We took the tour of the Grand Ole Opry House several years ago! We learned so much about Roy,...... He truely loved & was the caretaker of the Opry House & Museum! Oh the stories of days gone by were priceless! I would highly recomend the tour of the Grand Ole Opry to anyone! I could just feel it in the air that Roy was still with us walking the halls! We were there 1 day before Trace Adkins was to join the Opry as a member!
I'm delighted to read so many enthusiastic reactions to this post of mine. I didn't really expect it, but maybe that's because I know very little about country music, especially being a 26yo Italian never been to the US ^^ glad to have been making people happy with this post. Long live Roy, Oz and the Opry. I agree, for the little that I know country music, I can barely listen to anything recent, which most often shouldn't even be labelled as country music! Love this song, love the dobro!
Thank you for posting this - I think I remember seeing it live several years ago, and wondering then who would ever replace this legend. I don't think anyone has. I appreciate this very much, thank you once again!!
