I loved this song and looking back all these great 70s tracks were teaching me chord progressions.
I also had a dog called Sam, when he died I was heart broken.

Right now I am listening to Satan. Satan's music is so much better than Christian music :oldbiggrin:

This is about being so preoccupied with Nashville that it precludes homesicknesses for Georgia.

This has never happened on any other site I visit. I make videos. Here I have had some disabled against my will.

What's the cause and any remedy to this? It's a bummer, b/c half the fun of this thread is checking out other people's songs!

For me (firefox on Mac OS 12.5.1) I can see the pictures in almost all the videos, but with a bit (few seconds) of delay.
However, a lot don't play on the forum and say goto youtube to see the video. I hadn't tried that before.

She was a very uncountry person who lived in radical Santa Cruz, California when I did. I believe she's Jewish. That's when I learned that those grossly exaggerated accents you hear coming out of Nashville are fake. Besides, I lived in the South for a while and never heard anyone talk even remotely like that. Well, if you want to be a pro musician you've got to do what you got to do.

Here's Emmylou Harris' ode to touring out of Nashville.
Hey pretty baby don't you know it ain't my fault
I love to hear the steel belts hummin' on the asphalt
Wake up in the middle of the night in a truck stop
Stumble in the restaurant wonderin' why I don't stop

Eva is one of my fave guitar players too.

Fleetwood Mac



To me the attraction of this tune is Stevie Nicks' harmony singing. So minimal yet so effective.

Very nice. Traveling Wilburys -- Handle With Care



Though the riff is stolen from Three Dog Night who did it even better. Well, you can't get sued over riffs.



Nice cowbell solo.

I will try posting a few again.

The thumbnails were replaced with “video not available”

“Play in you tube” takes you to youtube but not the actual video.
