If they ask you who I am don’t you tell em nothing
Charlie Parr - Roustabout
In the 2020s I developed a massive guitar crush on Charlie Parr. Man, that Piedmont-style picking was just what I was into at the time. I bought the whole back catalogue.
Went to see him a couple of times, at the Grace Emily and The Gov. He was an unassuming but extremely charismatic live performer.
Then I kind of forgot about him.
It was quite the joy re-playing this CD today. Midnight Has Come and Gone is one hell of a tune.
