Do you ever have tunes bump into each other in your brain in destructive ways?
I recently learned the very fun D tune Twin Sisters off of the Chance McCoy album Debut. After playing it a few times this morning I tried to play Soldiers Joy and every time I tried to start it I would end up playing the start of Twin Sisters. I tried taking a breath and slowing down and, for the life of me, I couldn't remember how to start it! (I could play the B part just fine.) Finally, I had to listen to Mike Iverson's version of the tune about three times through before it came back to me and then I was fine. Now, I've probably played Soldiers Joy at least 1000 times through. It was one of the first songs I learned and it's one of those tunes that just kind of plays itself automatically whenever I switch over to double D. It's amazing to me that I could ever "forget" how to play it like that. Maybe dementia is starting in.
