Song Review: Molly Tuttle & Golden Highway - “San Joaquin” (Live in Studio)
Making their bluegrass instruments mimic a train, Molly Tuttle & Golden Highway are heading down the line to sell some weed in “San Joaquin.”
A Tuttle/Ketch Secor co-write, the high-test track follows “El Dorado” and “Next Rodeo” from City of Gold, out July 21.
The track burns down the track in three minutes, leaving just enough time for solos from Tuttle’s axe, Bronwyn Keith-Hynes’ fiddle, Dominick Leslie’s mandolin, Kyle Tuttle’s banjo and Shelby Means’ upright bass as Tuttle sings the smuggler’s story:
Riding on the San Joaquin/bringing in some Humboldt green … /when I get to Richmond I’ll be gold/soon as this suitcase is sold/’til then I’m rolling down the line/just looking for the next high time/riding on the San Joaquin
“San Joaquin” is not a lyrical masterpiece. But the music is mighty.

It has been one of those great California dreams — a train whisking travelers from San Francisco to Los Angeles in two hours and 40 minutes. The trains would go faster than a speeding bullet — 220 mph. Just like trains in advanced countries in Europe or Asia. Even Uzbekistan has high-speed rail.
But it is only a California dream.
The Chronicle's Carl Nolte decided to take a ride on California's current Central Valley train service. Even after a few paragraphs noting the drawback, he was still keeping pretty positive.
But they’re slow.
The passenger trains have to share the single track BNSF rail line with freight trains — and there are plenty of them. There are also hundreds of highway and road crossings. After two hours and 40 minutes, when the dreamers promised the high-speed train would be in Los Angeles, the slow-speed train is only just south of Stockton.
Nolte was never going to make to Los Angeles because the San Jaoquins trains only go as far as Bakersfield.
The valley once had faster rail service. The Santa Fe railroad advertised a train called the Golden Gate which would “whiz through the beautiful San Joaquin Valley” between San Francisco and Bakersfield in six hours flat — an hour faster than the modern San Joaquin trains.
That was in 1941.

LionHearted Warrior
Tumblr media
(Biography about Antonio Luna y de San Pedro Novicio Ancheta)
A heroic Filipino warrior who failed to preserve his homeland. He's as courageous as a lion, never backing down in battle and eager to die for his nation yet he also has a golden heart. He extended his wings and flew high, the small chick fighting off a swarm of eagles until his wing was worn out and he fell. The freedom he desired vanished like a thin wind on a sandy shore.
 Antonio Luna y de San Pedro Novicio Ancheta, also known as General Luna, is a Filipino journalist, musician, pharmacist, chemist, and, most notably, a general in the battle for Philippine independence from the United States. He was born in the Binondo area of Manila, Philippines, on October 29, 1866. The youngest of seven children of Joaquín Luna from Badoc and Spanish mestiza Laureana Novicio-Ancheta from Luna, La Union, a former Namacpacan. Jaoquin worked as a traveling salesperson for the government-run tobacco monopoly, which began in 1782.
After only fifteen years of high school at the Ateneo de Manila, he has already demonstrated remarkable study abilities from childhood. Then, having decided on pharmacy as a specialty, Luna flew to Spain to study it at the University of Barcelona, and after earning a Bachelor's degree, he traveled to Madrid to continue his education and receive a doctorate.
General Luna swept into the revolution when he returned to the Philippines in 1894 and became the senior chemist of Manila's Municipal Laboratory, he surged into the revolution. He and his brother Juan formed the Sala de Armas, a fencing society, in the capital. It is the start of his legacy, of him being the most notable general in the history of the Philippines against American colonization. 
On February 23, he resigned when troops from Cavite refused to obey his plans to win the war against America, which President Aguinaldo accepted even though he’s frustrated knowing that Luna is really a big help for the Philippines to win. But the next 3 weeks came out bad for the Philippines, the reason why Aguinaldo persuaded Luna to come back and made him the commander-in-chief.
Despite being a successful and excellent general, Luna's fame was growing, and he was becoming increasingly suspicious of it. President Aguinaldo accused him of high treason. On June 5, 1899, Luna traveled to the government offices alone to talk with President Aguinaldo, but was greeted there by one of his old rivals, a man he had previously disarmed for cowardice, who informed him that the meeting had been canceled and that Aguinaldo had left town. Luna was stabbed in the head by the officer's bolo, and Cavite men mobbed the injured general, stabbing him. Luna pulled out his handgun and fired a shot, but he missed his assailants. He died when he was 32 years old.
While Aguinaldo's guards were assassinating his most capable general, the president was laying siege to General Venacio Concepcion's headquarters, a supporter of the dead general. This intra party conflict was a benefit to the Americans.
Luna "was the only commander the Filipino army had," according to General James F. Bell, and Aguinaldo's soldiers suffered terrible defeat after disastrous defeat in the aftermath of Antonio Luna's assassination. Before being taken by the Americans on March 23, 1901.
Heneral Luna is one of the most brilliant soldiers in Philippine history, demonstrating what a Filipino lionhearted warrior can achieve. In Philippine history, he is a legendary figure. Luna was a true gentleman and a true patriot, eager to fight and die for his nation.He may not have succeeded in gaining independence for his nation, but his death was not in vain. His death became the master key that opened the gates of principle, integrity, and, most importantly, Filipinos' inspiration to fight for independence and their nation.

NEW CANARY RELEASE Ebullient dance songs transplanted from the Golden Plain of eastern Anatolia to the San Jaoquin Valley of California. Research and notes by Harout Arakelian, an expert on 20th century Armenian musicians of the West Coast: Label owner, bandleader, and musician Oscar (nee Asadour) Kevorkian was born in Kharpert (aka Harput, in present-day Elâzığ Province, Turkey) in 1898. He arrived to the U.S. via Ellis Island in 1914 and settled in Fresno, California. (His sister and brother both settled in France.) In 1918, he married Araxie (Mary) Daorian with whom he had four children. After working a variety of jobs, he started the OK Taxi company in the late 20s and drove hearses for the West Side Undertakers and the Yost & Webb Mortuary. In 1936, he started working as a funeral director for Yost & Webb. (He and a partner eventually bought the company around 1949. It's still in operation.)
In 1929, Kevorkian and the clarinetist Mesrob Takakjian recorded four sides for the Columbia label in Los Angeles, and during the 1930s they and their cohorts were regular performers at Armenian gatherings and parties in the Fresno area. Around 1938, they recorded again for the independent Rec-Art label, which apparently inspired Kevorkian to establish his own label, perhaps as early as 1939. He initially named it OK Records, named like his cab company from his initials, later changing the label’s name to Kevorkian.
A significant and influential clarinetist, Mersob Takakjian was born in either 1894 or 1896 in Palu (less than 50 miles from Kharpert) and arrived in Providence, Rhode Island Oct. 15, 1912. Takakjian was among the first wave of Armenian performers to have made discs for Columbia in the mid-1910s and continued to record in the early 20s for M.G. Parsekian and Vartan Margosian’s independent labels.
In the mid-20s, Takakjian loaned his instrument (mouthpiece, reed, and all) to another musician, resulting in Takakjian's contracting tuberculosis. For his health, he relocated to Fresno in 1926, where he got work as a record-buyer for the Nishkian Phonograph Store and went into business with his younger brother Sarkis selling novelties and candy. He met Oscar Kevorkian with whom he collaborated on music for more than twenty years. He was among the musicians recorded by ethnomusicologist Sidney Robertson Cowell for the WPA, University of California, and Library of Congress in 1939.
On July 5, 1959 Oscar Kevorkian had a heart attack while playing cards at the Highland Club in Fresno. He was dead by the time he arrived at the hospital. Mesrob Takakjian survived until 1976. (A more complete life and times of Takakjian is currently in progress.)
The singers: Mary Keteian was born Nov. 17, 1925 to immigrant parents in Detroit. The family relocated to Fresno, where at the age of 22 she married Grkikor Grisha “Kirk” Khanzadian with whom she had seven children. In 1949, she sang in Achoude Arzouni’s fantasy opera “Shepherd’s Dream;” her recording with Kevorkian may have been made around the same time. Mike Krikorian was born in Fowler, California and relocated to Los Angeles, where he worked in the hotel business. He appears to have established the Yerchanig Records label in the early 1950s. Virginia Hampartzoomian was also born in Detroit to immigrant parents with whom she relocated to Fresno. She worked as a stenographer before marrying Jack Murachanian of Pasadena in 1951. She was a wedding singer and member of the Holy Trinity Church Choir in Pasadena.
