Hi Alonzo another great job the lyrics to this song are just great especially GOOD MORNING AMERICA HOW ARE YOU DONT YOU KNOW ME IM YOUR NATIVE SON brings up the goosebumps great stuff Cheers Ray
Alonzo. Wonderful performance, wonderful song, wonderful production. I love the straight forward way you present this wonderful but overdone song. It brings it right back to life. And no way is the autoharp or its player dorky.
As a videographer of music I can appreciate the amount of work that went into this production. It can be done. And the performance is very well done too.
Another great tune my friend. Your version is best however. :o)
I thought it was Arlo Guthrie's tune. I'll have to listen to Steve Goodman. Thanks for the share. And I have to share this one with others. Great stuff!
Wow that is a spectacular performance: I think I might have to give up making videos Lol. I cannot keep up with the artistic works x 5***** times 8 = 40 xxx
Did you make it to OR? If not, hope you can sometime. We used to live in Chi and saw Steve sing it. Now Steve is becoming famous for GO CUBS GO! - fame often comes too late - but not for you and The Boys.
Chris, I did indeed make it to Oregon this summer, and played several times in Hood River. if you're interested, I'll be playing at the Trillium Cafe in HR around Christmastime. Details to follow. It's a mere 60 miles east o' Portland.
i feel a little beat up after all this rain over the weekend. my sister is trapped in her home from the heaviest rains that the chicagoland area has received ever, and that wasn't even anything compared to "ike". thanks for asking how America is this morning. we shall survive.
Alonzo, Your video & the performance is excellent. I really liked it. How do you spell multi-instrumentalist?

i like cousin pranzo he looks a lot younger than the rest of the family maybe he should find a band more his own age group.
PS very nice Alonzo

This video brought a broad smile to my face, Alonzo. You've taken the concept of one-man-band to a level never before imagined by mortal souls.

Well, Stevie Wonder has, maybe...or Todd Rundgren. But maybe they're immortal souls!
