Great job and great song. I remember I used to hang out with an old guy like this. I saw Guy Clark play it live last year and he said it was about his grandmother's boyfriend. he's a funny guy
Thanks Brother, man you sounded and played that great. Thanks for posting that. You are very good and its more than obvious your whole heart is into the music when you play. Thanks again, Take care.
The line "To me he's one of the heroes of this country, so why's he all dressed up like them old men?" chokes me up every single time, and this is no exception. I also have to agree that songwriting does NOT get much better than this. Guy Clark is one of a very small handful of living songwriters that I would consider legendary. He is a natural treasure and I'm honored to have met him and seen him live twice. Well done!!
Absolutely agree about this tune. It truly is about a "hero of this country"! I have seen Guy do this twice live... I'd bet he'd be proud of your rendition. well done my friend! I gotta look to see if have anymore GC covers. You're "built" for his stuff!
ah i really love your voice and your guitar playing.. you really sound great... so just post away! youve got nothing to worry bout, sound sooooo wonderful!
Good job my friend! :)
