    I love "Ol' 55." It's one of my favorite all time songs. I love the way they recorded Closing Timing.

    Now you're talkin'....Tom Waits is to the listening public what Shostakovic was to the cello.. Bone Machine is one of the greatest recordings ....my personal favorite will probably always be Nighthawks at the diner

    They definately were huge part of the movement. I think it there was a concerted effort of a lot of artists to meld country into rock. There was a time you would have got run out of any town for playing rockified country. There had to be a paradigm shift before a band like the Eagles was possible.

    Ray Charles album, Modern Sounds of Country and Western Music broke a lot of ground. Willie Nelson playing the Armadillo World Headquarters exposed country to the "redneck hippies ." If I had to pick one moment it might be N.G.D.B's Will The Circle Be Unbroken. That album was a concerted effort to connect the past with the future. And it worked perfectly.

    Funny you mention that. Guess what album I picked up at one of my Goodwill searches today, Riverman? "The crack of dawn has got to be careful around me!"

    I also picked up some John Prine. God bless the little hair he has left.

    the coffee just wasn't strong enough to defend itself.....!
    for Prine...there's a hole in daddy's arm where all the money goes...jesus died for all of our sins I suppose....or something like that...I think that's John Prine's

    One of the best best songs about rock 'n roll ever written. I wish more people on my generation had gotten the message. :dry:

    I have all of Tom Waits albums from Bone Machine on. I like his older music but there is just something about his later music that I like a bit more. :)

    Know when you are trying to come up with a song name but can't get it? Happened with this one about 30 min ago, and I've been combing over my pandora likes to see if I could find it... Googling doesn't work well when its an instrumental and very few lyrics. I've become a G at finding songs though!


    Bonus - Lyrics sampled from this 78' song.
