"Gee, Baby, Ain't I Good to You?"

 Joining The Flood repertoire, some songs fit in right away, while others — like this 90-year-old Don Redmond classic — take a little time to settle in, but when they do, wow — they’re as comfortable as an old shoe.

"Can You Run?"

 Our latest iteration of this song has been eight years in the making. Randy Hamilton brought it to us in the spring of 2017 and had already worked out the basic arrangement in his head, but it took a while to get the instrumentation right. For instance, Jack Nuckols, whose drumming is so fundamental this track, didn’t arrive until a couple of years ago, about the same time that Charlie Bowen began learning a bit of banjo. Now Jack’s snare drum and Charlie's five-string could provide a little counterbalance to the sweet solos by Danny Cox and Sam St. Clair.

"Georgie Buck"

 A lot of ghosts stalk our rehearsal room nowadays, but to a man they are a happy bunch of haunts. And we have table set aside for photos of all of our old band mates who have passed on. But more than mere pictures, it’s their music that keeps our old comrades alive. Here’s one of the late Dave Peyton’s favorite tunes that’s never left us since he first brought to this very room 20 years ago.

"Georgia on My Mind"

 Danny Cox and Randy Hamilton do some serious gold mining in this old sweet song. This track opens with Charlie Bowen and Jack Nuckols laying down the basic melody and rhythm, and then just listen to Danny start spending out all the riches he’s found in those lovely old chords.

"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.
