Down any Road. That's the name of it. I throwed in a Mickey Gilley collection too. I'll let you all know.


Nobody gets out of life happy without a lot of Merle Haggard.

I have the Bear Family Untamed Hawk early Merle collection,
and it is outstanding.
Great early tunes in transitional styles, Burton coming in as the lead player, and then Nichols taking over. Merle is in unbelievable voice, so many great songs.
I kept the wine, and threw away the rose-oh, my, my.
The girl turned ripe, Someone told my story, House of Memories.
Great, great stuff.
I like Merle, can you tell?

Thanks for the recommendation. I have been leaning that way a bit myself as far a listening, I just don't play that way.

I just picked up Me and Jerry/Me and Chet (Jerry Reed and Chet Atkins). Wonderful picking.

I really like the Chester And Lester album by Chet and Les Paul.

+1 on Merle. Waylon too.

This song makes cry and feel pissed off at the same time.
