Preacher Jack's 69th birthday....gotta love it!!!
Yet another amazing singer / artist.
@Meerkat I’m a Joe Cocker fan also… Some may disagree but I think no one ever sang “Whiter Shade of Pale” better than Joe….
Also, my favorite rendition of “Will the Circle be Unbroken” is the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band 3 album set…
I was lucky enough to preform with 3 of the people who played on the NGDB album. I was also lucky enough to get to sit and pick with a half dozen more…
Can you hear June doing the harmony in the first verse? And Rory Acuff singing the first chorus? I picked with Ricky S. when we were teenagers!
Vassar Clements be damned… Mark O’Conner was the best fiddle player the 20th century ever produced. But… Vassar was pretty good, Better than all the rest! These two set fiddle playing to standard not reached in the 40 years since.
I love a cappella music or added with a few acoustic instruments.

This is just one example of the work of Gillian Welch… The 3 women… Emmylou Harris, Gillian Welch and Alison Krauss… Heaven through song…
Gillian is an incredible alto, most folks don’t recognize it but Gillian was the star of this song… IMHO.
A much younger Preacher Jack!! Jack rocks!!
I could listen to the OLD Beatles all night....

You know when you start listening to stuff like this, you have been up waaaaay to late and you and Mr. Jack Daniels need to go to bed!!
I'm singing the blues this week, so looks like it is time for some tears in my bloody beers,some good ol Vitamin B. Or if I get really brave maybe Vitamin V.

No videos to share, but last night wife and were treated for her 13th anniversary working for her boss (shes a nanny). The boss took us out for dinner and a concert along with 4 kids. Wife and I had 6th row seats for Journey and Def Leppard. 3 full hours of good loud rock and roll. Bosses son(14yo) had an awesome time. The concert was his idea and insisted my wife go along.
Down side to this, I got in bed about 1 and back up at 5 to go to work. I've been dragging all day. LOL
