Episode 17 - Happy Birthday Floyd Lanning! / Special Guest Denver Dalley

This is a HUGE episode!

Not only is it in celebration of my grandfather, Floyd Lanning's birthday, we have another special celebrity guest!

I was lucky enough this episode to catch a fantastic interview with Denver Dalley of The Desaparecidos, fronted by Conor Oberst also of the band, Bright Eyes.

 

He was awesome enough to call me on his only day off tour and chat about what he's been up to since the Desaparecidos had to cancel their own tour, knowing Conor from when they were teens, and his major contribution and composition in the band.

I cover:

"Buy a Little Time With Her" - Floyd Lanning (off his album Pretty Boy Floyd)

"Man and Wife, the Former (Financial Planning)" - Desaparecidos

"Gossimer Thin" - Conor Oberst (off his new album Ruminations)

My mom covers:

"Tips of my Fingers" - Eddy Arnold

My grandmother Bessie covers:

"Beginning of Goodbye" - Floyd Lanning (also off his album Pretty Boy Floyd)

And the show ends with my grandfather's version of "Tips of My Fingers" solo on acoustic guitar.

The birthday cake my mom made for one of my grandfather's birthdays

 

One of my favorite photos of him. He was an avid bodybuilder.
