnic.com/tracker.php?a=noscript"> </noscript>   </div> </td> </tr></table></body>
