I'm from the generation who actually wrote letters in " long hand " as it was called for hundreds of years . I also remember Detroit when it was the epicenter of America's automobile industry. Where has it all gone ..... ????

Song got a lot of airplay when it came out on Chicago pop radio around 1963. Meant a lot to me growing up. Great arrangement and guitar. Heartfelt and soulful singing. Classic. Had relatives and family in the service that related to it.

AMEN to that, cleanliness. That good 'ol sound of country music transiting from old style to new sounds in modern country & western music was the true ticket to a sound that was real heart, soul, and purity that turned this style music from plain entertainment to a much higher form of art. We are truly blessed to be able to hear it and deeply ENJOY it as well. 💫

I grew up with rock'n'roll and am picky about country, but this is exactly the kind I like. Honest emotion. Thank you, Mr. Dylan, for the suggestion.

Here is what I have seen on this: Quote from (Bobby) Bare from the Toledo Free Press (TFP) web site. TFP: Who came up with that twangy guitar intro for “Detroit City? Bare: That came from the demo of that record. Billy Grammar recorded it, and that riff was on acoustic guitar. I heard that on the radio driving down Sunset Boulevard, and I thought, “That's the greatest song I've ever heard in my whole life.” I stopped the car to listen to it, and as soon as I got back to Nashville, I recorded it. Boots Randolph and Charlie McCoy played that intro on electric guitars.
