Redneck jazz Explosion Vol. II So let’s waltz back to New Year’s Eve, l978. Tonight the Cellar Door club, sold out weeks in advance, is owned by Danny Gatton’s instrumental aggregate, the Redneck Jazz Explosion. The crowd has come to see not only the guitarist presenting his virtuosic wares in all instrumental jazz setting but his pairing with pedal steel maestro Buddy Emmons. To quote Ralph Heibutzki from his 2003 biography, “Unfinished Business-The Life Times of Danny Gatton,” the December 31, l978, Cellar Door gig has assumed legendary proportions for its place in Gatton history. Swearing you were there is akin to saying you saw the Beatles at the Cavern Club or caught the Yardbird’s hot, sweaty nights at the Marquee.” It’s a great tribute to Danny that Buddy Emmons, who had not been on the road for years, did hit the highways with the Explosion.

He’s not too happy either! If you can believe this, he’s even angrier than Larry and his cursing cousin Kevin! Watch out, cause heeeeerrrrrreeeeeeee’s SANTA!

Humor, Laughter and Tears
When thinking about humor have you ever heard that the closest thing to laughter is tears? I can just picture my grandma now, hopelessly out of control, laughing so hard she was shaking, with no noise coming out but unable to stop, mouth wide open, and eyes crinkled in glee, with big crocodile tears running down her face. It’s kind of odd, the two sides of humor, we laugh, we relax, we find relief, but a lot of times there is pain involved, and laughter can be redeeming, or hurtful. Sometimes the most horrible things actually turn out to be humorous.
