Don't it Make My Brown Eyes Blue - Crystal Gayle

I don't know many singers with hair this long. And the song itself is great. Need I say more about the great Crystal Gayle? Enjoy!

Lay Down Beside Me...another Don Williams classic!

Don Williams did a number of great songs back in the day. This is one of his best. Lay Down Beside Me has also been covered by the likes of Alison Krauss and Kenny Rogers, and frankly, I love Alison Krauss's part of the duet she sings with John Waite. I'm not so fond of the John Waite part though. Anyway, no one does it like the Gentle Giant, Don Williams. Take it away big guy!

Love Me Over Again: A Don Williams Classic

Back in 1980, the voice of "the Gentle Giant", Don Williams was heard frequently on the country radio stations. He actually had quite a few big hits, such as Some Broken Hearts Never Mend. Good Ole Boys Like Me, and many more. This classic, Love Me Over Again is one of his best. I'm posting two versions, because I can't find a live video of him singing it, except when he's older--and the recording is a little hard to hear. Anyway, here's the earlier recording and a later live recording. Enjoy!

Hal Ketchum: Past the Point of Rescue



Hal Ketchum's Past the Point of Rescue, from 1991 is a country classic love song. I am learning this song right now on guitar. If you have never heard it, you're in for a treat.
