I played in a band that got to open for him in Atlanta shortly before he died, with Jamie Johnson. It was a pure honor to meet the man and here him sing so late in life. He toured with his drummer and bassist for over 40 years!

Fair. And I'd be remiss to try and categorize artists genre especially in the late 79s to early 80s when everyone was covering everyone else and lots of crossover into country.

But in terms of developing a taste for country there is no sense wasting time on country "flavor" when you can have a country T-bone. 🤘🏻
