What Are You Listening To - May, 2024

[kcghost]

There is only one Hank WIlliams, and it is senior. Junior had a helluva career, but he is no match for his Pappy.

"I have the invitation that you sent me
You wanted me to see you change your name
I couldn't stand to see you wed another
But dear, I hope you're happy just the same

Wedding bells are ringing in the chapel
That should be ringing out for you and me
Down the aisle with someone else you're walking
Those wedding bells will never ring for me"

5/5

A post last week by @judcole regards Dave Brubeck reminded me of my long lost Take Five album which I loaned out years ago & never saw again..

So, I ordered it on CD and it arrived today and wow, I'd forgotten how lovely and warm his sounds are when played on a decent set up.

Happy days.

Jay.

I really think a lot of Tanya Tucker. An underrated singer that took 50 years to get her into the Country Music Hall of Fame. I know she was something of "wild child" when she was younger. She didn't have many number 1 hit records but she has a string of top ten's that could choke a horse. The CMHoF can make people wait forever but DAMN!! She is still active today at 66 and still packing them in,

5/5

"Delta Dawn, what's that flower you have on
Could it be a faded rose from days gone by?
And did I hear you say, he was a-meeting you here today
To take you to his mansion in the sky?

She's 41 and her daddy still calls her baby
All the folks around Brownsville say she's crazy
'Cause she walks downtown with a suitcase in her hand
Looking for a mysterious dark-haired man"

Oh, I did forget the short-lived affair she had with Glen Campbell. She turned him every which way but loose,

Whoa, you don't get something for nothing
You can't have freedom for free
You won't get wise with the sleep still in your eyes
No matter what your dream might be
