Dickey wrote this of course. 1971 version and Dickey plays a fantastic solo as ONLY Dickey could on this song.

Sturgill Simpson - The Promise

The Doors 50th Anniversary Issue "LA Woman"
"Is that a real poncho or is that a Sears poncho?"

Neal Casal- Fade Away Diamond Time. Just a fantastic album. I got turned on to it by way of hearing Warren covered "Free To Go" on tribute album to Neal.

Gov't Mule "By A Thread"
"Is that a real poncho or is that a Sears poncho?"

Listening to a trashy song this morning!!

Just the thought of the Duane Anthologies makes me happy. After that Comatose Brothers doing Harvest Moon with A J Lee, I found another almost as good. Great song, great squeaky girls, great babies. Happy Jack music.

Me too Rusty. The last time we spoke I asked him if there's anything I can do or if he needed anything. He replied, "Live your life. Just live your life." Rock In Peace Dan 🌹

@robertdee Before the British (Beatles) Invasion - the two predominant types of music in my family's house was "Big Bands" and Hank Williams. For a minute there, I though you were insinuating that Tommy Dorsey played slide guitar! My brother attended high school with a relative (grandson?) of Tommy Dorsey - named Tommy Dorsey Jr. He looked just like his famous namesake.

@rusty Rusty back when I tried out for band in the 6th grade ( about 1958 ) the band director called the instrument SLIDE Trombone.
A lot of jazz fans then and especially New Orleans jazz fans loved Jack Teagarden on slide trombone. But the band teaches liked Tommy Dorsey for his smooth touch.
I was told on the above video and version of I'm Getting Sentimental About You that Tommy made popular then was popular again when the Twilight Zone movie came out, Tommy played it in an octave higher than it was written and they way Tommy played it is very difficult for most bone players to play.
That is cool your brother got to know Tommy Jr.
A lot of great musicians and singers went through Tommy's band in the 30's and 40's including Jo Stratford, Frank Sinatra, Buddy Rich and others.

The first time I heard the second half of Mtn jam I was blow away by all the different grooves they went through during that section of Mtn Jam...some of Duane's best playing...I love the hard 6/8 groove just before the slow "will the circle be unbroken" part...

@goldtop Just after Berry Oakley's solo musician friends of mine with sharp ears told me when Oakley counts "1 2 3" and the entire band comes back, they are out of sync and Butch Trucks turns it around but they continue to be off so Butch does it again and they are back in the same groove then.
These musicians were so young, early 20's except for Dickey and Jai Johnny and they had not turned 30, but many have noted the playing on Fillmore East sounds like seasoned veterans with decades of experience.
The same has been said of Derek Trucks when he was 19, 20, 21 etc.
