Mickey passed away at only 62 yrs old. Check out Michey's last performance. He died of lung cancer. A very painful was to go. He is wearing oxygen tubing and at one time, he pulled the tubing off and said, that noise is driving me nuts. The first song he does at that time, was "down and dirty" a blues song. I never heard it before and has become one of my fav. songs by him. bless you Duke..
Thank you for the beautiful video. Only knew a few of MIckey's songs. Never heard this one and it is wonderful. Enjoyed the photographs and the bit of Kris. Altogether
I will agree with 'promuze's' posted comment! This video is, indeed, a wonderful tribute to Mickey Newbury! He is a cherished legend in the Best of American songwriters! I shall always cherish him among my favorite singers!
Most music folk in the UK think Dylan is the greatest poet and songwriter to come out of the States but most folk in the UK have not heard of Mickey Newbury. Those of us who" Know" never argue the point , just lend them a CD and wait for their hearts and minds to switch on. Dylan, for all his talent does'nt make you cry, ever. Newbury does as music sometimes should. Thanks for the great mix of music and images.
@cannitb And sad to say, Dylan can't carry a tune. Mickey hits you right where you live, in your heart. I sure miss the man. Got me cryin like a baby.
i am a big ugly englishman but these tunes by Mickey just reduce me to a bubbling heap . At least we have the music God Bless Mickey ... thanks for these super uploads
Duke, you are promoting and honoring one of the most important songwriters/singers of the last century. And to my humble opinion, it's a labor of love and dedication and.... you are doing a great job!
Known mostly by a group of insiders worldwide, this medium will spread the word worldwide. It is about time.
I like the photo of the dog asleep in the guitar case !
