I remember catching an occasional showing of "Nashville Now" on "The Nashville Network" back in the 1980s. Jim Stafford looks so youthful here! I'm guessing this originally aired in 1985 (where Jim would be 41 years old). He looks thirty here! He was guest-hosting here. Ralph Emery ( "NN"'s regular host) knew how to conduct cordial interviews with the biggest stars of country music back in the day. I miss the classic "TNN". The channel would later see changes & morph into "Spike TV" - so sad.
You know, I don't touch ANYTHING illegal, these days. Used to, though. This brings back some pretty good memories. Kids, these days think they found, invented, discovered it all. Don't believe us when we say "been there, smoked that"!
Don Bowman had this song on an album titled "Our Man In Trouble". Copies of this album are starting to show up on CD on eBay. Jim was right. Don was singing about stuff on this album that NO ONE had ever done bofore.
Some people use that "weed" for medicine now.

Stafford seems like a real down to earth guy, unlike these pricks today singing. Just look at Justin Bieber.
