I had absolutely no idea Willie Nelson wrote "Crazy!" I love learning new music information.
Thanks for dropping by my blog, the explanation of how to get involved is now up, questions are welcome.
Can't go wrong with Patsy! Thanks for playing
I LOVE EVERY one of your picks!
Great to have a new contributor. :-)
Makes me want turntable and scratchy old album to play!
Thanks for your comments at Looseleaf.
Hey Bumbles, thanks for commenting at my site (the mums.) I live right down the road from you in Shrewsbury!
I love that Patsy Cline song! Excellent list.
Nice. Patsy, and Eastbound and Down is a great choice.
Any list that includes Patsy Cline and Lucinda Williams is okay in my book. Nicely done!
Blackhawk was fairly popular in the 90s. You can read more about them here.
Oh, and I love that Jerry Reed song too! =))
