Default Remembering The Tractors

I loved the songs/albums these guys turned out. Just a fun band. Sadly, Steve Ripley (lead singer) died in 2019.



Merry Christmas

Love those guys!

I visited a niece in Tulsa once, and she gave me a town tour. The high point Steve Ripley's studio, a church he'd taken the pews out of. Tons of cool gear, of course. Hanging over everything was a big tractor painting that became an album cover.

Also on the itinerary: TV Guide Plaza, Oral Roberts' praying hands, and the Oklahoma Oil Man. Too much fun!

Now 'scuse me while I Tulsa shuffle. . . .
