Marc Von Em is a blues/folk guitarist who I first came across one night I randomly stopped by Rockwood Music Hall in the LES. As it happens, that was one of two nights of live performances he later pulled for his CD, Live At Rockwood. If you listen closely, you may be able to hear me whooping in the background.
I'm pleased to say that Marc was one of the musicians we pulled for We Had Voices, and you can hear some of his licks in that podcast. What I have here is one of his newer songs, with lyrics characteristic of blues: minimalistic, repetitive, call/answer, and a wry, soulful wit. The ditty is "Many Lies" and has one of my favorite lines. You took away my ham and eggs, you took away my ham and eggs... what am I supposed to have with my coffee? Sing it, brother.
