El Pony Pisador – The saucy Arabella
(Matricular una Galera 2019)
En aquesta cançó hem volgut barrejar la sonoritat del bluegrass, els sea shanties, el yodel americà i les tonades irlandeses per fer una combinació frenètica i desenfadada.
Hem acompanyat el shanty “A rolling down the river” amb les tonades Saint Anne’s Reel i Hommage a Edmond Parizeau -o Tactum reel, perquè el dia que el vam aprendre el Martí va anar a una perruqueria que es diu Tactum- i yodels a dues veus inspirats en artistes com Franzl Lang i Jimmie Rodgers. A més, la cançó canvia de to constantment i per primer cop inclou el banjo de 5 cordes tocant melodies.

The arabella set the main topsail
The arabella set the main topsail
The arabella set the main topsail
A Rollin down the river
Rollin’ down, rollin’ down,
Rollin’ down the river,
Rollin’ down, Rollin’ down,
Said the bucko mate to the greaser’s wife
A pumpkin pudding an’ a bulgine pie,
A pumpkin pudding an’ a bulgine pie,
A pumpkin pudding an’ a bulgine pie,
On board the Arabella
The arabella said the main foresail…
The arabella set the main royal…
The arabella said the yodeleiri
The arabella said the tri orouri orouri
The arabella said the triri orouri orouri
A Rollin down the river
