Phill,
Fabulous sound with guitar.... voice has a smattering of heartbreak in it... makes the listener hear your pain !
Just the simple words of the chorus... bitter tears, bitter tears - " shakes the soul "   the way you delivered it.

I can imagine you doing this on one of your weekend sets for an audience - and bringing them from a chattering crowd ... to stunned silence by the end of the song.... to a standing ovation !  I know I'd be up  and cheering !!  You know you got a winner of a song when the listeners are excited at the end of a sad song !

Excellent song, my friend - I think one of the best, if not the best I've heard here on chordie.  Probably why it took so long to put together.
It's going on my playlist !
Thanks so much.

I think I heard at least three songs that were hits later come from mutated versions of what was played in this song.
There are elements of the beginnings of a couple of Johnny Cash songs, the song from the movie ( Good bad , ugly)

Amazing - way ahead of their time.  I think he looks more like Buddy Holly than Woody Allen though .

Thanks for the introduction to some cool stuff.

Great stuff !

They are magnificent musicians each in their own right, but something special happens when they put their ego's aside and play and sing together for the love of their purpose.  Ya don't see that too often today.

Modern tech is fantastic, but the generations of today are getting robbed  of the opportunity to see great musicians blossom together.
Think about the old tours when musicians would get on a bus together, stay in motels, and travel across America to bring their talents to American stages in small venues - how about the tour that had, Dylan, Cash, Elvis, J.L. Lewis on it ?  Or  Ray Hubbard, Guy Clark, Townes Van Zandt, and Rodney Crowell ?   I am 100 % positive Badeye can tell of tours of Blues musicians as well that  toured together.   

There's a place, I think it's  Pawling NY  ( near woodstock) that there is now  a similar venue - its in a barn and musicians get together and perform for a small audience. Love to go there some night!

and as for the grim  reaper - F*** him !   As I said in my last song ( heaven's Door- Survivor),  - " I'm looking forward to getting old"   

Kenny Chesney had a great song  - ---> everybody wants to go to heaven, have a mansion above the clouds, everybody wants to go to heaven, but nobody wants to go  now !

Thanks Bill for reminding us all of how special music can be and how it touches us all in different ways. 
Thanks Doug as well, that was 24 minutes of heart warming !!
Keep the good stuff coming !!

Brian

Very nice song- I really like it.

Jan - your voice is killer, as I have said before.

Thanks for the listen !!

Jim

Thanks for the kindness.
Peatle- always nice to hear a song in different versions. Nice job!

Here is my soundcloud post of it -  keep in mind I am recording from a cheesy computer mic, I can't sing for crap, and my playing the guitar is quite limited - other than that it is OK I think !  
Hope you can listen long enough to get the message.

It's been great for me...only remorse I have is not enough time to play with it

last night on the TV show American Pickers - they found a lady whose husband had died years ago - but had played in a band - she was selling his stuff

One item Gretch Electric guitar   another was a an old Fender AMp

Long story short - she wanted a $1,000 for the pair........ they called their guitar guru to check on the price -     

guitar was valued at $ 5,000   Amp was at $ 8,000      I almost fell off the couch.

Incredible what's in some people's attic's and barns !

Enjoy your new amp !

only 50 made wow

Nice purchase !!  ENJOY
