Its weird isn't it? How songs are directly linked to specific memories, specific times, and specific actions in our lives. I've got some that flash back to me on a regular basis and I can remember every detail of everything that was happening at a specific moment in time when that song was playing.

LOL, you must not have be as freaky as me. And yes, I do like Love Song better. Its actually one of my favorite songs.

Unfortunately I also know what it was referring to, and unfortunately I can definitely relate to it. Lesson learned, and glad I lived to learn from that lesson. I actually feel regret from those times in my life, I feel ashamed and embarrassed to talk to people that know that about me. I think its one of the reasons that I am such a hermit, I don't like to run into people from back in the day that I was involved with (which doesn't happen much, most of them are dead or in prison) but it still makes me uncomfortable and I don't know what to say when someone in the community comes up to me because I know in the back of my mind that they probably know through the grapevine about all of my past behaviors.

 

Eric Clapton : "Who is that guitar player?!?!?!"

Tom Dowd: "Its Skydog Allman"

 

Yup.

 

A male country artist needs to cover this song with an updated sound and it would be a hit I think. Jamey Johnson could do it well I think.

 

Dirty, gritty Southern rock. Love that piano, God bless Billy Powell.

 

I heard he got his own record label so he should be releasing new music sometime soon.

 

Did you listen to the song I posted?

 

Christmas album first then other tunes.

 

I did, one of my favorites!

 

Love that one too!

 

I love that demo version, love the feedback you year from a mic too close to an amp/speaker at the beginning. Good stuff.

I think they were in their prime at that point. Killer music, great writing, great picking and playing.

 

My God look at that crowd of people that flocked to see these guys, in another country, on another continent no less!! That's bad ****!!

And just listen to those screaming Gibsons! Steve Gaines!! Life cut waaaay too short.


f

I don't know much about guitars, but I know Steve Gaines and Gary Rossington are playing Les Paul Customs, but is that a Gibson Explorer that Allen Collins is playing?

 

Epic song, written from the heart, literally, about what was going on within the band at the time. That's where great music comes from.



"Don't stick them needles in your arms, just give me one more blow boy, I know, I know, I've been there before". "One little problem that confronts you, got a monkey on your back, just one more fix lord might do the trick, one hell of a price to get your kicks".

Doesn't get much more self professing and prophesying to other people out there than that. You can't blast out a better PSA than that. These guys had everything, money, big lifestyle, fame, and using was destroying all of that. Prolific stuff.

 

If you don't like me, brother, that's okay
I ain't gonna let it wreck my day
I keep stylin', smilin', handin' out the sunshine

 

Got no particular place to go
My Alpine's pumpin' some Motown soul
Rockin' to a Papa Was A Rollin' Stone

****, it feels good to be me
Fresh pair of kicks and my old blue jeans
I'll be alright
Rollin' these streets all summer long

 

As I stated on other platforms . . . Nothin' wrong with a good cover . . .

Uncle Kracker - Drift Away (video) album version …:

 

Buy an old drop top find a spot to pimp

 

Yeah...Kid Rock...you can call me Tex
Rollin sunset woman with a bottle of Becks
Seen a slimy in a vette, rolled down my glass
And said, Yeah this !#£^ fits right in your ***

 

Call me Hoss, I'm the Boss, with the sauce in the horse
No remorse for the sheriff, in his eye I ain't right
I'm gonna paint his town red, and paint his wife white HUH

 

Catching Walleye from the dock
Watching the waves roll off the rocks
She'll forever hold a spot inside my soul
We'd blister in the sun
We couldn't wait for night to come
To hit that sand and play some rock and roll
