Loudon Wainwright III


Loudon Wainwright III is the father of the Great Rufus Wainwright. He has been playing music since the 1960s in the folk style of Bob Dylan. I saw him last night/this morning (for tom) on "Late Night With Conan O'Brien." He sang "The Grammy Song" about his grandmother. His lyrics are very autobiographical and this particular song even mentioned Rufus by name. He gives the listener the feeling that he is making the song up as he goes. He gave me a weird Howard Dean vibe. Check out some audio clips at his official website LWIII.

"Here comes the choppers" reminds me of MacGyver, and Sarah, you can't say he is dumb, because I already know your opinion on him.

Clean this post up by the way, meaning the spam.

um no rufus's dad is way sweeter than bob dylan and so is rufus...if fact the sweet sweetness of both of them for out numbers any sweetness of bob dylan. mostly because bob dylan doesn't have any sweetened sweetness, at least not any sweetness compared with rufus and rufus's dad, and their sweetness.
