DAVID ALLAN COE interview - part 2

[@shyjoesam]

He is very interesting. Very talented. This should be an example of how much our childhoods can fuck us up for life. This guy had a hard life and abandoned at 9. His examples were taught in institutions. I sense a lot of pain in his life. But, at the same time he has done amazing things with his life. You can't expect someone who was dumped as a kid and ended up being influenced his whole life by people in prison to think like most. He's complex and a survivor. He's talented. He's real.

[@b2b545]

shyjoesam very well said

[@snookfanatic]

From what I know, he’s also a decent person and doesn’t live like an a**hole. Sure his lyrics are racey but they’re mostly a joke and he’s actually a very tolerant person.

[@pipedady83]

That's right

[@steveperreira5850]

Hello Shy Joe: I really liked your comments on David Allan Coe. I find him to be a complex and interesting person, if not a genius, borderline.

[@harvester7639]

My favorite county singer, he lived the life he sings about. I guess thats what makes him so real

[@inforapint]

This is truly the most honest interview and humble interview of DAC I have ever seen over the past 35 years. Thanks for posting.

[@cigarr3870]

DAC is so good, he is one of the best country singers of all time. It makes me sad folks don't give him the respect he deserves.

[@MeganSkidmore]

He always had a chip on his shoulder, that's part of the reason. And he was a little too "outlaw".

[@steelerdog58]

He speaks his mind and dont give shit! Like that!!!!

[@randyhultz7904]

busky james true

[@curbshoppin]

he was a healing part of my life because i went through a lot of the things he did but he could write beautiful music about his hurt....i could not ...i love the dude

[@Mopar21277]

That "Little Annie" is amazing, so simple and full of imagery; DAC is a brilliant writer.

[@jeff97ish]

He is honest and his music rocks!

[@gregoryedwards8004]

he ran with a few dead members for a while

@@gregoryedwards8004 Whom?

[@gregoryedwards8004]

@@chuckryan6065 DAVID ALLAN COE

[@chuckryan6065]

@@gregoryedwards8004 Yes, this is a DAC clip, I get that. What I was getting at was your claim that he ran with some Dead members; I was wondering who you were talking about. I've been a Head for 30 years and I've never once read or heard DAC & any member of the Grateful Dead mentioned in the same sentence.

[@gregoryedwards8004]

@@chuckryan6065 I didn't think there where any Heads still around in their fifties who would admit they were deadheads... But in a few words, even a girl with faraway eyes was at a show with Warren Haynes and DA Coe back in the day... Now don't get me wrong I'm saying if your that old maybe its time to put down the bong... then you can take a second clear your mind and find that rare live recording in London and Ifn you have been around music along as you say you have coe has played with or had with him over the years countless numbers of musicians that dont tell people they played with him because of the way the man is Hell I had him over to our place i think three times in the last thirty years but I don't make it a point to brag... Not every one that hung out with the Travelin Wilburys was on them records but there are the few tapes out there Im guessing when my friend moves along to that great stage in the sky opps when we but him in that pine box we will see all kinds of stuff come out.... But yes DA Coe and his band have many pages in the History books Call him up and ask him He will answer the phone if your not being a jack ass

[@strokerace4765]

This interview always makes me cry

[@djpeters5095]

He's one fuck of an honest singing dude .

[@drd1924]

Would you lay with me...written by David Allen Coe. Wow! Awesome! ...only ever heard it sung by Tanya. Just looked it up and listened to him sing it

[@CharlieRootsMusic]

He also wrote "greener than the grass we laid on" & "stand by your man" by her also. I'm a huge DAC fan as he is my favorite writer/singer but "would you lay with me" is a direct ripoff of Townes Van Zant's "if I needed you".

[@mr.potter4661]

When he says, " They can take that kid away from and that can hurt me." ....... that hit hard, been through that twice, yrs later and I still miss both them boys. One's all grown up and moved away from his mother. I did get one great sit down with him that helped us both. I never knew how much it had affected him as well.

[@chfar072281]

Thumbs up for this one.

[@vickkimceachern3443]

Dac is forever. If I could I'd be the 8th wife lol. He's my kinda people...

[@roberthester5379]

Why can't you 🤔

[@birdwife589]

he might not be the smartest or the greatest guy ever but he keeps it real and i respect that

[@nancydickson6202]

David , I have saw you every time I could, even in Strutthers at A bar called the Cellar God Bless You , You are 89 now doubt you will be back out thank's for the good times

[@chfar072281]

3:50-4:08 is as real as it gets in a situation like his and hers.

[@paulaallen546]

I ❤❤ David Alan Coe

[@aeunuchsthroat]

Despite his unconventional personality, Coe was a genuine person; and there is no musician alive or dead that has made me laugh as much as he has.

[@larrywatkins9197]

Alway. Love his. Music. Country music hall fame

[@BallsonPHACE]

DAC is so honest and unyielding to the mainstream bs

[@raya4230]

I do not regret watching this interview even though I have no earthly idea why I did.

[@hilldwler420]

I grew up in a loveless Mormon home,myself. I know what that feels like...

[@ncfirefighter910]

People talk shit about DAC but nobody will ever come close to his greatest hits. If he didnt sing the obscene songs he would be the poster boy for country...but what makes him great is the fact that he doesnt give a rats ass what people think about him. He is one of the greatest song writers that ever lived and if you dont believe me go look at how many #1's he wrote

[@trjohn30]

D.A. Coe A REAL American Hero!!!!!

[@travishamilton1608]

He speaks the truth

[@carlosteran8114]

That ś just What I thought. All the best.

[@matthewmulkey2901]

He will always be one of the greatest ever. Saw him in Georgia, early 2000s and could just tell he was a big deal, though the venue was not. DAC

[@rigormortis428]

kinda talks like jase from Duck Dynasty. talented mothafucka right here man. great voice to.

I felt that when he talked about kids. I can relate.

[@wesleyswaters8643]

Wow 16 years old DAC, caught them young back then. This interview could never be done in today's standards. I miss the oldays

[@platevoltage2011]

Man he is so real. " I can find 1,000 women but they can take that kid away from me and that will hurt me."

[@MsJaimeanna1412]

they should take all kids away from him, he's a terrible role model. Great talent, rotten man

[@DEACONAP4LOVE]

He's the greatest lover alive!!!!

great stuff...true life

Strange interview, ut he had always been great in my book

[@clunkdunwad4714]

My Favorite Mormon.

[@cheyenneshawnee1466]

I wonder if Coe has ever sat back and sipped on a shot of cognac, and listened to himself talk.

[@roberthoenerjr5216]

He can really paint with his music

[@jfrey1]

Did he ever release the "Little Annie" song? It's great.

[@dirtyworks13]

Simplicity is the key! Yes, that's my new motto. Fuck these people that sing in metaphors or try to be all deep. You can be the deepest singing in simple fucking every day English.

[@wilksbamf]

He is a great song writer, regardless of how much of a bigot he is. Up there with Dylan in my opinion...

[@caseyjones9359]

wilksbamf Really? Dylan? I mean... he's a good story teller through song. But hey i saw another commenter who said he was like Afroman.

I don't think or know if this particular version was published but it carries the same melody as, "Little Suzie Shallow Throat" and I'm being dead serious.

[@jjbinx]

They do sound alike

[@grantwiscour]

I didn't realize he was a Mormon. A little different type of Mormon I guess.

[@steveperreira5850]

Well he’s got a version of the polygamy down, that’s a good start for a Mormon.

[@LBXII]

was the song at 4:30 ever released? if so what was the name? nice jam

[@HeadsChest]

No, but heres the lyrics Little annie walks across at the meadow Wind blows cool through her summmer dress Pecans from trees are ripe foreating As anne holds one supply to her breast Yes her lover still so far away Promised hell bw coming home today Little annie stares across the pasture Looking for some signs on where hes been But the only thing still moving is the brances And hes feeling colder than the wind Yes her lover still so far away Promised hell be coming jome today Little annie watches at the sunset Knowing in her heart shell be alone Looking in her hand that held the pecan Little annie only found the stone

[@andersonhail123]

Damn shame, beautiful song

[@Spudderr]

If these songs were released instead of his x rated stuff, you’d see his name up there in Nashville beside all the greats. I’ll play his records till I can’t any more though.

[@docholiday1806]

LBXII it has the tune of little Susie shallow throat lol

[@eastwoodccj]

@@Spudderr I wish he never released that junk. He would be the greatest musician in American rock-folk-country. He's like a Bob Dylan for the downtrodden

[@papabeareast9258]

could be a great president

[@anguishingquark]

Probably better off as a singer

[@curtekstrom6600]

Anybody that thinks being interviewed by Al Goldstein will help Launch your Career is not running on all cylinders. And DAC later came to admit it in 1986 that he himself caused his on Career Limiting Events. Having been his Truck Driver from 1986-1988 I remember seeing a Down in the Dumps DAC. I remember me last day working for him in Dallas TX 1988. Coming out of a show, to find his Bus and Semi had been Repossessed. I guess not making payments for 7-8 months, who would think they would Repo. That and going upwards of 6-9 weeks without being paid will be a good reason to leave.

[@eastwoodccj]

Poor DAC, he's a victim of his own behavior but a hero to so many who make the same mistakes. His music is great, one of the best song writers ever

[@BryanWestleinLaPan]

Dont judge someone when you havent takin a walk through there shoes.. DAC has been to hell and back and he does what he wants and why do you care?

[@dannywiginton9142]

Hey he's one cool-el dude man! that's all I have to say about thàt.

[@OspreyFlyer]

[@calebbernstein5163]

When he talks about children you can tell this is something he hasn't spoken about to himself much
