about

A tribute to the person why I play…

The story behind it:

When I was a little kid of nine years old, my father used to organize concerts for American folk musicians (f.e. Eugene Ruffolo, Happy and Artie Traum,…) . One of the most remarkable people he worked with is a folk legend across the Atlantic, Ramblin’ Jack Elliot.

Back at that time we used to live in a small apartment. On one of the first occasions Jack came to Europe, my dad had the amazing idea: “Let Jack sleep at our apartment.” There was my dad, Sylvia, me, Jack and his driver. Five people in the small apartment.

He literally almost drove people insane.

Yodeling in the shower, … but he got me hooked on the guitar.

lyrics

Ramblin' Man

In the trail of the Ramblin’ Man
The trail of the Ramblin’ Man

I’m heading out on the rambling’ road
I’m holding on to my childish faith
Never knew about the Western sea
But it all was made clear to me

In the trail of the Ramblin’ Man
The trail of the Ramblin’ Man
In the trail of the Ramblin’ Man
The trail of the Ramblin’ Man

When miles of road just pass me by
I think about home every time
And Jack you showed me long ago
The reason how to play

In the trail of the Ramblin’ Man
The trail of the Ramblin’ Man
In the trail of the Ramblin’ Man
The trail of the Ramblin’ Man

Busted home at age thirteen
To chase around some old dream
I headed out to Woodstock ville
Found the words to write this song

Yihaa!

In the trail of the Ramblin’ Man
The trail of the Ramblin’ Man
In the trail of the Ramblin’ Man
The trail of the Ramblin’ Man

Often pray that time stood still
Hope to see you one more time
If there’s something like a musical dad
I know it would be Ramblin’ Jack

In the trail of the Ramblin’ Man
The trail of the Ramblin’ Man
In the trail of the Ramblin’ Man
The trail of the Ramblin’ Man
