This is beautiful. I had never heard it until now. I am so grateful that there are those dedicated to keeping his wonderful music and talent alive. Thank you so much.
Now this is what I am a committed You Tuber for! Unbelievable!!!!
I'm one of the biggest Gary Stewart fans in the world, and I thought I had seen and heard all of the material that was out there, and treasures like this keep popping up.
The name of this song is "Silver Cloud",and was written in a graveyard outside of Dallas in the middle of the night. It was Gary's wife Lou's favorite song, and Gary never got to record it because of record label politics."So Jesus,make up my dying bed, cause I've been stung,by the kiss of death."Then he goes on to tell Lou,"I'll be waitin' for you,sittin' on top of a silver cloud".This is cool and rare version,but you should have heard it in the graveyard!

I realize that it probably can't happen, because of among other things "record label politics", but a great tribute to Gary, besides being inducted into the CMA and HTMA ; ) Halls of Fame, man this song would fit perfectly into an episode of "Justified".
What a great song.

Eerily prophetic in light of the circumstances of Mary Lou and Gary's passing.
