   About Alley Ghost
Photobucket




We are all part of an ancient tradition
Resurrected every other generation
older than the dirt
and they can't wipe us out.
We're like the weeds or the roaches -
Just by being who we are
we'll warp levers on their machines
from the inside out.


In late summer of 2008, we hooked up with Bob because we love his music. Doormat got behind the wheel and drove us all together. We fell together in the kitchen around a reel to reel and the Alley Ghost sang. But he's always been singing - nobody sees his body because they aren't looking - people look at you and not in you so Bob made his life transparent - so that people could always see him. And still people don't look.

We love the music but it's more than that - we live his music. His music is our music and it's the same thing. We've been singing since the 60s and the 30s before that and all the way back to the Civil War and the ships and the fields and the mountains. And we won't stop because it's out of our control.

There's always been Alley Ghosts and there always will be. The Alley Ghosts of the Delta built a billion dollar culture that still refuses to look at them. Here's a ghost that breathes. If you don't look at him, then you don't get it and you never will.
