"Take These Chains from My Heart" is a song by #HankWilliams. It was written by #FredRose and #HyHeath and was recorded at Williams' final recording session on September 23, 1952, in #Nashville. The song has been widely praised; Williams' biographer #ColinEscott deems it "perhaps the best song [Rose] ever presented to Hank... It was one of the very few songs that sounded somewhat similar to a Hank Williams song." Williams is backed by #TommyJackson (fiddle).

Your Cheatin' Heart 💔

#OnThisDay in 1953, #HankWilliams, American #countrysinger-#songwriter ("Cold Cold Heart"; "Hey, Good Lookin'"; "Your Cheatin' Heart"), died of an alcohol and painkiller fueled #heartattack at 29.
#RIP 🪦

1/1/1953 - Hank Williams died in the back of a car driven by Charles Carr en route to a concert in Canton, OH. At around midnight on 1/1/1953, when the 2 crossed the Tennessee state line and arrived in Bristol, Virginia, Carr stopped at a small all-night restaurant & asked Williams if he wanted to eat. Williams said he did not, & those are believed to be his last words. Carr later drove on until he stopped for fuel at a gas station in Oak Hill, West Virginia, where he realized that Williams had been dead for so long that rigor mortis had already set in. The station's owner called the local police chief. In Williams' Cadillac, the police found some empty beer cans & unfinished handwritten lyrics. Dr. Ivan Malinin performed the autopsy at the Tyree Funeral House. He found hemorrhages in the heart & neck and pronounced the cause of death as "insufficiency of the right ventricle of the heart". He also wrote that Williams had been severely beaten & kicked in the groin recently (during a fight in a Montgomery bar a few days earlier), & local magistrate Virgil F. Lyons ordered an inquest into Williams' death concerning a welt that was visible on his head. That evening, when the announcer in Canton announced Williams' death to the gathered crowd, they started laughing because they thought it was just another excuse.

Country Music Day🤠

C’è una giornata in cui, in ogni angolo del pianeta, si sente riecheggiare una chitarra steel, si balla una line dance improvvisata e qualcuno si convince che i cowboy boots possano stare bene anche sotto un tailleur cittadino. È il 17 settembre, data che ogni anno ci regala

International Country Music Day

la festa internazionale dedicata alla musica country; agli amanti della musica country in tutto il mondo.

📅 Perché proprio il 17 settembre?

Il 17 settembre del 1923, nasceva Hank Williams, leggenda assoluta del country e voce che ha tracciato le strade polverose del genere. La sua musica ha reso immortali le storie di vita quotidiana, di amori travagliati e di sogni americani, tanto che oggi è celebrato come simbolo di questa ricorrenza. Quindi la data serve sia come memoria del suo contributo al genere, sia come occasione per celebrare l’intera storia della country music che – come genere – ha radici che affondano nei primi decenni del Novecento negli Stati Uniti.

📜 Da quando si celebra?

Qui le fonti un po’ si contraddicono (e un po’ bisogna prendere con le pinze), perché non ci sono documenti ufficiali universali che attestano la prima volta con certezza:

• Alcune fonti dicono che la giornata è stata istituita nel 2003 come un modo per “riunire musicisti e fan del country” a livello globale.
• Altre fonti più dubbie riportano che sia “dagli anni ’50” o “istituita negli anni ’50”, ma queste affermazioni non sembrano avere riscontri attendibili.
• Quindi il dato più credibile e ripetuto è 2003, anche se non è chiaro chi precisamente “ha deciso” questa data: non c’è un ente internazionale conosciuto (tipo UNESCO) che lo promuova ufficialmente.

🎶 Che cos’è esattamente

Il Country Music Day è una festa non ufficiale ma amatissima dagli appassionati. Non lo troverete segnato sul calendario accanto a Natale o Ferragosto, ma è entrato a pieno titolo tra quelle giornate che servono per condividere passioni comuni. L’idea comunque è nata con l’obiettivo di unire fan e musicisti in un’unica, grande celebrazione globale.

🌍 Dove si festeggia

Naturalmente la patria è l’America, dove il country è nato e continua a vivere tra Nashville, Texas e le infinite praterie del Midwest. Ma oggi la ricorrenza ha valicato oceani e confini: viene celebrata in Canada, Australia, Nuova Zelanda, Regno Unito e in diversi paesi europei. Persino in Italia non mancano radio, locali e piccoli festival che ogni anno organizzano serate a tema: cappelli da cowboy, balli di gruppo e tanto entusiasmo. E un grande “Grazie” a internet, Spotify, YouTube ecc., che si unisce alla festa…

🎤 Curiosità in salsa country

• Hank Williams, come dicevamo, è la “ragione” simbolica della data. Ha avuto un impatto enorme: molti lo considerano uno dei fondatori del “suono country” come lo conosciamo oggi.
• La musica country non è solo americana: esistono scene locali anche in Germania, Scandinavia e perfino in Giappone, dove i fan ballano il two-step con una disciplina invidiabile.
• In Australia, durante il Country Music Day, alcuni pub organizzano gare di ballo e premi per il miglior cappello da cowboy.
• In Italia circola l’idea che il country sia solo “musica da film western”: eppure, sempre più scuole di ballo propongono serate country che attirano centinaia di appassionati.
• La parte divertente? Non serve una fattoria per sentirsi country: bastano jeans, chitarra e la voglia di raccontare storie con tre accordi e tanta anima.

😄 Un pizzico di ironia / “country mood”

Immaginate: c’è un tizio in Italia che decide oggi, di mettere i cowboy boots, una camicia a quadri, accendere Spotify e ascoltare tre ore di Dolly Parton, Johnny Cash e qualche artista country italiano (sì, esistono!). Nel frattempo il vicino lo guarda, pensa “Ma che giorno è?”, e lui risponde “È International Country Music Day, vecchio!” – e magari il vicino scuote la testa ma poi canta “Ring of Fire” con lui.

E poi: è curioso come la musica country, con le sue storie di vita dura, amore perso, animali da fattoria e corpi che si lamentano per il lavoro sotto il sole, finisca con essere un genere tanto amato anche da chi non ha mai visto un trattore dal vivo. Ah, la magia delle corde, delle parole semplici e del cuore.

🤠 Un finale da rodeo

Il bello dell’International Country Music Day è che non importa se vivi a Nashville o a Milano: oggi è l’occasione per sentirti parte di un grande concerto globale. È la giornata che ci ricorda che, tra un banjo e un paio di stivali, non celebriamo solo un genere musicale, ma un modo di raccontare la vita.

Oggi 17 settembre, più degl’altri giorni, si ascolta country, si onorano gli artisti del genere, si balla, magari si impara a suonare la chitarra, il banjo, la steel guitar… o si va ad un concerto. È una celebrazione del genere country, del suo spirito narrativo, delle sue radici.

E allora alziamo il volume, battiamo le mani a tempo e facciamoci trascinare: perché, in fondo, il country ci insegna che ogni storia – anche la più semplice – merita la sua canzone. 🎶

It's a short one for a change, but sometimes those are the best.

Might as well call it CBGB because it's nothing but country, bluegrass, and various shades of blues.

Lucinda Williams, Ramblin’ On My Mind, 1979 on Folkways

Attributed to “Lucinda” mono-nymically, this was Williams’ debut solo album, released in 1979 on Folkways (which became Smithsonian Folkways in 1987).

She’s accompanied by  John Grimaudo on 6-string guitar (she plays 12-string and sings), and the album was produced by Tom Royals, an attorney for whom this is the only producing credit – he was a friend of her father. It was recorded at Malaco Studios in Jackson, Mississippi.

It’s a collection of blues, folk, and country covers, some traditional and some by named artists: Robert Johnson, A.P. Carter, Memphis Minnie, Sleepy John Estes, Hammie Nixon, Hank Williams, Roy Acuff, Joe Hayes and Jack Rhodes.

My copy is a 2021 reissue, but I’m not sure where I got it from.

„Können Sie lächeln und sagen, dass Sie wahrhaftig gewesen sind?“ Hank Williams 1951

Hi!
Perhaps a Re-#Introduction is in order since there's so many more people in this space to share stories and insights with.

I'm an #Alchemist. I manipulate symbols and materials to effect #transformations and thus transform myself.
My practice was revealed to me in a series of trances by an ancient #goddess who has many historical forms. Some of these are the #Kemetic goddesses known as the Eyes of Ra. She recently revealed to me that she would like me to refer to her as #Hathor. I'm not second guessing that advice.

I'm a cis het old guy (58) happy married for 25 years. I adore women. Mostly from afar.

Race- white, blue eyed ethnic jew.

My technique is centered on an apparatus I built based on a design the goddess revealed. I later connected the components and operation symbolically to equipment and processes described in classic #Alchemy sources.
I'm a non-traditional Alchemist. I don't use a forge or do metallurgy. My device is electrical and uses a type of #crystal to focus energy. It can roughly be described as a type of lamp. The picture shows the output of my process. It's called a #Violograph.

It is commonly asserted, and I agree, that the coveted philosopher's stone refers to the practitioners themselves. As the goal of the process it is in reality the transformed person.
This is done by separating the spirit and soul from the #body, changing them and then re-uniting them in the body again. Carl #Jung has some interesting ideas on this.

Politically- #anarchosyndicalist and card carrying #Wobbly. I’ve been working at the same factory for 28 years.

Other areas of interest besides the #occult are listed below.

Music-
I write songs, play electric #bass and #ukulele. Not famous at all.

#HerbertSpencer (I know- cringe)
#MaxStirner
#Hegel
#Heraclitus
#Iamblichus
 
Food: #glutenfree, I'll take what I can get. Non-celiac.

Drink- #pinotgrigio wine spritzers mostly.
A pinch of #weed goes a looooonnnng way. After 45 years of smoking I'm a total lightweight now that it's legal here. That's #Chicago (officially a suburb 10 miles outside city limits), btw.

Everyone I’ve met here is awesome!
Peace and Solidarity!
