I remember, listening to Billy Ray sing Achey Breaky Heart, what a time it was. Yes, it was one of the first favorites I ever had. Besides Mr. Tamborine Man, never believed someone, Bob Dylan, could have made that song famous, it sounded silly to my young mind. But even so, I did become a Bob Dylan addict... leading to a Charley Patton fixation... and Roger McGuinn.
Then, I remember the day George Jones died, April 26 2013. My introduction to him. Great singer, still love him even more now, Who's Gonna Fill Their Shoes? That's how he did it.
I remember Ray Price died that year, another singing hero of mine. I heard Porter Wagoner at that time, The Rubber Room, amazing, fantastic songwriter.
I enjoy finding all kinds of new music. You never know where you may find some unusual inspiration, whether it is Jeff Buckley, Tito Puente, or Bobby Bland.
I love learning about songwriters... Life's Like Poetry, as Lefty Frizzell sang.
Mickey Newbury knew how to write a song.
