      Thank you for sharing that story, Chris. :-) Sometimes I have wondered what will be the last song that I sing, play, or hear. We never know. Red River Valley isn't a bad way to go. As I replied to Ruth above (whose father also played RRV on harmonica), this song is well-suited to harmonica and would be beautiful played on that instrument.

    I also have a memory of something our elementary teacher did, just out of the blue. Sweet, after all these years, how that memory was allowed to remain for recall like today. Red River Valley is a song I remember singing as a lil kid too. Very nice. So thank you, twice! 😊😊

    WOW! Made my eyes leak! Thank you for sharing this beautiful song! My brother and I had a babysitter who taught him, the more musical of the two of us to play this on her guitar. We would sing it together with her soulful voice, she said we were singing 3-part harmony, but I was aware that one of the parts had no clue, nor the ear to be a part of any harmony but she loved me and never pointed it out. BTW, speaking of your crush, my brother had a big crush on that babysitter, but she loved him too and made him feel so special. Thank you for reviving this memory.

    I love this song. You sang and played it wonderfully! I remember my third-grade music teacher playing a green spinet piano, and the only songs I remember singing from the hardcover songbook were Red River Valley and Oh Shenandoah! I always enjoyed listening to Guy and Ralna on Lawrence Welk. I thought they sang beautifully together. I've had the pleasure of seeing and talking with Riders in the Sky half a dozen times over the years. They are genuine folk and great musicians/singers. Thank you, Paul! God bless you all!

    Red River Valley is one the first songs I learned in grade school, too, Paul. At that time the students were led to believe it was named for the Red River in Texas. Later I was told it was named for the Red River of the North that flows from South Dakota and Minnesota into Manitoba, Canada. Your story shed a great deal of new (to me) light upon the history and origins of the old love song. Thanks for that, and for your great treatment of the song. 👍👍👍👍

    Hey there Paul! Love this song. I remember singing it in elementary school, along with, "This Land is My Land". Do you remember that one? On a side note I went to a country school without a music teacher. We did have a music teacher that came from the town schools from time to time. I remember her pushing a big old piano down the hallway room to room. This was in the day when we had those connecting room dividers that unfolded. I was always excited when she came, even though I've never had a good singing voice. Thanks for sharing.

      That's awesome! My school years started in the early 60s in rural Indiana. We always had music at least once a week. We learned notes and symbols. I remember my first music teacher Mrs. Davenport. She used the music from Peter and the wolf to describe different instruments in an orchestra. That was in second grade. My dad was a country boy who loved westerns. He was a good man and father. ​@@BlindPigAndTheAcorn

    Dear Paul,
    First and foremost you played and sang this precious song so sweet and tenderly.💕
    I had to laugh when you said you didn’t sing in school much. Since I went through a Christian school, we sang all the time you certainly would not have missed any singing or guitar playing at my grade school. On Fridays, the whole school got together and we would go to church for the afternoon and we would have singing lessons to learn to perfectly sing the current songs that we were currently singing in church.💒
    I love this song…so very sentimental. Thank you most sweetly for your rendition of this song.♥️🌟💚Esme’

    Loved it, and you nailed it. I could just close my eyes and listen to you sing this over and over. It's a sad song, but the melody is just so captivating to me. You did great on that flat top it worked really well with this song. I haven't gone to those links yet, but I will sometime today. That microphone 🎤 setup you were using is fantastic. I thought your voice came through perfectly. What type of set-up is it?
    I really love this "Old Timey Series" on Tuesday along with Thursday's " That's original series.
    Thank you for the time you spent researching these songs to give us some insight into the song you're playing. I have heard this song all my life, and like you, it's always been a favorite of mine.

      @BlindPigAndTheAcorn  2 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Thanks, Debbie! So glad you liked it. I planned to use the Shub Capo that Doyle sent, and then I couldn't find it! I think I must have left it in one of my guitar cases. Hopefully, I'll use it soon. The Microphone set-up is just a paired set of Rode guitar mics. They came with the little bar that's holding them. "Paired" means that they are supposed to be identical in every way. The idea of using them one one stand this way is to mimic the "stereo" sound of our ears, capturing sound from two directions at once. However, they are guitar mics, not vocal mics, and it's a little difficult to get them close enough to me. What I would love is to be able to use both the audio from them and the audio from the camera at the same time, but when I try that, it the video has an echo.
