  1. Hillstomp -Graverobber’s Blues

    • wow…never heard of these guys…right up my alley 🙂

    • Of all the great Dylan tunes out there I think this moves me the most -the quiet sadness of it. And his voice never sounded better.

    • and speaking of the classics,

      Led Zeppelin – Stairway to Heaven:


  2. oh yeah… solidly in me broken bones n party years 😀
    (im kinda starting to feel those years now….lol..good times)

  3. The Band – Long Black Veil

    The Lefty Frizzell original

  4. Clarence Gatemouth Brown – See That My Grave Is Kept Clean

    Clarence cut this when he was dying of lung cancer.

  5. Johnny Hoy and the Bluefish – Don’t Put No Headstone on My Grave:

  6. I love that song. Written by a teenage girl who must have been an early Goth prototype.

    So If Someone Sends You Flowers Babe – The Kynds

    Ain’t No Grave Gonna Hold My Body Down – Tommy Crank

    • I once met a bass player who did the most hilarious impersonation of George Jones I had ever heard in my life. I think what made it even funnier, was the fact that this dead-on impersonation was coming out of someone with a shaved head and a gigantic handlebar mustache.

  7. The pacing & pitch of his voice in that one remind me A LOT of Chris Ledoux’s

    This one is obviously a lot more country, on e you get in there, but it starts with that similar-ish pacing;

  8. Fitting ALL sides of the theme😉

    The Jovi:

    And the cover (To quote Garth, “God Bless Chris LeDoux!”):

    • Adding in another pair…

      The original:

      And the version I’d bet more of y’all know;
