He was one of maybe the top 5ish acts I most wanted to see live someday, oh well, he picked a good time to check out, I guess. Fiddlin' Billy Hurt is still alive as far as I know, but he's just not the same.

Excellent choice for a song to post. Sad to hear more and more of the people you watched and listened to growing up leaving us.

Hey, I’ve read that book and have a signed copy from the author . I used to read it every spring as a hankering to go racing came on. A far better book than movie.

Introduction; THE MORAL of this book is quick and easy: If you are ever going to stand on it at all, stand on it now. The longer you wait the slower you get.
