This Ol' Riverboat

This Ol' Riverboat is a song performed by The New Christy Minstrels . Written by Randy Sparks , it first appeared on the album, Today , in 1964.

This ol' riverboat walkin up the river Keep her steady as you go Heave the lead and pay the line Now we're markin' on the twine Four fathoms below Way up the river we go. This ol' riverboat walkin' by the levee Keep her steady as you go Think I hear the captain say, Full ahead we're on our way Three fathoms below Way up the river we go. Keep on a-movin' gotta beat ol' Dixie Or we'll come back empty I know Way down the river I can hear her whistle blow. This ol' riverboat churnin' muddy water Ease er' down and take it slow Can't you hear that rumblin' sound Lord, I think we've run aground No fathoms below You'd better pray it ain't so. We're muckin' bottom, and here comes ol' Dixie Singin' who's got that cotton to sell? Ah, but when she's passin' We're risin' high on her swell. We're on the move again. These two riverboats, racin' up the river, Then ol' Dixie runs aground There she stands high and dry, And we're walkin' right on by I can see the lights of town We're gonna roll that cotton down This ol' riverboat seen a lot of water Lot of cotton, you can bet. You can ask anyone you meet, They say she can't be beat. She ain't never been yet. Can't you hear that whistle blow. Way up the river we go. Walkin' up the river we go Up and down the river we go.

Mark Knopfler’s ‘One Deep River’ and 11 more things you must hear this week

• Updated: Apr. 11, 2024, 7:07 a.m. |
• Published: Apr. 09, 2024, 11:58 a.m.

"One Deep River," the 10th solo album from former Dire Straits frontman Mark Knopfler, comes out Friday, April 12 (Courtesy Warner Records) Warner Records

• Gary Graff, special to cleveland.com

Mark Knopfler skipped Dire Straits’ Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction in 2018 but delivers a big batch of new music this week, his “One Deep River” joining new releases from Future and Metro Boomin’, Blue Oyster Cult, country hitmaker Ernest, Journey’s former bassist, girl in red and others, as well as the soundtrack to the upcoming Amy Winehouse biopic (all subject to change)...

Mark Knopfler, “One Deep River” (British Grove/Blue Note/EMI): It’s been a minute -- six years, actually, with a Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction thrown in -- since the former Dire Straits’ frontman’s last solo album. His 10th has all the hallmarks of time well spent, however; in addition to the core 12 tracks, Knopfler and his crew -- which includes Straits keyboardist Guy Fletcher -- recorded enough material for four bonus tracks on vinyl and a completely different five extra tracks for the CD. And, he says, there’s yet another four-song EP that will surface down the road. Clearly his creative have not been still.

Wyatt Flores, a Rising Country Artist, Has a Superpower: Tapping Emotions

The 22-year-old singer and songwriter makes music that touches listeners deeply. But his own trauma — coupled with his rapid rise — has thrown some bumps in the road.

By Josh Crutchmer

Reporting from Nashville; Des Moines, Iowa; Tulsa, Okla.; and Stillwater, Okla.

In early February, the singer and songwriter Wyatt Flores relaxed on a green room couch in Nashville before headlining the 1,200-capacity Brooklyn Bowl for the first time. The show had sold out nearly instantly, thanks in part to “Life Lessons,” his seven-song EP filled with raw, emotional country songs that added fuel to the “blowup” — his word for the last year of his career and life.

Flores, now 22, had been playing professionally since age 16 and releasing music since 2021 when his song “Please Don’t Go” caught fire on social media in early 2023. The spare track, written by Flores as a plea to a loved one not to take their life, features a simple fingerpicked guitar arrangement, centering the song on his raw vocals. His emotion resonated with fans, helping Flores stand out among the young, stripped-down singer-songwriters that country music is rapidly embracing.

“I’ve always talked about mental health, and that’s what that song is,” Flores said, “so I made a video explaining it — me sitting there in the studio doing a little acoustic of it. Next thing you know, it just started spinning. I could not believe it. I went from doing lives on TikTok at 2 in the morning, and there’d be 24 people in there. Next thing I know, I’ve got a thousand, then 1,500.”

Suddenly, he found himself included in discussions about the future of country music. The rise left Flores, who had always struggled with anxiety, in a constant state of near panic.

Less than a week after the Nashville show, he broke down during a gig in Kansas City, Mo., telling the crowd in a lengthy address that he felt numb despite his musical dreams coming true. The next day, his managers made the call to pull him off the road.

“I had to focus on being me, and finding things that I love, and putting myself back into my own skin, honestly,” he said in March, chatting once again on a backstage couch — this one in a tiny green room at Wooly’s, a rock bar in the heart of Des Moines, Iowa. Downstairs, fans at the sold-out venue were filing in for his first club show back. During his break, Flores cut his long hair, and was now wearing it in a mop covering his eyes.

Flores sings with sincerity, and his autobiographical songwriting is often heavy with emotion. Home is his family’s ranch on the outskirts of Stillwater, Okla. Flores is native to the state, with Mexican American heritage. His father, Noe, is a welder, and Flores says if it were not for music, he would be one too. He often writes about Stillwater and that ranch. He flipped his truck into a ditch barely a mile from the house after a night of drinking, and turned the story into the song “3/13,” a cautionary tale.

Stillwater is a college town and the center of a music scene called Red Dirt, which showcases candid songwriting and simple musical arrangements that evoke Woody Guthrie, one of its inspirations. Noe, a drummer, introduced his son to the Great Divide , one of the area’s flagship bands; Scotte Lester, the group’s guitar player, became a mentor.

“What struck my first chord was sitting around campfires with my dad and Scotte, and listening to Scotte either tell a true story or one that he was making up real quick, and then playing a song that he either knew or was making up as well,” Flores said. “That was my childhood. I was always surrounded by music.”

Flores gave college a try, spending two weeks at the Oklahoma State University Institute of Technology before dropping out to play music full-time — an experience he documented in the upbeat song “Life Lessons.”

When Flores was in middle school, he lost one of his closest friends to suicide. “It hurts you, because one day, they’re gone, and you can’t do nothing about it,” he recalled. “All you have are these leftover conversations.” In August 2023, while he was on tour, his maternal grandfather took his life. After that, Flores began covering the Fray’s “How to Save a Life” during shows, often using the song as a chance to discuss mental health with his audiences.

The track made it onto “Half Life,” his new EP due April 19, as its only cover. Its devastatingly personal title track, written before his grandfather’s death, includes haunting, specific lyrics reminiscing about their time together. Its single “Wish I Could Stay” is about a date Flores had — an evening spent driving around looking at Christmas lights — that he did not want to end. The song is a waltz, heavy on strings and keyboard, with Flores almost screaming the refrain in his pained twang.

Flores’s music is not always dark, but it is true to his life, and message-driven. “I wanted to create something that said, ‘Go chase your dreams. Understand that there’s going to be down spots where you’re going to hit rock bottom,’” he said of his “Life Lessons” EP. “But that’s part of it.”

“Half Life,” Flores added, is about understanding that all of that will end one day. He took inspiration from “If We Were Vampires,” a 2017 Jason Isbell song that grappled with the same topic.

“It sounds emo, but it really did open my eyes,” he said, acknowledging he thinks about death a great deal for someone just a year above drinking age. “That’s what I hope it’ll do for other people, too. Go live your life while you can.”

Flores seized his moment in late 2023 when he debuted at Nashville’s Ryman Auditorium over two nights, sandwiched between the headliner Charles Wesley Godwin and the opener Cole Chaney. Godwin, 30, is a West Virginia native whose personal songwriting style is similar to that of Flores, whom he sees as a budding superstar.

“I see the potential for Wyatt to play stadiums,” Godwin said in a phone interview. “For him to already be expressing himself in the way he does, in the songs he composes and his melodies, to connect with people the way he is, the sky is literally the limit for him.”

Flores knows that in order to work up to his future potential, he needs to grapple with his past. When he left the road after his onstage breakdown, one of the first things he did was to seek counseling. His 2020 move from his lifelong home in Oklahoma to Nashville — and a near-constant industry buzz of writing, recording or playing shows — had left him more homesick than he realized. Last summer, his first headlining tour resumed a week after his grandfather’s funeral, leaving Flores with little time to grieve. The cumulative effect, he realized during counseling, amounted to years of pain he had been suppressing.

“Goodness, it opened up a lot of wounds,” he said. “I didn’t even know what I was experiencing was trauma until they told me. I thought I had to be abused, that it had to go that far to be considered trauma.”

Flores spent most of his break at his parents’ home in Oklahoma. He played with his dogs. He hung out with his family. After a few weeks, he picked up a spur-of-the-moment gig at a Stillwater bar called the Salty Bronc. His dad sat in on drums.

When he returned to his own stage in Des Moines, he was recharged. He played for two hours before ending with “West of Tulsa,” a song with a driving beat from “Life Lessons” about a hollow one-night stand that has become his preferred set closer. The packed house sang along: “I just wanna be somebody, oh/We just wanna be somebody, oh.”

Flores walked off first, leaving his band to jam the final few minutes, and brought his two managers in for a group hug.

“I did it!” he yelled. He was back on track.

National News | Body of missing Beaver County, Pa. man found in Monongahela River after 3-day search

A 36-year-old man from Beaver County, Pa., was found dead Tuesday afternoon , after a three-day search ended with local law enforcement discovering his truck in the Monongahela River.

Brian Posch , of Brighton Township, was initially reported missing when he failed to show up for work on Friday morning. Cellphone data led police to determine his last known location to be in the town of Elizabeth, near the waterway, reported CBS News Pittsburgh.

An extensive search followed, including dive teams and at least four boats on the river.

On Monday, divers located a large mass of metal in the river but were unable to remove it due to unsafe weather conditions. The truck was removed the following day, at which point crews found Posch’s remains inside.

The Allegheny County Medical Examiner’s Office is expected to carry out an autopsy on Wednesday to determine his exact cause of death.

It’s not yet clear how the 36-year-old ended up in the river but police say foul play is not suspected.

“We do not have evidence of foul play at this time, however, with all investigations, things could change at a moment’s notice,” said Elizabeth Police Chief Ken Honick.

A full investigation is being carried out by the Elizabeth Township Police Department, the Allegheny County Medical Examiner and the Allegheny County Police Department’s Homicide Unit.

Posch is survived by his wife and their young daughter .

12-year-old trapped, killed after truck falls into Colorado river

A 12-year-old boy was killed, and two others were injured when a truck they were riding in went off the road and fell into a river in Colorado's Rocky Mountains, west of Denver.

The Clear Creek County Sheriff's Office, in a news release Sunday , said deputies with the department responded to reports of a motor vehicle accident around 9:00 p.m. Saturday.

When they arrived at the scene, they found a "truck submerged" in the Clear Creek River, with "several occupants outside the vehicle needing assistance".

Among them were two women with "facial lacerations and a male running up the embankment screaming for help."

Deceased trapped underwater

As an investigation ensued, deputies discovered that there was a fourth victim, too: a 12-year-old boy, who was trapped in the submerged vehicle.

Rescuers and a good Samaritan jumped into the river to retrieve the young boy but were met with several challenges as the boy was "trapped between a boulder and the vehicle."

"Deputies were able to lift the vehicle enough for an officer to extract the victim," said the sheriff's office.

However, despite resuscitation efforts, they were unable to save the 12-year-old boy, who was pronounced deceased upon arrival at a local hospital.

Neither the deceased nor others involved in the accident were identified and the authorities also did not specify the relationship between them. The sheriff's office also did not provide an update on the injuries of the other three involved in the accident or how the vehicle ended up in the river.

"The Clear Creek County Sheriff's Office offers our deepest condolences to the grieving family during this very difficult time," the sheriff's office said.

New lawsuit filed by Old National Bank victims' families includes gun accessory supplier

Two days before the one-year anniversary of the mass shooting at Old National Bank, families of the those killed have a filed a lawsuit. It's the second lawsuit to be filed against a Louisville gun shop, but this one includes a gun accessory supplier and manufacturer.

The new lawsuit filed in Jefferson County Circuit Court on Monday claims Louisville gun shop River City Firearms overlooked red flags when selling an AR-15-style rifle that was eventually used to kill five in the April 10  mass shooting at Old National Bank.

The civil suit is filed on behalf of the estates of three victims against River City Firearms, as well as RSR Group, a Florida wholesale distributor of firearms and accessories that supplies River City Firearms, and Magpul Industries Corp., a Texas manufacturer of firearms and firearms accessories.

Magpul manufactures large-capacity magazines and vertical grips, like those purchased by the gunman in the Old National Bank shooting. RSR sold those accessories to River City Firearms.

Derrick Meyers founded River City Firearms at 2915 Preston Highway in October 2015, per its articles of incorporation with the Secretary of State .

Contacted by The Courier Journal, River City Firearms 's attorney, Matthew Taulbee, declined to comment on the suit. Messages left with RSR Group and Magpul Industries were not immediately returned.

The plaintiffs are the estates of Deana Eckert, Juliana Farmer and Tommy Elliott and the executors of those estates: Tommy Elliott's wife, Maryanne; Deana Eckert's husband, Michael; and Juliana Farmer's children, A'lia Tazhia Chambers and J'eyon Christopher Chambers.

The suit largely mirrors one filed in Jefferson County Circuit Court in January on behalf of six plaintiffs : Julie Andersen, Jimmy Evans, Dana Mitchell and Stephanie "Dallas" Schwartz, who were all injured in the attack but survived; and the families of James Tutt and Joshua Barrick, who were killed.

That suit was filed by Louisville attorney Tad Thomas of Thomas Law Offices, along with Antonio Romanucci of Romanucci & Blandin in Chicago and Alla Lefkowitz of the national group Everytown Law.

It alleged "red flags were present in spades" when River City Firearms sold the AR-15 to Connor Sturgeon, citing his suspicious behavior and lack of basic firearms knowledge.

Sturgeon told the clerk he wanted a firearm because a friend's home had recently been burglarized, per his own notes that were included in Louisville Metro Police's November report — "indicating that he wanted to buy an AR-15 for home defense, a use for which an AR-15 is particularly poorly suited for a novice shooter," the original complaint states.

When that lawsuit was filed, the attorneys held a press conference, and Hans Poppe of Poppe Law Firm said he would be filing a companion suit before the one-year statute of limitations was up.

During that press conference, Poppe said, "This legal action targets the retail of the assault weapon, highlighting the urgent need for responsible measures in gun stores."

The new suit, filed by Poppe on Monday, includes video screenshots of a River City Firearms employee "instructing Sturgeon how to use the AR-15-style rifle at the time of sale," as well as Sturgeon "incorrectly holding" the accessories.

The suit furthers the allegations in the January complaint by alleging that Magpul and RSR "failed to enact reasonable safeguards on the sale of accessories that they know increase a firearm's lethality."

Thomas Law Offices filed an amended complaint on Monday to include the new plaintiffs, Magpul and RSR Group. It alleges the same claims as the complaint filed by Poppe.

There is a federal law that impacts lawsuits against the gun industry.

President George W. Bush signed the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act in 2005. The law gives the gun industry immunity if their gun is used in a crime. (Kentucky had a similar law enacted in 1988. The state gun immunity law was deemed unconstitutional in 1991, but the federal law takes precedence.)

There are exceptions to the 2005 law, though, including negligence on the part of a seller, which is what this suit, and the one filed in January, alleges.

The suit seeks compensatory and punitive damages against all defendants and loss of spousal consortium on behalf of Maryanne Elliott and Michael Eckert.

Chris brown to quavo screwin' my exes doesn't make us equal.

Chris Brown just released the deluxe edition to his "11:11" album ... and he's doubling down on his beef with Quavo ... with a new fiery shot about the women they've both banged.

On the song "Freak," CB snaps on Quavo with clever punch lines over a super-charged version of Nelly 's "Air Force Ones" ... "F****** my old bitches ain't gone make us equal/Sipping that 1942 cause I don't do no Cuervo [Quavo]/Freak bitch she like Casamigos. not the Migos."

Quavo and CB's ex-GF Karrueche Tran have been suspected of casual dating for years -- a clear trigger for the R&B superstar, despite having broken up with the "Claws" actress since 2015. We've seen Chris and Quavo bristle over this in the past, but not as overtly as this.

If you recall, Chris reignited the feud in January when he happened to be seated next to Quavo at a Paris Fashion Week show -- and clarified to the public he didn't approve of the move.

"Freak" also features Lil Wayne , Joyner Lucas and Tee Grizzley ... Chris' issues with Quavo are his own, however.
