We see those guys and they're playing their guitars
And we wonder how they got so far
Like angels strumming on those silver strings
A gift from above... maybe one of those things,
But you play those chords and you play them true
Play that tune for them or for you
Strum those strings, it's what you do...what you do.

Twenty odd bucks from the old corner shop
But it's your first guitar and you can't stop
The action's so high, you play but it hurts
Your fingers blister but that instrument flirts,
For she needs you so play her true
Music's first love and you're bitten thru and thru
Strum those strings it's what you do... what you do.

That old Martin, you play it in your dreams
And the vintage Gibson with the varnish that gleams
Same store window, four thousand dollars cash
So it's 'old faithful' that's battered and bashed
But fingers dance on those silver strings
You'd think they'd been given tiny angel wings
Your old guitar she really sings, she really sings.

That old guitar she now sit's upon your knees
And you are playing your music and hoping to please
The girl sitting there just across the room
Oh she's so pretty but will she like your tune?
But she needs you so play for her true
Music's first love you're both bitten thru and thru
You and 'old faithful' maybe,... maybe you'll both do.

We saw those guys that were playing their guitars
And we wondered how they'd got so far
Like angels strumming on those silver strings
A gift from above, maybe one of those things
But play your chords and you play them true
Play that tune for her or for you
Strum those strings, it's what you do... what you do.

WHITE AT NIGHT Hosted by Joe White

Devoted to honoring our history and its telling through music.

One of the most pleasant ways to grasp human history is by listening to and pondering our music. This is a show where music and history flow as one. Truly wonderful music is a reflection of the times in which it was born and the vast human experience preceding it. 

White At Night is an audio exploration of various artists' lives and the history that shaped their music. Not only can we discover where we have come from, but above all where we can go.

In a nutshell, this show is about life as expressed through tales from our song writers, poets and musicians, not from some marketing or otherwise canned factories.

Whether I am presenting a celebrated bassoonist from Vienna or an obscure blues picker from Mississippi, one of the most magnificent gifts we humans have created is music. Therefore, my show aims to spread the goodness of music, elaborate on the stories behind the songs and expound the myriad of human conditions that have shaped these tunes. 

Knowing our history and enjoying our music automatically conjures up strong emotions and gives perspective to the listener. Making people feel good about themselves and life as a whole is the objective of tuning in to White at Night.

Happy days,
Joe White
