Holy shit, that is brilliant. On so so so many levels.

everything about that porter wagoner reminds me of my grandparents. (i mean, besides the adultery part). his hair, clothes, furniture, smoking

and why can't I find the "Red Headed Stranger" artwork?

more specifically, the RHS insert art, not just the cover. But "Spirit" can work I suppose

My favorite cover art is usually old country and western, fifties and sixties jazz, and folkways.

(a) That Tanya Tucker cover is byoo-tee-full.

(b) In my sporadic, low-key way, I've contributed some friggin' wonderful stuff to these boards. Why don't more people love me? (sniff)

Marcel Post (Marcel Post), Monday, 13 June 2005 02:20 (twenty years ago)

(a) Yeah, there was a repeat of a CMT "Controversy" today about the title track.

(b) Now, is that really true? Anyway, you get mad points from me, 'cause that Wanda Jackson thing is sweeeet.

Rickey Wright (Rrrickey), Monday, 13 June 2005 03:45 (twenty years ago)

yeah, seconded!
