"Dooley"

 “The Andy Griffith Show” was always at its best when the music-loving Darling family rolled into town. Now, The Darlings were played for the real-life Ozark band, The Dillards. Here from last week’s rehearsal is Randy Hamilton leading us on our take of the Dillards’ greatest tune. 

"I Never Cried"

We first recorded this tune nearly a quarter of a century ago, a good old blues written in the 1930s by a Kentuckian named Teddy Darby.

"Spooky"

 Here’s a song that was born at jam sessions, with an infectious rhythm and a couple of funky chords that invite all kinds of improvisation. “Spooky” is the latest tune that Randy Hamilton and Danny Cox have brought to our band room, complete with those Classics IV lyrics.

"Eight More Miles to Louisville"

Sometimes the only thing that will fit bill is a song from your youth. Here’s a tune we all heard growing up — Grandpa Jones’s theme song,

"Lady Be Good"

 George Gershwin’s “Lady Be Good” has been in The Flood repertoire for nearly a quarter century, aut lately it’s taken on a new life ever since Danny Cox brought around a better bunch of chords. Listen to Dan and the guys just rocking the socks off the thing!

"Darcy Farrow"

 This old tune from the mid-1960s hadn’t been played in The Flood band room in more than a decade or so, but when it dropped in at last week’s rehearsal, it fit the moment as comfortably as a good old shoe.
 

"Dink's Song"

 You know when you’re driving in your car and surfing the stations on your radio, each one offering something bright and different. That always reminds me of a Flood rehearsal, as the band drifts from some old ’50s rock tune to a blues to a Dylan song to maybe…. well, listen here as Randy Hamilton reinvents this century-long tune, turning it into something as fresh and sweet as a summer breeze.
