I love Johnny Cash, especially this song, the lyrics were written by Irish band called U2, it was one of the few last songs Johnny Cash recorded. I keep on replaying it :)

David Allen Coe. If he ain't country.....! :wink:
Exploring the outlaw branch of American country music, David Allan Coe is #12 in a look by film star Dennis Hopper at the dozen most badass performers. That same dozen are some of the top-selling performers with careers enduring unimaginable travails. They are the proven goods, the real freaking McCoy.
This one's long at nearly 43 minutes, not all that great fidelity, but riddled with terrific quotes tying together a magnificent look at a global phenomenon.

I really like Trace Adkins' voice but his songs/videos are shallow (for me). Even though I'd love to explore more modern country music, the best story-telling is in the "earlier" songs, at least that's how I feel :)

Anybody who can play like she does --- singer or not --- deserves a very loud round of applause. All this talk about early performers rouses the true history of what was once called Country & Western, enveloping Western Swing with people like Bob Wills (royalty!) or the very early superstars of true rock-solid country, Maybelle Carter and her daughters.
This is a song I hope every last one of us holds dear to our hearts.
Recorded in 1927, a full 90 years ago, using primitive acoustic microphones which meant EVERYBODY had to play loud to be heard at all. Imagine the strain on Maybelle playing her 1926 guitar for all it was worth....

U'2? I can honestly say I've never heard their music, and yes, I've heard of them, just never listened.
I kind of tuned out in the 80s because I was too busy with owning my own business's, then moved to a remote area of the Sierra Nevada mountains where the radio signal was sporadic at best.
Yeah, I kind of missed a lot of good music over the last three decades, but then, rap became the predominant sound over the airwaves so I figured I wasn't missing much.

Neither can most people of intellect. Funny how the connection between the degradation of innercity coincides with the collapse of music.
In other words, society reversed to its most rudimentary of properties of dog eat dog, and music followed suit to it's most basic of principles, "the rhythmic beat."
Music is all about numerical complexities commingling in a creative outcome, while rap is as basic as it gets, ABC, 123, thump.

Yeah, back then a new TV was like buying a new car today, and yes our's too was a hand me down on its last leg and probably cost $500.0 new in the 40s.
Even though the transmitter was only 10 miles away, the signal was crap because they were only trying to reach the city proper, and didn't care about the outskirts of town.
But oddly enough we could get San Francisco better at times, and the signal still sucked.

Yep, I remember the neighbors nearly getting a divorce over it, she demanded one, as well as air conditioning.
I remember the arguments today, 5 houses down and across the street, and I heard, "I'm only a NASA engineer, I'm expendable, they could cut my position at anytime, and here you want to live like a God damn Queen"?
They stayed together and she got her TV and air, I think the compromise was his wanting a son, which he got.
Yeah, those were luxuries most people only dreamed of.
I grew up without it and Sacto. had some miserably hot nights in the summer, dad finally got air conditioning 30 years after I moved out, he hated the idea of air, never even bought a car with it, just from another era.
You guys are funny, we didn't own a colour TV until 2001 (shared with 10 other families), our toilet was 8 metres from the house and we had only one electrical outlet for the whole village, we shared :)

Thanks for putting things in perspective. Your lifestyle is something today's generation could never begin to imagine.
What you lived through makes people appreciate the little things in life, like a homeless man getting quality shoes, something everyone takes for granted.
I know what it's like to live a bare essentials life, did it for years in sacrifice for a better life one day, but today kids in the US can't even imagine a life without a phone, let alone electricity.
I wish we could ship all of these kids to 3rd world countries for a year.

Honestly, I didn't feel like we lived a 3'rd world type of lifestyle, people worked very hard but were happy. Elders are taken care of, youth get university degrees, some after working hard get to study abroad. We didn't have a telephone until 2007, "snail mail" and hellicopter was enough.

Many of us would thrive under such a lifestyle, kids should be raised in this way so as to appreciate modern life, but when one is born with a gold spoon in hand, they never really know struggle.
About all they ever experience is a brief power outage and complete boredom awaiting its return.

Sounds like my first 10 years of life. Toilet way out back, one electrical outlet for the house, and a hand pump at the kitchen sink. We had to heat the water on a woodstove, there was always hot water on the back of the stove. Mom liked her tea and dad like his coffee. We did have two fireplaces in the old farm house for heat in the winter.
I now live about 75 miles from that old farm house.

Listening all morning to Kozaks' choir, here is a sample with English subtitles.
Kozaki or Kozaks are my culture, we are all across Ukraine and Russia, many of us live in Sibir' (Siberia). The songs are usually about battles, love, drinking, war and beautiful women.
In case you're wondering about what they're wearing.. The hats are made from sheep fur, the old fashioned musket bullets line their chest and a small type of shashka (dagger at the waist), we have other shashkas (long sword) that are either straight or curved.

Eddie Van Halen rightly said back in 1988 that without the legendary guitarist and guitar innovator Les Paul, "I couldn't do half the things I can do on a guitar." (Van Halen is up there in what fans overzealously call "guitar god" territory. He's earned it.)
So take this, guitar fans. Every last toe-tappin ', foot-stompin', air-guitarin' lick of it. YOWZA!
Here is a fantastic all-star line-up of guitar-royalty themselves, all in tribute to Les Paul --- and here's a splendid example of Paul doing some heavy-duty rock licks in the bargain!

This one's from 1971, a song I hadn't heard since then, from a long-forgotten rock band called Wishbone Ash. The title's a bit risque --- "Jail Bait" --- but musicianship is great and this superb, tight band is a happy return to those 1960s "British Invasion" days, before they all started copying each other (the state of rock today).

I remember this time well, living in Ca Valley during this period, this slang/lingo, Slingo was on everybody's lips, be it kids doing it for who knows why, or us adults because it was irritating and a way of making fun of ignorant little rich bitches in Beverly Hills, which is kind of where this really took off.
I remember hearing it got its roots from so-called NY Elite bitches and their snobby offspring spoiled lot living in Beverly Hills/Hollywood infected the locals and the rest is history.
They got slammed socially thanks to this song which focused attention on the spoiled and even speech clinics were set up to save these girls from themselves, of course, this was to milk mommy of her treasures, she happily paid because their daughters were a blight in their social circles.
In fact, now that I think about it, this song focusing on the issue, may have been the trigger that ended Valle Girl speak.

Taking the thread topic seriously, I'll confess to liking Antighost, this group of fledgling emo kids from Michigan. I even went to see them, fun show. This tune, House of Farms, has some lovely, sinister lyrics. But I don't know if they can play this particular song anymore, as they have had a recent lineup change.

They sound honest and authentic.

I watched this as a kid, and was totally in love with her. Couldn't completely understand the lyrics, but figured out it was something about her misbehaviour. Because of her pronunciation, I always thought that "really" is actually "wreally".

They are talented, though, not my kind of music, they will do well in the coming years.

Absolutely. They remind me of when I was really young...
Beautiful song, from one of the greatest bands ever.

When I was young and the world belonged to me,
I thought that love meant pain and jealousy.
It was a cross on my shoulder.
Oh, Lord, now I feel so much older.
Mmm. Mmm.
Time had a way of making me see my lonely life has taken its toll on me.
Now, I feel the emptiness and I don't wanna live like this.
Now, I've heard stories, I've heard songs telling me believe my heart.
Don't wait too long with words that don't ring true until there was you.
Never will I lose this heart's desire.
Ever will I feel our love's fire only when I know
That you'll be mine until the end of time.

Tom Dooley. All time great Ballad

A song appropriate for our predicament.

From the time when music existed.

I listen to recorded books mostly. I no longer enjoy reading.
Musically I despise popular music. Rap is just awwwful. I have always liked classical music but needed some change. I discovered Native American flute music.

The Cheyenne were beautiful flute players.
Pure cuteness.

Actually, if they didn't scream into the mic, I'd like the song. They remind me of Panic at the Disco.
Definitely not my generation...
Blackberry Smoke - One Horse Town
That voice, forget about Taylor Swift.
Sometimes it depends on the weather. :smile:
Rare to see female guitarists that are original.
I don't watch the today's Arthur Godfrey's Talent Scouts, but my brother does and he sent me this and said I might like it. I did, a lot. 'course that don't mean it'll be everybody's treasure...
A great tenor on lead with beautiful harmonies and it was the first song that we (me and the future wife on first date) heard together. Played it on every anniversary.
Many moons ago me and the Msus had the absolute pleasure to see Doc and his son perform in a small local venue. His guitar playing is 2nd to none. JMO, but believe Mr Gershwin would surely enjoy Doc's rendition.
Cool! :thumbup:
There was a little dive in Coloma Ca I used to hit, have a beer with the locals, only had room for 15 people.
This is the location where gold was discovered, so word got out to the blue grass community and once a week a really popular band would show up unannounced and the place would explode, Not the whole band, just the main players. I always got a front seat 3' from the band.
We had Marshal Tucker show up, Elvin Bishop and a myriad of others, but eventually the fire marshal shut it down when it got too popular, almost two years worth.
That was 3o years ago.
Sad news in the world of music. Dusty Hill a founding member of ZZ Top has died. A great band with a you'll never forget us persona who wrote and recorded some great songs.

I miss 80s music. Oh, and that driving was horrendous. :lol: :lol: :lol:
Alright everybody a sing-a-long.
I remember the first time I heard this song. It made my mother LOL to herself trying to sing it.
