Curtis Leach - Highway Man. (lyrics in description)

[oldfolkiepad]

Thumbs up for a great story-song I'd certainly never heard before. Most enjoyable - thanks for the share!

Regards,

Paddy

[MrFolkncountry]

@oldfolkiepad Thanks Paddy, We are hoping to find exclusive seldom heard tracks for this channel, and promote fellow musicians and artists simultaneously. The Folkies and Country singers that we have met are the "salt of the earth", and are a great inspiration to us. The camaraderie here on YT is incredible. If someone had told us last year that five artists would soon be covering our songs , we wouldn`t have believed it.

Best wishes

Paul and Jim

What a tragic story of the life and death of Curtis Leach. I love the song. Great choice for the channel. ***** peace, Sherrill

[MrFolkncountry]

@sherrillwallace Thanks Sherrill. maybe Curtis would have been a star, we will never know. Jim is putting a lot of time in,looking for exclusive folk and country music that has never been put on youtube before. He has a great memory for songs. His dad also had a massive collection of old C&W songs.

Best Wishes

Paul and Jim

Just love this, reminds me of the old days talking on a CB radio. What a great video! Thanks for sharing this. :) And thanks for commenting on Stumble On, the song that Nidge featured for Mystery Youtuber of the week. It's much appreciated! I'm getting ready to leave for a camping trip the rest of the week, but I just thought I'd say thanks before I go. Have a great week, Paul and Jim. :) Janet

[MrFolkncountry]

@onewomanandsomesongs Thank you Janet, that is very considerate of you. Enjoy your camping trip, and hopefully we will have some more interesting stuff for when you get back

Warm Regards

What a terrific country track...I am going to learn this one

[MrFolkncountry]

@TheBeestoncowboy That`s good news Les, we`re pretty certain that it has never been covered before.

Thanks for commenting

[cheekychickenhead]

I have never heard any of his music before he was talented. Such a tragic death.

[MrFolkncountry]

@cheekychickenhead I`m not suprised Tam. He was on the threshold of stardom when he died.

The record was Jims late fathers and he bought it 47years ago in 1964 ,we were only kids ourselves then.

Kind Regards

Paul and Jim
