Hi Folks: My name is Bill and that's my wife Lorraine with me. We both enjoy Country music very much and decided to make a few videos and post them here on YouTube.
First let me briefly explain how we go about making our videos. We play all our own music by pre-recording the instruments and then mixing them down with our videos as we film them. In most songs I lay more then one lead track but in others I lay a rhythm track and play lead or the bass while singing.
I'm using the 'Precision Bass' and the 'Strat' (We had them sense 1962) along with a Gibson J40 I bought in the mid '70's. The other flat top, borrowed from my son, is called a Vantage and I find it has a good sound. The percussion is done by using bits and pieces of old drums I've accumulated over the years.
Influence: Buddy Holly, Johnny Cash (specially Luther Perkins), Waylon Jennings, George Jones and Ralph Stanley
Thanks to all you kind folks for taking the time to listen to our videos.

"No;not much Tuks." But the colour stayed all that time till I put the one and only J.C.(LEGEND) up:and there he stayed.Bill and I often talked about J.C.There was a channel that used to put a song up and ask which singer we preferred(clever idea:putting 1 song up by two singers):it was always J.C.When we heard one particular track Johnny V J.L.it was interesting to read people's views:they were diehard J.L.fans and always voted for him.Not me:only once and that was unusual(as Bill said) as it's one of my fave songs that the great man sings.Bill was the only person who knew the 2 country singers I hate: he'd laugh and say:Good For you!! I don't think he liked him much either but Bill was always the diplomat.I miss those chats Lorraine and I'd always ask him about you and say...Tell Lorraine to smile...and you did,Way to go my lovely friend.I think you are GREAT! So there!
Can you see me waving lovely Lorraine?I am,I am!
i really enjoyed your music here and will check back for new stuff being added from you.

format is being forced on us at the end of February;no-one has a choice.Personally I think its all wrong and very sad and people are very angry about this..we carry on:((.
Oh for the good old days:a friend once said that there may be constant change but they didn't have to like it.I agreed totally but G.have spoken! As for Dwighty..you have GREAT taste.Turn it on,turn it up..turn me loose...OMG You have me singing now.Lorraine!! I'm waving to you from these sunny shores.I hope you can see me my lovely friend.
having quite a few friends and family helping you enjoy your special day...I hope you get some nice prezzies!
Fingers crossed my poet friend that the sun comes out for you too..its beautiful here but colder.
Make a wish Lorraine when you have the first slice..Im waving to you with a drink..a toast to you and to your
health.Come on..have a double!!
