Another national treasure. RIP Jerry Jeff
Saw Jerry Jeff Walker in concert 3 times. so fun.
Summer in Kentucky: Wheeler Walker Jr TRUST ME
London Homesick Blues! It's a Gary P Nunn song that Jerry Jeff has covered
You need to get a listen to Gary P Nunn's " London homesick blues"
Love this song. I'm in Oklahoma and always loved this. It seems like Ray Wiley Hubbard or Gary P Nunn one of them whichever wrote it lived in Oklahoma at one time.
Haven’t heard this one in forever! I don’t ever remember hearing it on the radio, but live out in the clubs of my misspent youth. Thanks Don!
Back in my younger days, I went to a lot of country music concerts. JJW's were always the best!!! Try the song: Pissin' in the Wind'. RIP JJW.
I think RWH is must get tired of getting requests for this song every night. He once said if you are gonna write a hit song, make sure it’s something you don’t mind playing for the next 40 years.
As a fella who was born straight into an Oklahoma h*onkytonk by a mother who drank a fifth of whiskey daily while managing the bar when she wasn't go-go dancing, I approve of this message. The baby shower was on the pool table, shot glasses were my Legos, and ol' Hank did my lullabies. All in all, I think I turned out alright :-) Another ode to my unique upbringing that I recommend is "Long Line of Losers" by Kevin Fowler...not for the faint of heart!
Now I know why you like Jason Eady's "OK Whiskey" which by the way when you suggested it I thought it meant okay whiskey didn't know it was Oklahoma whiskey until after I listened. Also the Kevin Fowler suggestion is a good one.
@David Emswiler Hi Dave, I hope you're taking it easy. I listened to both Ted Shahan and David Landua( who is David Landau on YT) while I liked both I preferred Red. The song I liked the best wasn't either one of the 2 you mentioned but a song called "Water Bill". However, I did not like either one ad much as Jason, Courtney, or Jaime. I've really fallen for these three and have been listening to a lot of their stuff. One question what would you recommend by Django Walker? I saw him on the JJW tribute concert and know he is friends and co-writes some with William Beckman, the young man I mention to you or Christine about a month ago. Definitely am going to check out Django and see how much of JJW's talent got passed down. Anyway continue your coalescence and hopefully you'll get some good news from Doc pretty soon.
@@mikebarnett9012 Appreciate your words of sympathy...unfortunately living out in the sticks means a long drive and a long wait for me to see a specialist. :-( I agree with Red being more my style than his brother, but my son prefers him so maybe its a generational thing? I requested Django Walker awhile back during football season..."Texas Longhorn" gets alot of play around that time! I haven't really kept up with his latest music, but "Young enough to Run" was a decent song. I won't compare him to his dad because that seems almost mean. :-) William Beckmann has alot of good stand-outs, but the one on my playlist is "Bourbon Whiskey". A new artist (to me) that I've been listening to alot of lately is Emily Nenni. Don't know much about her, but a couple songs I'd recommend are "Long Game" and "If this is Just a Game". Take care.
@@davidemswiler4351 Thanks for the recommendations I will definitely check out Emily and the Django. "Bourbon Whiskey" is my favorite Beckman song to but I also like "Danced All Night Long" for the Tex-Mex influence and another similar to Bourbon called " In The Dark". Also looking forward to your Flatland Cavalry request for a "A Life Where We Work Out" to come up. I know Don's List is looong but feel like it has been about 11/2 months since you mentioned it to me and I feel like Don generally has about a 2 month turnaround. You and the Mrs. take care and try to stay cool. It's ' hotter than the hinges hangin' on the gates of he!!' here in Ga.
Hi Don, an iconic song on the Alt. Country scene. You are right it is a Ray Wylie Hubbard song , however, Jerry Jeff recorded it first so I'm not sure you would call it a cover. Legend has it that Ray Wylie wrote it backstage in about 10 minutes in between sets. Another good Jerry Jeff song you should look into is "Viva Lukenbach" which kinda explains the history of Lukenbach. Anyway this was a fun one today and I hope the rest of everyone's weekend continues to be so.----#UTRCM
Correction it was "Screw You, We're From Texas" he wrote backstage in between sets.
I appreciate that you correct yourself my friend!
#UTRCM
That's a good one! I hadn't JJ's version (I think Bobby Bare did it too), but I think the world of JJ and Ray Wylie. Great reaction Don, thanks again, and thanks to David for the request. Also I'll second Mike's request for Viva Lukenbach --- it's a good one!
If you can give a listen to Ray's version.
It's a funny song, but he's got so many others, like 'Jaded Lover,' 'Pissin' in the Wind,' and 'Gringo in Belize.'
So well
So well
So well
❤️ RWH
Default RWH tune. He didn't think much of it. Jerry called him and asked if he could record it. Ray said sure but it's no good. A few months later and Ray begins to really like the song every 6 months when the royalty checks come in he liked it even more!
Definitely, not default
The album version starts with JJW (Maybe a band member) saying "This is a song by Ray Wylie Hubbard!"
What a song and Don believe it it's still playing on the radio here in West Virginia, and it is this version of course,u have a great day Don and all the listeners ect,I give this song a 9.9 if u ask me, play more like it all the time 👍💯🏆
Huge, long time fan of Jerry Jeff Walker!
I think Ray had hit the wall with the song and Gary P Nunn wrote the last verse.
No it isn't
Morning Don assume the position MF heard the lawwdogs say, at my wedding the dude marring us told me and my bestman to turn and face the wall before my sweety walked down the aisle, naturally we assumed the position. My friends and family had a good laugh, Tracy's side not so much. be safe ... HAKAD
Yes it a Ray Wilie Hubbard cover. The story is that Ray Jerry Jeff and a few other song writers were in Clovis New Mexico jamming and it was Ray's turn to get beer. The re were two bars a hippie bar and a redneck bar and they would have fit in better in the hippie bar but the redneck bar was a closer walk. Ray goes to the redneck bar to get off sales and the rednecks wanted to kick his ass. There was a redneck drinking with his momma and she said you want my boy to kick your ass hippie? When he got back with the beer out came the song. It is a parody of Oakie many people don't get it.
This is the version I've heard all of my life and the one that's in my playlist.....not sure if I've heard Rays version though
Gotta hand it to you Don!
Perfect Beer Drinkin Song for the Saturday before Dad’s day.
Wishing all a good day and me I am going to listen again and knock the suds off of a cool one!

@Clifford Barnes I haven't seen you in comments n the last couple of days and today Don did your request. Man what a powerful song. Anyway I hope things are o.k. with you my friend and thanks for introducing me to this Waylon song I had never heard before. #UTRCM
@@mikebarnett9012 Thanks my friend. I am doing well. Things have just been a litlle crazy work wise.
I am really pleased that you enjoyed the song as I thought of you when I requested it. You and I seem to be on the same wavelength most of the time.
Thanks for the messaage!
#UTRCM
@@cliffordbarnes1631 As I told Don the other day I seem to have inherited the "worry" gene from my mom. It didn't really manifest when I was younger but as me my family and friends have gotten older it seems to rear up quite a lot. Hopefully, your work schedule will ease up and I can look forward to your comments again.#UTRCM
@@mikebarnett9012 Indeed my friend and thanks! It is nice to be worried about from time to time!
Your triping
For some reason I always associated this song with David Allan Coe, go figure
it is very David sounding aint it lol
Same here. Just sounds like it would be DAC, doesn't it? I'm guessing I heard him do a rendition back in the day.
I have to admit that I've never heard of Ray Wylie Hubbard, so this may be the only song he's written that I've heard of and I would have bet it was written by David Allan Coe. You learn something new every day.
RWH is an og of red dirt country. He’s got a huge catalog. Well worth checking out. He’s as much of a poet as a song writer
Ray wrote this in his early 20s I think. In the last 20 years RWH has written a ton of good songs. Deep rabbit hole...like another said he is a poet.
For your own entertainment Don,look up Ray Wylie Redneck Mother story at Jerry Jeff 70 birthday bash here on TH-cam It is hilarious
I did go find this it was very entertaining especially the looks and I interplay between Jerry Jeff and Ray Wylie!
