Sounds good to me. I got to see Bonnie Raitt, once and Jackson Browne, twice in Glasgow. Warren would have capped it. 🤗

Buck Owens friend Homer Joy, actually wrote the song and Buck had the hit with it. Great singer. Love his stuff with Dwight Yoakam.

Ha! He has plenty of energy: no doubt! Saw his son Teddy in 2016 in Glasgow. Terrific ballad singer. #Tears

Irene Fraser @boozybluesy.bsky.social · 1d

Yeah, they duetted together on this one. Was Yoakam's first number one.

Eighteen on THAT list were guitarists, this says a lot.

Any, here's Mr. Spann, THE blues pianist(to me, anyway), much more to him than boogie-woogie.
