Just like old times! Sharing great music with a wonderful group of music lovers on Saturday night DUAN!
Being a huge Jeff Buckley fan, I thought this was pretty cool.
A couple of nights ago, Myles Kennedy of the band Alter Bridge, covered Jeff’s version of the Leonard Cohen classic “Hallelujah”.
But what made it really cool was that Myles was using Jeff’s ‘83 Fender Telecaster, which was on loan from the guitar shop that now owns it. https://youtu.be/h8rVbQ9rsx4
I might not have them 100% right but damn if this verse didn’t stop me in my tracks…
I was a freedom rider/& we thought the south had won/Virginia in the spring of ’61/I sat down on a greyhound that was bound for Mississippi/my mother asked me if that ride was worth my life/& when the shots rang out I never heard her sigh/& I am still around/& I’d take that ride again/& again & again & again
I ain’t rightly sure about the baptists (no offense y’all but I’m kinda an agnostic when the chips are down…) but I think you might be giving me a reason to start coming to church on the regular…

Leave a line break between text and link for video to show next time.
Thanks Keitel! That did the trick!
See my above text regarding Miles Kennedy.
Hopefully my video embeds this time!
That was awesome. That song always gets to me.
One of my all time favourites – impossible to sing all the way through without crying.
Did someone say ‘coming around’?
Great pick. Have some Travis
I dig it!
Steve Earle is awesome but I really like Roger Clyne’s cover of this song of his better than the original.
Awesome! Thanks for sharing.
A Place to Bury Strangers – We’ve Come So Far
Oh, I like that!
I think the Highwomen are going to be in 2020’s top songs/artists

…not that the others weren’t good or anything…
Ya that one’s a little heavy, but so good. I also enjoy this one, lyrics roughly translated as Mommy’s hungover so you kids better leave me alone…
Oh yes.
Those guys were amazing.
You are rubbing off on me.
The Prophet’s Song – Queen
Because I still miss Roky Erickson.

One of my favorite Pretenders tunes!
