They were fantastic !
Jerry Reed was a wild one for sure, and Glenn was awesome.
Thanks for sharing.
fantastic choice !!! JLH is one the greatest of all times... innovator and trend setter.
What a great way to start the weekend !
THANKS Badeye !
Yep he was only 29 had 35 singles mostly hits
His down fall - alcohol and prescription drugs - pretty much the same nemesis of many stars today !
Died of a heart attack - exasperated by the pills and booze - such a shame, such a waste of a talented life
I do like his songs though - he was very creative.
Good one Bill !
Reminds me a bit of a mix between the Central Scrutinizer from Joe's Garage and the I, Robot movie.
Still giggling about the " OH, God! " part. very clever of you!!
Great to have you back man !! Glad Dondra is getting healthier and back to being herself.
Lastly, thanks for all your kind words of encouragement.
Jim
Thank You
TF
Phenomenal playing.
I cannot fathom how many hours of practice that was required for that performance..
I don’t even know how he remembers all of the movements and notes, never mind the flawless execution
I sure wish I could make my 12er sound like that!
Thanks for the magnificent beginning to flying fingers, it was awesome!
Jim
Here is my version of this song.
I'm not a singer and barely a player - but I like the story. Hope you like it.
Holy crap BGD
They are just excellent !
Guitar is incredible, but rest of players are not far behind. It is a fantastic melding of musical talent and performing. The ability to inject just the perfect amount of each instrument, with precise fusion, and at exactly the right moment is superlative! The voice of the singer reminds me of Bonnie Raitt.
Thanks for sharing this --- I REALLY enjoyed this ! They have a bunch of other great songs as well.
Great job BGD - looking forward to your next find ! ![]()

Nicely done!

Not mention the rain Amy, up here in NYS. ! I have had six softball games cancelled so far.... we have not played even one on our schedule yet.
Forecast for today and tomorrow - rain 100% chance !
We are going to have a lot of flowers in May if the old adage is true ![]()
I'm ready for warm and sunny!!!:),
I'm going to do that one day every four years -feb 29th leap year - call it " Misfit Maestros" starring those of us ( well that's actually just me) who can't really play or sing, but do it any way.

I was pretty close - great minds think alike !

I think Freddy Mercury and Frank Zappa were way a head of their time - incredible ingenuity and not afraid to be different.
Thanks for sharing!

I deleted the old posts on this song- thought it would be better for all.
This is my final rendition of the lyrics and chords. ( I hope):)
Thanks for the suggestions from several of you.
Country SInger Blues
[Em] I’m a country singer, but I’m [A7]stuck in the blues
[Em] going nowhere, got [A7] nothing to lose
[Em] got no money , I've [A7] ruined all my plans
[B7] My only lovin’ comes from[c9] one night [B7] stands
[Em] No options left for [A7] me to choose
[Em] don’t know what I’m [A7] gonna do
[Em] seems my dreams are [A7] finally through
[B7] I’m just a country singer
[A7] playing the [Em] blues
[Em] I’m a country singer, but I’m [A7]stuck in the blues
[Em] wife called last night to [A7] give me the news
[Em] found a new lover while I [A7] was away
[B7]She took all my money, but she [c9] left me heart[B7]ache
[Em] got me some whiskey and [A7] new tattoos
[Em]Feels like all hell is [A7] breaking loose
[Em]I’d keep trying but [A7] what’s the use
[B7] I’m just a country singer
[A7] playing the [Em] blues
Chorus
[A7] I feel so stranded, I’m all alone
[Em] call up my friends, they hang up the phone
[A7] look in the mirror, hate what I see
[B7]can’t remember what’s it’s [C9]like to be [B7]me
[A7] hard to tell lies, from the truth
[Em] I surely know I’ve paid my dues
[A7] But in the end there is no excuse
I’m [B7]just a [country singer
[C7] play ay [B7] aying ing ]my [Em] blues
[Em] I’m a country singer, but I’m [A7]stuck in the blues
[Em] Came from Georgia, got me[A7] southern roots
[Em] chew my t’bacco , I [A7] spit the juice
[B7] I’ve got a cowboy hat , and [c9]worn out [B7] boots
[Em] doing all the right things, [A7] ain't no use
[Em]tried calling Nashville , not [A7] getting through
[Em] guess it's time that I [A7] faced the truth
[B7] I’m just a country singer
[A7] playing my [Em] blues
Chorus
[A7] I feel so stranded, I’m all alone
[Em] call up my friends, they hang up the phone
[A7] look in the mirror, hate what I see

[A7] hard to tell lies, from the truth
[Em] I surely know I’ve paid my dues
[A7] But in the end there is no excuse
I’m [B7]just a country singer
[c9] play ay [B7] aying ing my [Em] blues
Yeah,[B7] in the end I've got no excuse
I’m just a [Em] country singer
[A7] playing my [Em] blues
Beautiful family
Good luck with the move.
I think Amy has a good point - I could not imagine moving my daughters as teens - but it does have some valuable life lessons in it.
Thanks for sharing and best wishes !
Jim
He is one of the best ever on AI.
The reason he is in such demand is bc he is so freaking talented!!!
On a side note..... BEAMER - are you ever going to tell us the answer to the Freddy Mercury line on the other post ? ![]()
Phill,
Both excellent renditions !!
I like the Maggie song the best.
I grew up very poor and know the feelings associated with that. My dad died when I was 8 months old - leaving my mother with ten kids.
Somehow my mother got us through and we all turned out pretty damned well.
reminds of the quote - " the things you take for granted, someone else is praying for'
Thanks for sharing - loved 'em both
JIm
WOW !!!!
that is a testament to great vocal ability
Thanks for sharing that Amy - very,very good
yessirreeee Cowboys and girls ! Buffalo chips are just that.
Early settlers of the plains used then for fuel for fires, as well as an early version of frisbees for he kids to play with.
with herds of over 1,000 buffalo roaming , they were pretty plentiful.
The Buffalo Chip Campground is an event venue in Buffalo Chip, South Dakota, USA. It is a gathering place for motorcycle enthusiasts and music festival visitors each year, and has been since being founded in 1981.
Hence the guitar 35 year anniversary
R.I.P. Merle
a great, great, talent!!!!
May be the best country singer ever......
"better with a joint than with a drink" ![]()
He lived virtually every country song.
He told his family that he was going to die on his birthday, and he did.
God bless him
Graham
Congratulations !!!
