  • Here’s an old tune that my cousin inspired me to re-learn after we jammed together last month.
    Some folks love this song, others not so much. Always a sucker for a good story, I am in the "love it" camp.
    Well, yesterday my wife left me home alone completely unsupervised. So I broke out the old green screen and recording equipment, and let it rip!
    Worth noting that in an interview back in 2004, songwriter Jerry Jeff Walker talked about what inspired this song:
    “I’d been reading a lot of Dylan Thomas, and I was really into the concept of internal rhyme. I just had my guitar, a yellow pad, and the memories of guys I’d met in drunk tanks and on the street-one gentle old man in particular. The rest of the country was listening to the Beatles, and I was writing a six-eight waltz about an old man and hope. It was a love song."
    Enjoy and thanks for watching.

    We had a dog who liked to jump; we named him Mr. Bojangles. Always loved this song. :)
