This weekend I checked out a dvd of "The McGarrigle Hour", with Kate and Anna McGarrigle, Loudon Wainwright, Rufus (etc, etc) and I just loved it. For those of you that don't know, Kate McGarrigle is Rufus Wainwrights mother, who for a short time was married to Loudon Wainwright. Anyway, I went looking for a couple of songs to post that I had heard from that McGarrigle Hour thing...didn't really find them, but I did find this, and I think it's pretty special.Rufus also makes a guest appearance in this performance, and I think he's only about 21....if!
BTW I also found a terrible old Canadian film this weekend that had Rufus performing a song in it. He was only about 13 years old....its was so cool! I could see he had already worked out that scowl of his....not at all worth checking out, BTW, unless you are a Rufus fan...Tommy Trickster and the Stamp Traveler.
I hope you will enjoy this very special video. I know I am.

OOOO, I have that on my MP3 player. Dick Gaughan is a god! And the MacGarragiggles are good too, though their voices get a bit reedy at times.
