John McDermott - I'm My Own Grandpa LIVE 2023

This week we have an old novelty song that John likes to perform on occasion. This was recorded @ Abbey Gardens, near Haliburton, ON. Canada on Aug. 13th 2023. with Jason Fowler - Guitar, Mark Lalama- Accordion, Maury LaFoy -bass.
from wikipedia: "I'm My Own Grandpa" is a novelty song written by Dwight Latham and Moe Jaffe, performed and turned into a hit by Lonzo and Oscar in 1947, about a man who, through an unlikely (but legal) combination of marriages, becomes stepfather to his own stepmother-by tacitly dropping the "step-" modifiers, he becomes his own grandfather.

Come to New York and New Jersey!!! Yes, we admit it, we would pay reems of $$$ to hear you sing The Old Man and Danny Boy. We saw the Irish Tenors tonight in Binghamton New York and they're never been the same. They're good but...we saw your first concert in NYC and those CDs are all we play. Oh do think about coming back. ❤️☘️🐾

I knew this song already from a previous rendition and loved it immediately for this more than strange matter. I can understand that you wanted to control each single dot and think that this one probably is the funniest of all your songs. It is joyful and makes lough everybody and put everybody in a good mood. Thank you John for this a little bit different but so nice surprise. 💝🎶🎶🎶

Well great job, John. You did this from memory and you didn't screw up!! I'm very impressed. No matter how many times I have heard you sing this song, it cracks me up especially with your facial expressions. Thank you for posting this one. I really needed a laugh today. GB.

Never thought I'd see you post this! You likely don't remember me, but I worked a TV special with you years ago, and you gave me words I'll never forget. You said: "You'll never make it in this business because you aren't a pr!ck". The clown nose was the icing on the compliment! Fun times to look back on this time of year.
