No joke deal; one of my friends grandfather taught him to play the guitar. Amanda was one my favorites.

You're thinking of somebody else. But you'll have to Google it.

Really? that's very cool. I can honestly say my blood pressure goes down any time I hear one of his songs. When my college roommate got married, he read these words to his bride as part of their vows:

you're my bread when i'm hungry
you're my shelter from troubled winds
you're my anchor in life's ocean
but most of all - you're my best friend


That big physical presence, that deep but gentle voice, the meaningful lyrics, the music -- it all came together as something very special.

I recall a gypsy woman.....


Man. This is a kick in the arse, musically. No justice when Don Wiliams passes on, but Bro Country lives.

Reminds me of my late mom who used to play Don Williams, Merl haggard, and Conway Twitty on the ole stereo turntable 33 speed.

Listened to many real country music on a Saturday night with my mom and stepfather. All I have now are memories.
