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.

You're so funny Lorraine:I tell you what,we'll go through the maze together but it is very stupid:no showing vids with ads from me,that's for sure.And Dwighty?Lorraine!! How could you think I'd forget Dwighty:he's fantastic,two grammys;15 nominations:how many singers can say THAT?I'd love to see him live.And that's another country singer I like and admire a lot:Buck Owens:a legend in his own right:Dwight always stayed loyal and loved him as a friend.D.Y.has charisma;stage presence and is awesome:and you like C.C.R.Yet another brilliant group with hit after hit.It's a shame how it ended:money again!!Doh! Have a super day my lovely and funny friend:you're so nice.I've got a drink if you want one:I hope you can see me waving.

I remember when we both started and I asked Bill what he thought of the colour I'd picked Lorraine.His answer?
"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!

Hellooo over there in cold Canada.How are you Lorraine apart from being very cold:)) I hope you're doing okay and that you have had a good start to the week after the warm weekend.I know we're due cold weather soon but it just wont come.Yay!! I hope you're ready for the changeover:how exciting(NOT!).It was always coming since we noticed the small changes over 5 months ago.Oh well Lorraine:it's G's(dirty,greedy company) loss:they can advertise their rubbish elsewhere.The original format was the BEST:such a great layout:then greedy G.took over.I think that most people that I know have resigned themselves to it:but it's sad to see good people leaving:(
Can you see me waving lovely Lorraine?I am,I am!

Hi Lorraine! I'm glad you've been having a good week.It's been great here as well.I expect that you know the new
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.

Roll on Springtime.I'm listening to your brother playing harmonica:what a song that is and how good you all are..I love the wave.Smiles when I think of that moment and what a good time that was.Happy week my friend from across the road.I'm waving to you with a drink in my hand!!

Hi Lorraine, what a great job you did on "Sunny Side of The Mountain ".........good bluegrass is probably my fav. type of music with traditional country right up there.Its nice to drop by and listen to your songs and "borrow your new ones.The Gaspe has so many great artists its hard to believe and you and Bill were so instrumental in leading the way for so many others to get involved. Wishing you a great week and rest of the winter in the snowy hills of the Gaspesie.
