My mother absolutely lvoed this guy. She sang these songs to us when we were little girls. Dad would take her out dancing a few times a year, she would sing this or sea or heart break, put on her pretty red lipstick and kiss us girls so we had on lipstick. What a gift from the memory of music... Don was awesome.
@moproducer Thanks for the clarification. His "Sea of Heartbreak" made it into my fav list. I checked out "Brownie Blues" on your channel, great song, how early is that? 30's?
@budrakerz This is a remake that Don Gibson recorded in the '70s. The original 1958 release didn't have the distorted lead guitar and heavy rhythm. I like Gibson's voice better as he aged, but I prefer the 1958 recording of this song.
damn what a solo

I like Neil Young's version better but given the time Don Gibson did this it is still up there with the all time greats.

The original version is much better.

A #1 hit for the late Don Gibson on the Country & Western charts. It was the twenty-fourth #1 C&W hit in the Rock Era.

The original is good but the M. ward cover is the best

It's great but Neil Young's cover is even more superior
