I never liked the Eagels.  I liked Joe Walsh and even he refused ta go ta the big reunion at the Y2K party.  I laughed perty good when I saw The Big Labowski an all The Dude cared about while he was gettin the snot knocked outta him was that the driver wouldn't change the radio station...it was playin the Eagels.

I'm not a huge Eagles fan, but I do like "Take it Easy" and "Hotel California".

Eric plays the leads in While My Guitar Gently Weeps on the White Album, most folks think it was George cause he was singing it (and wrote it).

George was a purty fair picker in his own right. I am a big fair of guitar solos or leads.  Got hooked on guitar music listening to Dwayne Eddy, Dick Dale, The Ventures, Safaris, and Chantays in the early 60s.

Duane Eddies big hit was a result of him changin a few notes in When the Saints Go Marching.  I used ta listen ta a lot of that stuff.  Remember one called Telestar er somethin...have ta go look it up.

Ah the BRMC.  "Hey Johnny, what ya rebellin against?"  No one can do that song like the Righteous Bros.

Ya Pop, it was Rebel Rouser I was talkin about up there.  He even admitted it's origins, just foolin with his guitar.

Good ta see ya back Willie.

Jist watched tha George Strait special, he is/always will at that top of my list..


"Troubadour"

I still feel 25 most of the time.
I still raise a little cain with a voice.
Honky Tonks and pretty women,
But Lord I'm still right there with 'em
Singing above the crowd and the noise...

[CHORUS]
Sometimes I feel like Jesse James
Still tryin' to make a name.
Knowing nothing's gonna change what I am.
I was a young troubador
When I wrote in on a song.
And I'll be an old troubador when I'm gone...

Well the truth about a mirror...
Is that a damn old mirror...
Don't really tell the whole truth.
It don't show what's deep inside.
Or read between the lines.
And it's really no reflextion of my youth...

[CHORUS]
Sometimes I feel like Jesse James
Still tryin' to make a name.
Knowing nothing's gonna change what I am.
I was a young troubador
When I wrote in on a song.
I'll be an old troubador when I'm gone...

I was a young troubador
When I wrote in on a song.
And I'll be an old troubador when I'm gone...
I'll be an old troubador when I'm gone...

I remember listening to his first  song, "Unwound" in about 84. I had bought a new GMC truck about that time. It had one of them new fancy radios with an AM/FM radio with a cassette player.
