98. George Strait / All My Exes Live in Texas

[@johnjacobs1625]

Lee, I live In Pa. and in 1996 Skoal gave away tickets if you sent in a coupon. We went down to Forks of the River Tenn, for the Rock the Smokies on July 6th 1996. The bands: Marty Stuart, Travis Tritt, 38 Special, Marshall Tucker Band, Charlie Daniels Band, and Hank Jr was last. Jr was also drunk off his azz. Beautiful place for a concert, as it was on the hillside of a old farm.Behind the stage was a railroad and behind that by about 100 yards was the river. When they started the concert they played the National Anthem and released a bald eagle. Half way through the concert a train came thru, nice and slow. It was real cool. I also met Harry Gant at this concert and got to talk to him for 15 to 20 minutes. That was REALLY really COOL. Lee, I got a good chuckle out of Merle's teeth and Merle, Willie and Kris flipping ya off. Take care and thanks for sharing.

[@stephentillisch4667]

Thanks for the kind mention Lee. Some of my greatest memories are the fun records with you and the rest of those great players. So nice to hear some of the history we lived. Love spending time with you here and there. Peace.

[@grimdrum2396]

I love listening to you talk and listening to your playing as well. Thank you for this viewing and listening pleasure.

[@DrewSohl]

One of my favorite country songs.Thanks.

[@cooldudemark]

The wide scope of recordings you've played on astounds me! You have such a diverse body of work!

[@thecollective1584]

"My singing teeth arrived...." I'M DYIN'!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@isitrealgood]

THAT'S a great story, along with understanding that Merle Haggard had a studio in Redding, Calif., just 2 1/2 hours from me in Oregon.

Omg busy busy busy. Lee has lived a thousand lifetimes. Awesome historic ones. Thanks for sharing

[@brucybabyy7355]

no kidding, you need at least 2 roombas to pick up those names.

[@matto9734]

my words exactly a few comments on Lee´s videos prior to this ;-)

[@CajunZen]

Merle had chops, but he had to make sure he had the right chops. Great story. Thanks.

[@truckerkevthepaidtourist]

you're absolutely right about that Al. if you wanted to be one of the strangers you better know your shit and you better not screw it up or you'd be fired. Merle was a lot like the late great Blues Man Albert King if you play Dan Albert's band you better play.. one-time Albert got so mad that the drummer was not keeping time at all and kept screwing up consistently he stopped the show and fired him. Albert was a very cantankerous person but a fantastic bluesman the funniest part about it that was in the middle of the show Albert's yelling back at the drummer and yelling back at the drummer and finally he just stops and says just take your goddamn sticks and get out of here 🤣🤣

[@romysan1]

thanks Leland... I wish more people would do this. what a life. from a guitar player at 73 learning bass. america is in big trouble.

[@danrae1737]

Leland, I was sitting in my backyard sipping Tennessee Whisky , listening to "One Man Dog", after having a great day. Then I tune in to to Radio Free Lee and hear this track and your stories from Nashville and my day got even better. Thank you, sir! In Canada here, we are just tremendously saddened to see the U.S. in such chaos and darkness. Thank you for doing all this and creating some light. Cheers, and merci!

[@notbraindead7298]

Thank you for that sentiment. We’ll overcome this!

[@johnnywinford7789]

I was checking out Leland and wishing I had some Tennessee whiskey, but tequila will do. Don't feel sorry for America...we have a retarded president and he won't be in office much longer 🤘 but rock n roll will never die!!! I wish I was in Canada. Enjoy it and rock on brother!

[@LinkRocks]

Country is where I first heard your playing. I kept seeing your name in the credits and thought, "Wow this Leland Sklar must be really good to be on all these albums." From there I did my research and discovered yes he is that good.

[@truckerkevthepaidtourist]

Lee's on some of my favorite stuff from Vince Gill to my man Clint Black

[@LinkRocks]

@@truckerkevthepaidtourist Ocean Front Property was the first album I ever owned. I still have the cassette.

[@truckerkevthepaidtourist]

@@LinkRocks I might have that King George cassette but I don't think it plays anymore though.. but pretty much from straight from the Heart up to about The Road less traveled I replaced most cassettes with CDs..

[@gup8175]

Thanks for the smiles in this troubled time.

[@mburgess2829]

In my opinion, country music is where strongest melodies are these days. I don’t listen to much country music but what I hear that is my impression. Give a country a strong hook and it’s hard to not to appreciate.

[@whodder06]

Leland Sklar Memorial Ward.... Now that's FUNNY! This is one of the MANY reasons why I love your updates Lee.... we don't know what story or song you'll have next and wait in anticipation. Thank you for putting this HUGE smile on my face in a world of turmoil.

[@jaredstubbs6131]

That list!!

[@tracibishir7808]

Oh how I miss hiring you to play on records here in Nashville. Some wonderful memories. As always, love hearing your stories. xxoo

[@VegasTorch]

I love the added comments that you’d never hear .... Thank you for the many history lessons! I Love it!!!

[@cmr58]

Dear Lee, This song reminds me of my father and my mother. At the time my dad was working for a new Budweiser distributorship in Barstow Ca.. I lived in the San Gabriel Valley (Southern California) My Dad was a huge George Strait fan and I became one to. When I would travel to Barstow this George Strait CD was playing. Thank you for sharing this.....these tears in my eyes are happy memories reminiscing The room story classic!!!!!

[@letsleepingdogslie2492]

I started playing rock with my first band and was asked to play country later. I learn a lot, as far as precision and playing clean. Now country is more like disco rock.

[@mearkitek3773]

I saw you with Lyle Lovett in Corpus Christi last year, my first time seeing him. It was a pleasant surprise and wonderful evening. I became interested in your music history and have really enjoyed your videos, especially about Maureen and her recovery. As a long time garage bass player and amateur musician I find your stories fascinating. Having no knowledge of the recording business, it is somewhat surprising to me to see that these major country artists didn’t use their own gigging bands to record their albums, etc. You seem like a genuine, kind and educated soul and I appreciate all your story telling. Thanks.

[@jakesnake66]

Lee, THANK YOU for extolling the virtues of country music and those who play and record it. Too often fans of other styles give country short shrift, and certainly some country music is exceedingly simple, some silly, some quaint - although that can be said about most other styles, as well. I recall needing some players for a country project I was doing (I play country/chicken-pickin'/Tele-style), and one of the drummers who called to audition told me, "I've never played much country, but it so simple I won't have any trouble. I've played rock, jazz, funk...so country will be easy." First tune I played called for 120bpm country "train" beat with brushes. The guy fell on his face so hard he was packing up in minutes. ALL music is difficult to play at expert level, and clearly you appreciate that. It's no accident that you stayed at the top of the call list for so many producers and artists. Thanks for more fantastic insight!

[@Bass.Player]

All My Ex's--- Released April 10, 1987. I have swam in the Rio Frio river several times in the 80's.

[@shelldonite8452]

Ocean Front Property and All My Ex's were among the very first songs I tried to learn when I got my first bass at 13. Spent hours listening to those songs trying to hit every note along with the (unknown then) bass player; a great learning experience for a new player... Discovering you through your other works years later and now seeing this video really feels like coming full circle. Thanks for the memories and keep up these awesome videos!

[@cathyerwin5132]

Talk about a range of music. Enjoying it all. You may not be a hat guy, but not a bad look there. Thanks again for all the stories.

[@tonynotte4111]

Not related to this video, but I was doing a search on KZbin for 'boogie woogie piano' and I found this fabulous player Dona Oxford. Look who is playing bass at this gig! Dude who haven't you played with! You are awesome!

“I put together a list of artists that I worked with in the country field. Let’s see if any names on here ring a bell for you.” What follows is the freaking Country Hall of Fame! Jesus! What an incredible Nashville career you’ve had, Lee, besides your LA and touring career! Hats off to you!

[@TheShakyArtist]

Hi Lee! I'm live in Nashville and if you haven't been here in the last 5years, be prepared for a shock. So much construction etc. Its really changed and they are basically getting rid of Music Row. As for Loews Vandy, I never knew that room! One of my favorite memories was sitting in the bar one afternoon and Billy Gibbons sat next to me drinking bloody Marys and trying a variety of hot sauces to see which was better. I've run into alot of musicians here and love it. Nashville doesn't bother famous faces like other cities because most of them are our neighbors! I'd love to meet up with you one day and just shoot the breeze. Until then, Taryn

[@tomas5376]

I can’t tell you how much I am enjoying these “history” lessons! I’ll need to go back and binge watch all the rest from the beginning! Gracias👍✌️😊🙏🏼🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶

[@truckerkevthepaidtourist]

never was there a time between this coming out until the coming of Garth Brooks about two years later where you would never walk into a bar even if it was a heavy metal or rock and roll bar and everybody would be singing along to this because it would be one of the selections on the jukebox.. love King George always have still do best part about this one too. a country song that includes transcendental meditation in the lyrics working with Mary Chapin Carpenter just like your KZbin channel I found hers her songs from home acoustic with just Angus the dog and white kitty who's usually asleep are just fantastic another Corona comfort I enjoy watching uploads of..

[@tomabbot7324]

I was married for awhile to a girl who's last name was Burnett, with a very large family. After we split, I used to sing this song, but changed it to 'All My Exes Are Burnettses'.

Love your stories Leland 🙂 and it tickles me pink you played on that song. I always get a kick out of it when I hear it

[@AlanMesserVideos]

We have worked with many of the same people in Nashville you've been naming. I've photographed many album covers and artists over 42 years.

[@truckerkevthepaidtourist]

yes you have. did you come from the old school of Henry diltz and Jim Marshall? of course Annie Leibovitz no matter who she photographs I have nothing but respect for her she just can bring out the artist in one photo

[@johnulrich5572]

One of my favorite George Strait songs! That's great. Thanks for playing it.

[@cliveculbertson3650]

Lee can play anything! A joy to watch.

[@robtheunissen1920]

Wow! I remember the song “all my exes live in Texas” from George Strait when I did my practical time at Texas A&M in College Station in 1989. I still love Texas and now I play a Dingwall bass Leland Sklar signature in 🇳🇱

[@kappiiee]

[@otisgibbs]

It puts a huge smile on my face to hear you mention Reggie Young. He was a monster player and a beautiful man. I once got to hide in the corner during a session and watch Reggie and Bob Babbit throw it down on a few songs. I kept thinking about that the other day when you were playing Rubberband Man. Thanks for sharing this stuff with us and much love to ya, Leland!

[@otisgibbs]

Also, did you have a hard time getting used to the number system on the charts at your first few Nashville sessions? And did anyone ask you to play flat wounds or a different bass? Thanks again for spreading the love and knowledge!

[@rufusromeo]

RIP Reggie. Monster session master.

[@mysterj1]

@@otisgibbs great questions. I’d be curious about that myself. I know when I got into blues gigs I was grateful I knew the NNS…

Written by Sanger D (Whitey) Shafer...been in Music City since '93...actually met Whitey at a session and backed him up when he SANG this song once in a bar...wonderful track, and wonderful to have you share this! Thanks man!

Great tales about Nashville. I love those GooGoos too! Thanks for your stories.

[@gregsmith12]

I don't listen to much country music at all. However, when you mentioned that you played with Lacy J. Dalton, I knew I had to comment. You probably know that she still tours- at least she did before this Covid-19 pandemic hit. I had the opportunity to hear her and her group last fall in southern Michigan. They were great! It so happens that a good friend of mine by the name of Bruce Thomsen, from Colorado, plays bass for her. I think it's so cool that he performs with an artist that you did in the past! Thank you for being so generous with your time and to share your experiences and talent with us KZbin subscribers!

[@jimduncan6478]

Love your channel. Thank you so much. You are inspiring. Ps. I turn 73 next month and am lucky enough to still be playing bass in a weekend cover band.

[@darrylmoore2543]

Jim that is awsome to the max ! I started at 15 now 56 but still playing bass ,now with cd s , got to put another band together once this covid 19 is over !

[@stevemartin7096]

Funny, I haven't heard of any of the artists he mentions in his list of players that he's recorded with. 😜😜 These videos highlight, of course, the immense, genre-rich, and legendary list of artists he's played with; it makes a person dizzy. Clearly his talent is the main reason that producers and musicians think of Lee first when they have an elite level project to complete. But it's also clear that Lee is fun to be around, doesn't take himself overly seriously (while taking the music entirely seriously), is still impressed by great players/people, and comes to gigs as prepared as a person could possibly be. The fact that he is sharing all of these KZbin videos for free (they could easily be part of a PhD program at any top level school) also says much about Lee's attitude. Thanks and thanks again Lee (sorry about talking about you, in front of your back😊)!🎸

[@JohmathanBSwift]

Had the old wagon wheels going today. Had to listen to _He Stopped Loving Her Today_ by *George Jones* . A very simple heart felt song. Glen Campbell and Roy Clarke got me interested in the guitar. Three channels back then, Hee Haw was on one of them. Got into Southern Rock latter on. I was the only kid around with the High on the Hog album. Moonshine Sonata jams , Leland , if you haven't seen the movie *Crazy Heart* with Jeff Bridges , please do so. Top Notch . The opening scene where Bad Blake is setting up to play/playing , reminded me of when I used to set up for this country guitar/singer Rex Cole. Identical. Rex handed me a country hat once , just before we were going into this OK Corral bar . I thought he was giving it as a gift , but he quickly chuckled and replied , _Hell no, tuck that hair up under it_ I had long hair back then. Umm , heck of a lot of top notch names , well , Dwight Yoakam . He did a great job in the movie *Sling Blade* Oh , Robert Duval is in *Crazy Heart* . Great job behind the bar and out on the boat. Robert's acting style is so easily indentifiable . You've meet everyone one of them, sometime in your life. Glad to have meet you here on You Tube.

[@dannyhemphill7618]

When I was a young musician, I was too much of a music snob to listen to country music. Now I am in my 50s and have discovered that music is music. The notes are the same, just in a different order. Thanks for helping to open my eyes, Leland Sklar.

Leland, Thanks so much for making these times a bit easier! I grew up playing country along with other genres. I listened to your playing a ton growing up. You are “the man”! I’m fortunate enough to be still gigging regularly at 71, but these 70’s aren’t as much fun as the 1970’s! My brother is a Nashville studio musician and plays with Paul Franklin and Vince Gill in the Time Jumpers.. stay happy, healthy and safe!

I thought there was only one country session/denture story , but you have upped it to two! Brent Mason tells of a Johnny Paycheck session that had to be rescheduled because Johnny flew in from Dallas and completely forgot to pack his dentures and they had to be overnighted. 🙂 Thanks for the Jimmy Bowen tales. When I first moved to Nashville, Jimmy and Louie Shelton had office/studios next to each other in the same building with their names on their reserved parking spaces, which I have a photo of somewhere. I lived a few blocks from the Loews Vanderbilt hotel and loved the story about your memorial ward.

[@mikemoran5003]

Lee - I think today was your 2nd video mention of the great Larry Londin. I saw him about 15 times over the years with the Everly Brothers. Each show opened with "The Price of Love" and as the band vamped on the opening groove, and these two LEGENDS sprung up on stage to sing and play, I found it hard to take my eyes and ears off of Larry. Please talk more about working with him. I'm not a drummer, but his playing was so tasty and perfectly suited to every song.

We were heading west, weaving through the hills, into Tennessee, the hot sun was setting and Reba come on the radio with her version of 'Sunday Kind of Love'...Perfection. When we got to Nashville and rushed into the first store we saw and I bought the single. Still a fan. Still a fan of pretty well all American music genres... All the very best Richard
