From "Highways n Heartaches"....Ricky sure can pick the hits....kinda tugs on yer heart strings...prob never hear songs like this on commercial radio again...when I 1st heard his voice, I didn't care much, but then I listened closer 2 the songs n musicianship n that was it..my set list includes a few skaggs tunes...he'll always b my guitar/mando hero..
just hooked up some Klipsch KLF 10's, one of the first three songs I test on it? This one. Love it! If only country today was HALF what the classic's are. I appreciate new country, don't get me wrong. But I don't care for most newer artists. But the classics are just awe inspiring.
Somehow Ricky Skaggs always puts me in a good place. When I hear this one it hurts but I never get tired of it. Grace and dignity are hard to find in some musicians. Thanks for all the great memories you've helped create for my family and me.

The song, yes, but not this fine cut. Does the OP have the session credits or other info on this version?

@swansonroadmeathead This song got me through a breakup, too. Right about that time.

First Skaggs song I ever heard, and it's gotten better ever since.
