Straight out of the Yocona river bottom in Layfette County, MS. The Taylor Grocery Band (whose lineup includes members of the Kudzu Kings, Junior Kimbrough’s Soul Blues Boys and The Sincere Ramblers) have been spreading their message of love and boogie throughout the southeast since the release of their self titled debut CD in
2003.
In their 2 year stint as Thacker Mountain Radio house band TGB had the oppurtunity to jam on air with such notables as Del McCoury, Elvis Costello, The Drive By Truckers, Robert Randolph, Tony Furtado, Marty Stuart, North
Mississippi All Stars, Jimbo Mathus, Cary Hudson and Danny Barnes.
The band’s influences include such Mississippi greats as Duff Durrough, Mississippi John Hurt, Jim Dickinson, Professor Ellsworth Dye, Mr. Tater and Junior Kimbrough.
INSTRUMENTATION:
Kinney Kimbrough- drums
T. Bryan Ledford-guitar, mandolin, banjo
Justin Showah- bass
Max Williams- slide guitar, lap steel
I was listening to a show on the radio on Saturday, March 24th 2007. I heard what I understood to be a Gospel Song sung including the words “Aren’t You My Child…Come Home to me Now”. I have not heard this song before. I am interested in knowing the text of this song. Is it available on recorded media?
