I’ve said it many times, but I like reflecting on the fact that Ricky makes me so very proud to an American. We are, maybe, the retched refuse of the world, but we know how to feel and how to ROCK. Long live the legacy of this most beautiful man and artist. He is an inspiration of the highest caliber!
I love the living you "i love you I love everything that you do I love everything thats you I love you, i love you What you do to purple and blue You flatter everything that's good I love you Petals stay on the flowers Through out the hours hot is hot and cold is cold God bless you God bless everything that you do God bless everything that's you God bless you Sha lalala lalala hmm mmmm mmm Petals stay on the flowers Throughout the hours Hot is hot And cold is cold Thank you for the living you Thank you for everything that you do Thank you for everything that's you Thank you for the living you"
Alav ha shalom!may you Rest in Peace and know how much you are LOVED!Your brother is a saint to help us to SEE you perform again!i am alive due your beauty in life & song!From the deep dank south of Alabam i treasure your music,voice & your original sound will carry us as we are so fortunate to have your talent to bring us joy!from an artist with mental difference & difficulty,i treasure all you gave and thank you for making 2of my dreams come true:to hear you with the NOMADS was pure bliss!
Pretty amazing the erickson family considered an recorded roky while in rusk with others helping. Could not image music without roky ericksons voice that cuts like nothing ever to hear ago.stands alone regardless 13th floor elevators or solo variations. Thanks!
I played this song for my mother on her death bed and for a woman who was like a mother to me years before. Thank you for the touching music and wild rock n' roll. Forever grateful
Beautiful song, as people have said. A question for any guitarists or other musicians out there- at 2:10(and other times) Roky plays an ethereal phrase, a weird little gem. What are the notes? And is it a phrase he conjures out of an unconventional tuning?

Put it all to rest Roky,and just look at the sky.
Beautiful song, as people have said.

Minor augmented 6? He's doing it throughout, though. Even at the very beginning. Can't say what the tuning/fingering is.
Tuned to A maybe? It's a light note. Weird tuning. It's either A or maybe D but played in lower keys
❤
Wonder why he never re-recorded this song.
totally
anyone here know the tab for this?
Microdot 😊
This doesn't sound at all like it's from 1999.
Recorded at Rusk mental hospital 1971.
