Another One Gone

I read a news report that stated David Allan Coe had passed on. I'm sure some might not remember him, but for those that embraced the music scene of Austin, and the outlaw brand of music, remember his take on the Steve Goodman song "You Never Even Called Me By My Name". 

Coe didn't fit the mold of Nashville at the time, but succeeded in a time when Disco didn't quite fit those that were raised in the country, and sought music that told the stories they were more familiar with. Truly an outlaw by any description, he never gave up on his music, and entertained in spite of how some might have viewed his life. He'll be missed for his added flavor to the long, varied menu called Country and Western.

Of Scotsmen and Heritage

The bagpipes are seldom spoken of in a positive way. Still, I like them and the music that's played on the odd instrument once made from the skin of a sheep. It's part of my heritage and I can feel my ancestors calling when I hear the songs.

Enjoy, or not.

I Think You Better Hold On

That Ain't The Way to Have Fun...Son

It's strange how some songs job memories. The first time I heard the following song, I wasn't quite old enough to drive legally; I was with my brothers and a cousin;  we were in my grandmother's 1952 mint condition Pontiac and at an A&W in Chickasha, Oklahoma.

Off across the hills, a storm was brewing; flashes of lightning too far away to hear thunder. The storm eventually arrived and chased us to my grandmother's house right before it arrived.

The next morning, I was surprised, since you could still kick dust. Rain didn't do much for the parched land.
