I'm still planning on making a Riders In The Sky discussion thread, but is anyone interested in one about The Moffats?
James Hand died from complications of heart failure at Providence Healthcare Center in Waco, at age 67. Texas country great James Hand dies at 67
Wow, this is a real shame. It's a prime example of a major label mainstream modern country group and their greedy record label bullying a hard-working, long-running blues artist. Country music used to be grass roots music made for the people and now we see things have changed drastically. Hopefully everyone can join together on a global level to raise money for Ms. White's legal bills as I really want to see her defeat these covetous bullies while setting a precedent for future cases of a similar nature.
"...we had heartfelt discussions with her about how we can all come together and make something special and beautiful out of this moment..." In other words, we're going to do what we want because we're super famous and you're not, or else we'll sue you. Just makes me sick. What a bunch of priviliged little turds.
Time (The Revelator) and this one are my favorites but there are several more really good albums too Gillian Welch – Soul Journey Label: Acony Records – ACNY-0305 Format: CD, Album Country: US Released: 03 Jun 2003
I posted something like this in the What Are You Listening To Now Thread or What Did You Listen To Today thread. Blue Eyes, The Harlot, The Queer, The Pusher & Me Waylon Payne To be released on 9/11/20 I had no knowledge of Waylon Payne until this odd title caught my attention in in new releases on Tidal. I listened to the first three songs, Vol 1 released in June and loved them. Vol 2 followed in July and Vol 3 about a week ago. The entire album with three more songs than I heard will be released in mid-September and is a sure buy for me. If you are a fan of newer country artists like Sturgill Simpson, Darrell Scott, Aubrie Sellers, Jamey Johnson and Chris Stapleton give these songs a listen. For myself these songs are not just good but great. I wonder what you might think.
Here is a video of Randy Travis and his wife talking about his previously recorded demo called Fool's Love Affair:
