Well, not really. Sorry. No trivia this week. I took too much of my limited free time putting together this video. But I was saddened by the death of Kingston founding member Nick Reynolds, so I thought I would pay a little tribute to him.
Aside from the REALLY well known stuff I like, such as "M.T.A." and "Reverend Mr. Black", there are a couple I love that are perhaps less well known. This one quite a few people know, even if it's not so widely known as those above:
And this one is one of my alltime favorites, but I bet not one in ten people these days have heard it:
Rest in Peace, Nick. You brought a lot of smiles to my face.
UPDATE: Alright, what the heck. I'll add a few more. Here is "The Reverend Mr. Black":
And here is one of my all time favorites, "M.T.A.":
And here, at the risk of losing my RWDB cred, is another favorite - I like the sentiment, though I realize the naivete of it, plus I love both "Where Have All the Flowers Gone?" and "Early Morning Rain". Another version to be posted in a few, just because I like the jokes. In any case, here the guys are on "The Andy Williams Show" more than forty years ago:
Iz out!

My parents used to play Kingston Trio albums for me when I was a little gal. I am now mining my favorites off iTunes. Thanks for the reminder of how much I loved it.
