I saw these guys live recently, they were amazing, they are a mother and son from Kansas City. I can't stop listening to, and playing their songs. Please check them out - the original is far better!Last night I slept in a big yellow taxiMy imagination told me I was in the back seatOf course, that was a story I sungEven though I had clothes, I frozeEven my jacket was cold

    Thanks for the comments guys!

    UJ - glad you liked them. Their album is a real treat from start to finish. Here's another good one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ts2aARA1dwQ

    Will - thanks man, the tuning on this one is G major but tuned down half a step, so F#C#F#A#. The song is literally 3 chords, C, F and G.

    Jim - I think that might be intentional. I was expecting a Joni cover too :-)

    Nice Richey! Even tho' I was expecting Joni Mitchel's Yellow Taxi I enjoyed this a bunch. Yup, I checked out some of Madisen and Mama's vids - very cool.

    Richie, I checked out Madisen Ward and Mama Bear on several youtube videos.  I love them.  My fave was Live On The Water.   

    Richie do you know about NPR Tiny Desk Concerts?  A great many short concerts on youtube- some I like and some I do not.   I watched Madisen and Mama in one of those.

    I like that!   Happy, sad feisty and snappy.  Will check them out.  Good job, Richey.
