Re: Road Tunes Reply #201 – February 22, 2020, 09:16:21 pm Jota,I've been a John Prine fan for a long time too. 'Hello In There' is one of of my favorites.I thought I'd add a tune from his dear friend and mentor.

Re: Road Tunes Reply #204 – April 07, 2020, 11:38:14 pm This seems the appropriate sub forum. John Prime passed away on Seven April from the virus. His songs always hit a point with me. ( I deleted the words “struck a note” though they are more appropriate). We have already lost a lot of stars from sports and the big lights. But this one hit me a little harder. But thanks to him I got my Hoochie Coochie girl and we built our selves a Home though it was in the country. Thanks John and goodbye and rest in peace 2 Likes

Re: Road Tunes Reply #206 – April 08, 2020, 03:00:57 pm Thanks for all of your great songs Mr. Prine. Gone, but never forgotten! ;'( BillA link below to Joan Baez singing one of them as a tribute to Prine when she learned he was hospitalized a week ago or so.https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=7&v=CJPvc5vvKY4&feature=emb_logo 4 Likes
Re: Road Tunes Reply #207 – April 16, 2020, 09:32:48 pm Another good one: #7 'Cockaigne'. "An imaginary land of luxury and idleness"."Big Rock Candy Mountain". Burl Ives is who I will always associate with this song from my childhood. Steve Goodman did a nice version much later.Big Rock Candy Mountain - Wikipediahttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=syrGdvyFvDI
Re: Road Tunes Reply #208 – April 18, 2020, 10:03:59 pm For all of the boondockers and back road travelers out there right now. A good, gentle tune! Gove Scrivernor is the "you can only take the music from one musician to the desert island with you" choice for me. Great voice, an excellent musician and interpreter.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cg4-bwmo2Zc 1 Likes

Re: Road Tunes Reply #212 – July 06, 2020, 02:23:25 pm Sadly, just heard of the passing of Charlie Daniels, a longtime favorite artist of mine. I started listening to him in the mid-Seventies. Not exactly politically correct these days but one of my favorites back in the day, and a great road tune!https://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/country-music-legend-charlie-daniels-dies-at-83https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EJrRwTTqm0o 3 Likes

Re: Road Tunes Reply #223 – June 02, 2021, 12:37:15 pm Hadn't heard this song in many years but heard it on the radio yesterday so now it's stuck in my head. I always liked it. Is it just me or was the 60's and 70's the best decades for music? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R5NdcWGrnjw 1 Likes
Re: Road Tunes Reply #224 – June 02, 2021, 01:45:29 pm "Is it just me or was the 60's and 70's the best decades for music? "My partner was a teen in the 50's. She is certain it was the best decade for music because of the folk revival and birth of rock and roll, which is reasonable, but... I have suggested many times that each generation feels that way about the music they grew up with, but she is unshaken in her certainty. As for me, I'm with you!Bill 1 Likes
