Working For The Weekend

New version with my friend´s Levin banjo from 1930:s added. New mix Jan 2023 version 9. The "silver hammer" is two sledge hammers banged together :-) First time ever I raised the key for a Beatles song, from D to E sharp. 
A "Daddy song" from Paul with 40´s Music Hall inspiration. According to me, they are 1) When I´m 64, 2) Honey Pie,  3) Martha my Dear,  4) Your Mother Shold Know 5) Maxwells Silver Hammer and 6) You Gave Me Your Answer (Wings). 
---------------------
Instruments:  Acoustic guitars, ukuleles, banjos, Hofner violine bass, tambourine and drums. Alesis synth: Rhodes, piano, harmonica. Two sledge hammers. Mixed in Logic Pro X. 
---------------------
Joan was quizzical, studied pataphysical - Science in the home
Late nights all alone with a test-tube ohh oh oh oh
Maxwell Edison majoring in medicine - Calls her on the phone
Can I take you out to the pictures, Joan?
But as she's getting ready to go
A knock comes on the door

Bang, bang, Maxwell's silver hammer
Came down upon her head
Bang, bang, Maxwell's silver hammer
Made sure that she was dead

Back in school again Maxwell plays the fool again - Teacher gets annoyed
Wishing to avoid an unpleasant scene
She tells Max to stay when the class has gone away - So he waits behind
Writing 50 times "I must not be so" oh oh oh
But when she turns her back on the boy
He creeps up from behind

Bang, bang, Maxwell's silver hammer
Came down upon her head
Bang, bang, Maxwell's silver hammer
Made sure that she was dead

P.C. Thirty-One said "We caught a dirty one" - Maxwell stands alone
Painting testimonial pictures ohh oh oh oh
Rose and Valerie screaming from the gallery Say he must go free
The judge does not agree and he tells them so oh oh oh
But as the words are leaving his lips
A noise comes from behind

Bang, bang, Maxwell's silver hammer - Came down upon his head
Bang, Bang, Maxwell's silver hammer- Made sure that he was dead

They are best known for their six No. 1 hits on the Billboard Hot 100: "Rich Girl", "Kiss on My List", "Private Eyes", "I Can't Go for That (No Can Do)", "Maneater", and "Out of Touch", as well as many other songs which charted in the Top 40. In total, they had 34 chart hits on the US Billboard Hot 100.

Rich Girl - is a fun filled trip down memory lane from the 70s when the duo was formed through the height of their stardom in the late 80s. This tribute act captures the songs, the style, the time and everything Hall & Oates, in this true to form live musical tribute act. 

Along with the chart topping pop hits of the 70s and 80s, Hall & Oates revisited and perfected some of Motown’s most popular soulful hits, most notably “You’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feeling,” along many others.

Rich Girl will soulfully guide you back through the story of two guys who met during college in Pittsburgh and soon become one of the greatest selling pop duos of all time. Known by some as Daryl and John, but known by the world as Hall & Oates!
