Alan,
That is about as "classic" as Country gets... really captured that Ray Price sound. A good arrangement, good mix...
"I hear he left you for another, your life’s a total mess Among the tears I’ve cried for you, there’s a smile I must confess"
...got a real kick out of that.
(hope that knuckle heals soon).
fj Hi Floyd, Thanks a bunch! I cut my teeth on this kind of music. If I had a dollar for every time I'd played the Ray Price "Night Life" album - three or four times a day for close to a year! I was also a big Faron Young fan. I appreciate the kind comments. And the knuckle is doing much better. Most of the swelling is gone and the color is back to normal. A few ibuprofen keep the pain in check. I even played a few chords on my Yamaha acoustic earlier today! PS: Gonna recut this in a week or so. I think I'll pick up the tempo just a touch (maybe 5 ot 6 bpm) and get a less busy pedal steel. And maybe my vocal will be a little better by then! Best to you. Alan

As floyd said "as classic as country gets."
I'm perhapsonly a year or two older than you so we have many similarities in music background, etc. I used to go to sleep as a boy listening to all night "clear channel" radio where you'd hear rockabilly, blues and classic country on the same program. Those influences remain to this day. Janice is more than a decade younger than me but she heard this music (your song) when young from her parents (and her daddy playing harmonica based country songs).
All that above ramble means is that we just fell right in with this from opening to closing. Tears in the beer? Reflective of "true life?" Yep, and folks who don't get it are missing a lot. Blues and country have soooo much in common.
Keep 'em coming!
J&B Hi Bud - Janice, too, Loved your comments! I went to bed listening to WSM. We got it pretty clear in St. Louis. After the Cardinals baseball game was over on summer nights, I'd switch to WSM. I love playing this style of country music. Alan Jackson and George Strait gave a few years of somewhat similar music. But other than that, it's almost forgotten by commercial radio, However, there's a young lady from Missouri named Teea Goans who sings almost nothing but classic country. She's getting to be somewhat of a name in Nashville. If you're interested here are two links to her: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jdNCS0zg1nA (Jimmy Capps on guitar and Mike Johnson on pedal steel) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HtFywTyEEKcAnyway, thanks so much for your kindness. See ya at the nursing home in about 10 years ... Ha! Alan

Hello, Alan
Simple but very nice melody! I think your intension it might have been done back in the late 1950s or early 1960s was well succeeded. These types of songs were frequently broadcasted with other American Oldies in Japan as well. Good old song. I feel nostalgia. Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.

Alan, I have spent a lifetime playing this kind of shuffle and this is the real deal. Excellent editing of the fiddle and steel. Well sung and everything is in it's proper place. I enjoyed it. Tom

Hi Alan,
I really enjoyed this. It was like stepping into Dr Who's TARDIS and sailing back to my young days.
I agree with all the comments above. This is 100% authentic sounding classic country from the 1960s. You've done a great job.
All the best, Noel
P.S. I hope your knuckle fades back to pink soon.

Alan, you hit the nail on the head with Ray Price reference! Man I could hear him singing this! My grandmother (if she was still with us) would be asking you for a copy of this one. Good job! T

Alan, I am a throwback I guess, but I have always loved this stuff and I'm not likely to change now. You did a great job on the vocals. I'm just getting back from a trip and this is a good one to start with. I hope you will post the finished version. I would like to hear it.
