Poke salad Annie
The gader's got ya granny
Everybody says it was a shame
'Cause her mother was a-workin' on a chain gang
-- a mean, spiteful woman!
mmmmm, mmmmm!

The sons of the south know how to rock 'n roll!
Tony Joe, Lynnyrd Skynnard, the Allman Brothers, and don't forget Charlie 
D -- they'll show y'all how it's done, son!!!! And don't forget the unsung 
hero behind the scenes, John D Laudermilk.

Years ago there was a restaurant in Lawrence Kansas called Tin Pan Alley. 
The male half of the couple who co-owned the restaurant created a very 
scrumpptious taco salad in the ginormous tortilla bowl. He called it "Poke 
Salad Alley." I wonder how ole Tony Joe would have liked it. Probably better 
than poke salad -- ya think?

I know this is more than a little off topic but I had to "get my licks" in 
about the good ole days of music and tell that fun story about the little 
neighborhood cafe I miss to this day.
Anyway, Thanks, Jim for those links. I'm sure they will give me a great 
listen.
best regards
Rob Tabor
