Frank Fairfield "Keep My Skillet Greasy"

[@shiftyshellshockster]

This cat is a time traveller. Man, I can't get enough of this. Brilliant!

[@FolkArtistry]

Spot on. He lives in Los Angeles, so I had the opportunity to see him several times live… even get to know him a little bit since I photographed him a few times. Dude is definitely not of this world.

[@OscarCommie]

When Frank Fairfield gets the spirt up there is no one who can touch him!

[@TL_coyote]

This is the 28th time I've watched this and it just gets better and better, dang.

[@Kylerjguitar]

Out of this world! Frank fan for life!

[@randomstuffidc]

[@RhinestoneDjango]

I just watched this 8 times in a row.

[@dac186]

How'd I miss this one? Stumbled across his album used about 6 months ago and looked at everything I could find...and this wasn't one of them, but it's a year-old vid. Fantastic all around!!

[@westonniedermier9186]

[@marksfu]

Straight frailing I believe, not clawhammer. Simply delightful, and shows what one can accomplish by devoting your youth to pleasure. :)

[@ZachVance108]

marksfu can ya explain this diffrence in frailing and clawhammer ?

[@JorisKoolen]

He's double thumbing and drop thumbing so I'm not sure what you mean?

Savage.

[@123jlp]

"there it is!"

[@thecommongoodtube]

Can someone transcribe that first verse? It’s different from the other versions. I can’t figure out what he’s saying!

[@giveththeloot1517]

My skillet will never want for grease again.

[@rainierrowse1742]

I think this is the definitive version, and uncle dave macon, dow watson, clarence ashley , are all smiling down.

[@5kehhn]

Yee Haw!

[@thecommongoodtube]

You’re doing the Lord’s work, brother.

[@mollypop7081]

is this forreal?

[@chopzor]

2:47 "women will weep, children will bawl when I love that browneye best of all" did he seriously refer to anal rape?? THAT sure as heck isn't in any version of this song I've heard before.

[@mcesarey]

chopzor I really don't think so....I couldn't tell the exact lyric, but I don't think he was going where you think he was going.

[@imkwyl_jr]

Lol man

[@amosrosen4200]

+chopzor i think that is exactly what he meant.

[@OscarCommie]

+chopzor Brown eye women man! Like a women with brown eyes. Jeez.

[@5kehhn]

I've done some searching around a while back and their wasn't any definite lyrics to begin with. I seem to remember Dave Macon(?) using different lyrics on 2 separate occasions. I never could find any standard original lyrics to this song.
