Yellow moon, yellow moon,
Why you keep peeping in my window?
Do you know something I don't know?
Did you see my baby
Walking down the railroad tracks?
You can tell me if the girls
Ever coming back.
Is she hid out with another
Or is she trying to get back home?
Is she wrapped up in some other's arms?
Or is the girl somewhere all alone?
Can you see if she is missing me,
Or is she having a real good time?
Has she forgotten all about,
Or is the girl still mine all mine?
With your eye so big a shiney
You can see the whole damn land
Yellow moon can you tell me
If the girl's with another man?
Oh yellow moon,
Have you seen that creole woman
You can tell me,
Now ain't you a friend of mine.
With your eye so big a shiney
You can see the whole damn land
Yellow moon can you tell me
If the girl's with another man?
Oh yellow moon,
Have you seen that creole woman
You can tell me,
Now ain't you a friend of mine.

Used to deal with Charles and Aaron way back in the late 80's and early 90's. Both were very nice, and Charles' wife was adorably Hippy

my FAVORITE Neville Brothers tune - best live!
Man’s voice was created to sing, no matter how you feel about all other parts of a Neville Bro’s song.

It's so poignant to see one of Cynaera's posts quoted today. And I feel a bit foolish replying, but Google translate yields this result for

Yeah, the horns on the version of Congo Square on the same album are something I cannot abide.
I'm OK with the sax on this one though - it almost grates, but doesn't quite cross the line.
And that sousaphone bassline is just sublime. Saves the track, IMO.

FYI: these guys do a killer version of Dylan's: :God on our Side".
Reminds me of my early 20s. These guys were on heavy rotation during the early 1990s for me

bleh - the hackneyed crescendo of hammer-ons at the end makes me cringe. . .
That freak out guitar playing is very Hendrix circa Band of Gypsy's influenced. Love it.

The Neville Brothers never did much for me until I saw them live this past year. I'm not a fan of falsetto voices but Aaron has an amazing range! It's hard not to be impressed by that.

great song. I'd give the studio version a 9.
the touch...the feel...the fabric of our lives.
Just saw these guys with Dr. John about a month ago! What a GREAT show!!! They all still rock in a Big Way! We so need this kind of music right now!
What a groove. Concur that we need more N'Awlins type stuff like this and Dr John.

I didn't really know who these guys were when at a concert, Bill Graham came onstage to introduce "the fabulous Neville Brothers"
Then then proceeded to bring down the house. This was one of the memorable songs they performed that evening.

how about an alblum only with 45 minutes of funky guitarr.
Funky guitarr. simply a cool sound. and the electric organ doesn't do any harm either.

According to himself 90% (although I think the actual number is likely much higher) of what he says is crap.

There are a number of live versions of this tune, of which is the second best. If you can find it, there's a live version from Austin City Limits that is a real butt-kicker.

My FAVORITE Neville Brothers tune!
I have always longed to go to the New Orleans Jazzfest. I have heard about it for years and have talked about going with some friends for a couple of years now.
When, if ever, will the Jazzfest be back? I hear that the fairgrounds where this was held was underwater with the rest of the city. How sad.
The Nevilles are great! :D
I have been to Jazzfest twice and it's an experience like no other. Hot, humid, crazy, fun. Local and national acts, something IMO not to be missed. Want to take my kids there at some point. And miraculously, the show is to go on this year!

My wife and I went to JazzFest a few years back and it rained the whole weekend! I mean the track at the JazzFest grounds was one big mudpit and people were just sliding all over the place - some on purpose, some not :) Anyway, the Neville Brothers were the last act on Sunday evening and during their show the rain finally stopped. We were all really digging the tunes and Aaron's soulful voice and having a grand time. As he began to sing the last song, Amazing Grace, the sun appeared below the clouds and bathed us all in a golden glow. Talk about amazing grace - it still sends shivers up my spine just thinking about it.
Yah, luv those 'chicken skin' moments....proof that your HUMANITY is still relatively intact...

Sublime. Keep that N.O. groove rolling...
I went out with a girl who would pounce on me whenever I played this song (studio version actually). She said it was one of the sexiest song she'd ever heard.

I'm with Lesllie on this one. Perfect for this one, maybe not for other songs. Can you believe the rythm on this song?

(pimp)
Perhaps, Bill, you could play Look-a-Py-Py??
I uploaded some meters songs but they weren't accepted.
Great band, great groove, must be seen at least once in a life-time, I saw them was in support of this tour, May(?) 1989 live in the Grand Ballroom- Navy Pier, Chicago. Thanks for the nostalgia trip this afternoon. (pimp)

Heck anything by the original Meters would be good. Would love to hear something by them on RP. I think I remember hearing somewhere that the Meters were one of Paul McCartney's favorite bands. Aaaah....luv listenting to that offbeat N'Orleans sound.
(pimp)
Perhaps, Bill, you could play Look-a-Py-Py??
this song is way overplayed, live or otherwise, for its dubious merits
:roll: :oops:

Always reminded me of \"Cane Fire\" by the Peter Moon band. Haven\'t a clue why, but since you\'re in HI, it just might go with the set.
YES! Nawlins MUSIC!

\"Red Moon\" by The Call.
On moon color:
By the Light of the Silvery Moon
Blue Moon of Kentucky
Dark Moon
Moon Categories:
Full Moon Fever
Shine On Harvest Moon
Not to mention the hoary old chestnut "Moon River." Think it's by Jerome Kern.

Excellent challenge Phaedra, exactly like those we have come to expect from our beloved BCNH. You should pose this question to the comment board. ![cool](https://img.radioparadise.com/emoji/icon_cool.gif)

I really like this, not really sure why, the song just works really well for me.
Makes you get up, get it moving, and get gone.
;) Brings back memories of drivin the lake front here in Nawleans on a few double dates with a recently departed friend (damn fool shot himself)as we hoped to get lucky and tried to find the miss right, or miss right now anyway.
Thanks for the fond memories.
P.S.
Arron Neville is a scary lookin Dude but is nice as can be now ( he was a knee breaker for someone and did some jail time) and he got almost no money from his first hit \" Tell it like it is\".
Never heard this song but I am completely digging the groove. Very nice!
