i can't stop playing this song. Nick Cave wishes. So amazing to me. That guitar! I just got a beautiful mono Capitol copy of Tex's Blood On The Saddle album and the whole thing is a revelation to me. "Bury Me Not On The Lone Prairie" is amazing as well. I haven't even gotten to the second side yet! I keep playing the first side.
ignore the hokey homemade video for this. if you've never heard this song, please listen!

meanwhile, Tex's version of "Barbra Allen" is masterful.

i just got tons of great cowboy and country 78s in. i need something to play them on. i used to have a turntable for 78s but not any more. i really want to have a section for 78s. even got some good pre-war country stuff.
