Asleep at the Wheel - The Dublin Blues - 7/26/2018 - Paste Studios - New York, NY

[@stevebohn6855]

How about we all agree Guy Clark was one of the most prolific songwriters ever, and this rendition by Asleep at the Wheel is a beautiful tribute to an amazing songwriter and wonderful, giving person that left us too soon. Life is too short to argue over these details especially when you consider the times we live in. Music is one of the few things we can all share and help lift us up. Sing it Ray! and here’s to you making a speedy and complete recovery, hope to see you back on the road soon.

I second that! May Guy rest in eternal happiness and peace. He might be trading licks with Doc, Merle, and Richard right now!

[@keithedwards9120]

Your 100% right my brother, Guy Clark is one of my all time favorites, This world needs Him , and All these famous Icons we no longer have . True Americans, that we all reach back to and listen

[@gradybird3336]

My darling and I saw Asleep At The Wheel play this Guy Clark song in Tucson not long ago. Thank you Ray, thank you Guy. One legend saluting another.

Wow....

[@jamesantkeegan83]

It's about Dublin Texas!

[@kurtschultz8199]

Ray says the song's about Dublin, Ireland, but I'm not so sure... could it be about Dublin, Texas? It seems like that would make more sense...

[@ersp1]

Why would it make more sense? He alternates between Texas and abroad throughout the song. The other mentions of Texas are unambiguous (Austin, Ft Worth).

[@gregmason2609]

I also thought it might have been Dublin Tx but I don’t know and it worked either way. Just a great song performed perfectly.

[@bobwaits4683]

He did not write the song about Dublin....the song is not about Dublin...????

[@rickshaw60]

No it is not about Dublin Ireland and he got the words all twisted and mixed up

[@tgsnider]

Only deviation from the "standard" lyrics I spotted was substituting "Fort Worth" for "London." But Guy also used Fort Worth sometimes (see the 2005 Americana Awards video).

[@rickshaw60]

@@tgsnider the Dublin that Guy referred to was not ireland

[@tgsnider]

@@rickshaw60 Which Dublin was he referring to?

[@robertmiller9849]

TEXAS and he got the words perfect. I sure as he'll don't

[@robertmiller9849]

It never was London.

[@keithedwards9120]

that's Dublin Texas, but we forgive him

[@ersp1]

Dublin Texas...that must be the reason the original recording has a penny whistle and Irish drum.

[@keithedwards9120]

@@ersp1 Regardless of the instruments used , the fact is, Guy was in Dublin Texas during his separation from his wife , Check it out with Steve Earl
