Hmmmm... Well, since Megan once told me the definitions on these themes can be very wide, I've decided to consider ripples to fit the wrinkle definition.
However, this close-up of one of my denim shirts definitely fits the traditional wrinkle definition.
For videos this week, I fed "wrinkle" into YouTube's search engine. Heh, heh! Mostly I got videos touting various wrinkle creams and anti-wrinkle treatments, but there was some music in there. Like this tune called "Wrinkles" by a group called Diamond Rio. I'd never heard of them before; they seem like nice enough fellows, putting out fairly mainstream commercial Country & Western. In any case, here's their song "Wrinkles":
I also found a song called "Wrinkle" by a band called Dufus. I'd never head of these guys either. Founder Seth Faergolzia calls his music "anti-folk", whatever that means. Mostly it sounds like goofy acoustic good-time music, so check out "Wrinkle":
And last but not least, a song that's not about wrinkles, but played by a bunch of older guys who have their share of wrinkles. This is the Old and in the Way reunion band from 2002 or so - Peter Rowan, lead vocal & guitar; David Grisman, mandolin & vocals; Vassar Clements, fiddle; Herb Pedersen, banjo & vocals; Bryn Bright, bass. The band had originally gotten together in 1975; the original banjo player was Jerry Garcia and the original bassist was John Kahn. In 2002 they got back together replacing the original members who'd passed away in the meantime; the put out an album called Old and in the Gray and did a tour. This is from the tour, the band performing Peter Rowan's "Land of the Navajo". Enjoy!

I loved the "In the Land of the Navajo" clip. Jerry Garcia once sang with them! Who knew?
ReplyDeleteripples are perfect wrinkles!!
ReplyDeletealmost posted the song 'old man' one of my favorite, but already used ....like you never heard of the first two groups either.
i contemplated posting a self-portrait showing all my wrinkles in their 'glory' but then decided i was too vain....and i probably thought the song was about me, about me.
But the beauty of denim is that its casual by definition... so no need to worry about wrinkles!
ReplyDeleteHey, nice 'Wrinkle' video link - looks very familiar... ;-)
ripples, wrinkles they are all good to me...nice picks and i had seen the first two aready, but that last vid was a treat. thanks roy!
ReplyDeletewrinkly songs...leave it to you, Roy to find them! Nice!
ReplyDeleteOkay, that's just weird. Two TTs post a song about wrinkles by a band named Dufus.
ReplyDeletePhotos are wonderful, particularly the sand and sea. Love it.
The ripple shots are really great--they definitely fit in "wrinkled." I bought the original Old & In The Way" album when it first came out-- don't know if I still have it!
ReplyDeleteLovely photos Roy - brilliant man
ReplyDeleteI prefer to think that those little lines around my eyes are 'ripples' sounds much more fun than wrinkles. Lovely shots as usual and for goodness sakes man, iron your shirt!
ReplyDeleteGreat photos and I loved that Land of the Navajo. it really had my wrinkly feet tapping.
ReplyDeleteI do love a mandolin.
ReplyDeletebeautiful - i nearly went with the wrinkles on water
