"'La La Blues,' written by one of our favorites, Pokey LaFarge, is absolutely the most fun you can have without getting into (too much) trouble,” says Appalachian Road Show fiddler Jim VanCleve. "It will, guaranteed, put a great big smile on your face and has been an instant sing-a-long showstopper for the Appalachian Road Show.”
