In a dorm room 1975 at UNCW. To stoned to speak. Nitty gritty for hours on end.

[kjay1488]

The John Denver version is a million times better.

[RoyFive]

Really a sweet song. One of my favorite Ibby Ibbotsen tunes.

[SuperMagnum454]

The best of the best. I heard this for the very first time in 1989. Still love that man.

This song reminds me of long lazy afternoons sitting next to the river in Williamsville VA at the gorge ...with my wonderful husband and our daughter...wonderful, beautiful times!! Even while I'm sitting in my office at work I can almost here the river while listening to this song...

My God...I'm back again from my world travels and at my home in Wheat Ridge, Colorado and have just come in from the deck, watching the sunrise on the foothills and back peaks, and the flatirons of Boulder...at my laptop and I find this!! a piece of my youth...long lost. What a gift! thanks so very much my man.

[ronstadtfanaz]

I too have been waiting for the album version of this to get posted. Been watching for it for months. Love the album it's from!

[SouthCarolinaPicker]

@ronstadtfanaz .. A great LP it is, RFA! And I was surprised, too, at how Ibby's tune wasn't properly uploaded.. I'm glad EMI allowed this one and didn't block it.. Thanks for your comment and for stopping by! And thank you EMI!! SCP

Unfortunately,a lot of Nitty Gritty's good music is noticably absent from youtube.One thing I would like to see is a good posting of their song Cosmic Cowboy as it is on the Dirt,Silver,and Gold album.There is a MP3TUBE one posted,but the sound quality leaves a lot to be desired.I wish I had the capability..hint..hint!

[SouthCarolinaPicker]

@midvilledean .. Well then, MD! It's time to Ride 'n Rope 'n Hoot! Hint .. Hint!! :)

[midvilledean]

Oh,thank you so much for posting this song.I've been waiting for this day!

[SouthCarolinaPicker]

@midvilledean .. You are more than welcome, MD! So glad you found this.. SCP

Simplistic beauty. A drive down a dirt road. Americana.

[SouthCarolinaPicker]

@mountainmajestic .. An Ibby/NGDB Classic, indeed, MM! Ride the vibe, enjoy the view :)

@Givingheart51 .. I couldn't agree more, GH51! One of their very best! Hugs Back :))
