It's Music Monday!

When Woody Guthrie died in 1967, he left behind over a thousand complete sets of lyrics with no musical acompaniment. In the 90's, Billy Bragg and Wilco teamed up to write and record the music for some of these songs. They were released on the 1998 album "Mermaid Avenue". This is one of my favorite albums, and I strongly recommend buying the whole thing.
I hope you enjoy my cover. I know the recording quality is not great and I'll be working on that for next week.

Sounded great man. I LITERALLY laughed out loud for 7.9 seconds at the cat thing.

[@testing4echo]

I loved your performance and the song Joe. Can't wait til next Monday now

[@ShayLoss]

Dude Shay I freakin love your videos! You are better than everyone at everything!

[@1234aabc]

That was lovely! More Music Monday :) That was much better than anything I've every played...

[@treetopteresa]

thank you; it has been a long time since Ive heard anything from Woody Guthrie.

[@pjgiven2fly]

Well, this was a great surprise, man. And I very glad that you're back to KZbin in full force.

[@clankdud]

Wow. Sounded good on my old headset just got new one and can ear everything lol. Great job.

[@Nat34what]

Great Work Joe, I'm Really loving the channel!

[@eggplantland]

Joe, This is my favorite album,you sound like you have Irish roots. Dig this

[@Gorvena]

Wonderful, really enjoyed this. I think you are a fantastic guy.

[@christabella81]

oh my.. *wipes tears of laughter* poor kitty!!!

[@TheseApples]

Wow Joe, quite amazing!

[@Kronoen]

Very good sir, very nice guitar skills... much better than me thats a given. and nice singing!

[@Donyvi]

To be honest, you left me quite the music skeptic after the soda song back in the days, but this was a complete breath of fresh air, as Simon Cowell once put it :)

[@TaffyRaphie]

music monday is a great idea!

[@sisforshayla]

i liked it. and also the very end with your cat running away, reminds me of how my husband would like to embarrass our kids when they get older, hah! :)

[@JoeFelice]

I've played for many years, off and on. They are my landlord's records. His cat too.

[@marbballz]

Awesome joe!

[@LiveAndLetDice]

wow, multi talented!

[@Metroid02099]

Joe Felice = Multi-talented. Who knew? : )

[@SquirtAddict]

This isn't the type of music I really like, but you did a good job still. It is a nice change from your typical videos, and I'll still watch them even if I am not a fan of your song choice. haha I do love that you are putting out so many videos again. I missed watching your videos when you took a break.

[@OhioDemocrat]

Good job Joe!

[@JoeFelice]

Thank you for pointing that out! I wasn't keeping track. I associate my anniversary with Thanksgiving because I decided to make my first video when I was alone at home, freezing on Thanksgiving night 2007 after an underwhelming dinner of takeout ravioli in a metal tin.

[@BestBuddy916]

@JoeFelice That would be awesome!! That's a good song too.

[@magicsforce]

ooh snap look at that comeback

[@jamjarface13]

wow, good job jo-jo, you have a really impressive voice. :D

[@MaxBobcat]

JOE! This is your 3rd anniversary from your first video. congrats

[@MaxHimelhoch]

so true...

[@rockinmoe45]

My aunt was named Nora Lee. In my entire life (which is a fairly substantial number of years) I have never heard of anyone else by that name, and certainly never heard a song with her name in it. Hmmm...

[@conroy91]

I love your voice, not what i was expecting, which i love! I think you should try some Simon And Garfunkel or anything off of Paul Simon's Graceland! That would make my year if you could! : D Thanks Joe, once again, I'm overjoyed your back

[@Rewskidoo]

missed you my friend!

[@ivmeer1976]

You are not the only one, Aquadeam.

[@JoeFelice]

I can't. It's like a wall of metal. The Seagull brand, which is a smaller Canadian company, has this beautiful sustain, which you can hear at the end of the song, but I like a wider neck, so that's where the 12-string comes in.

[@JoeFelice]

Thanks Max, I know you've asked a few times. At some point I will talk about my religious point of view in a personal vlog. I haven't really figured out where to fit that in to the schedule, but it'll come.

[@staceyjomama99]

Yea, your right about that one.

[@slapshot1519]

I dig it, keep em comin

[@lizandryan1027]

Like it!

[@froman46992]

damn i didnt see that singing voice coming, your good

[@JoeFelice]

Woodie Guthrie's mother and daughter were both named Nora. I don't know if the Lee means anything in his real life.

[@kabloozie]

look ma, records!

[@losroftheday]

Will you ever string that 12-string guitar with, well, 12 strings? Or shall we always hear a plain six-string sound? On Mondays... For a while.

[@mady1044]

nice one

[@BestBuddy916]

Is it weird that I think Joe and nicepeter should sing together? They should.

[@staceyjomama99]

I have been a subscriber BEFORE shay so there. lol Cool song!

[@AJAX556]

Pretty good....

[@JoeFelice]

Back off, playa, cuz Stacey's here! Don't call it a comeback.

[@VAM_Physics_and_Engineering]

very good how long have you played? and are those vinyls in the background

[@JoeFelice]

I am not offended!

[@HAXzorzFTW123]

You should thank Shay. You just got one new subscriber :) Well done

[@ensign_poo]

beautiful:) What the hell, how've you been. I been MIA for a while.

[@MultiBWin]

lol joe ur great

[@Andyroo2319]

I see what you did there.

[@yourabuttkiss]

the song was good but the ending got you 5 stars

[@JoeFelice]

Nah, I play six string. I just have 12 string.

[@MaxBobcat]

whoops meant 2nd i think

[@Ryank1908]

Your voice reminds me of a more conventionally good Dylan =]

[@Latinocr]

Thank God you are so good at politics.

[@DementedZealot]

its not youtube... its people in general... sadly

[@JoeFelice]

Let's find out. Who wants a vasectomy?

[@knumorvid]

it's the same shay, shaytards and shayloss

[@Aqueries44]

haha congrats.

[@staceyjomama99]

I will never understand why youtubers are SO rude. lol oh well.

[@MaxBobcat]

do a video on different religions!

[@JoeFelice]

@BestBuddy916 We're pretty good buds. At some point we'll do a song together on my channel. Possibly this acoustic cover of Taio Cruz's "Dynamite" I've been working on.

[@Soranima]

You must be a hit at parties with your political suave and geetar playin'

[@thecolormaria]

what is this? a closet musician! cute, joe. :)

[@JoeFelice]

Not desperate, desirous.

[@wofwolfgang13]

thats pretty down

[@DementedZealot]

sometimes you sound like steven lynch hahah. Great stuff though

[@Aquadeam]

I have a crush on you on the internet, by the way.

[@JoeFelice]

Stop ass-kissing, ShayLoss.

[@testing4echo]

Liberals!

[@FluffyLizards]

meh, I didn't like the song. Cover Beck or Christian McLeer next time.
