Gary P Nunn w/ Jerry Jeff Walker - London Homesick Blues 1991

[@markz5505]

Growing up in the 70's, I always considered this song as a Texas national anthem...still do.

I wish Texans weren't such egomaniacs. ;) Bill, I've been all over the country and seen a whole mess of the world. Texas is great. But it's not as if the rest of the country is crap and we don't love the US. I'm tired of this attitude. Texas, it's just another state. The other 49 are pretty cool too.

What a blast from the past! This was unofficially our anthem of US drilling crews working on oil & gas rigs in the North Sea in the 80's.

We may have been present BUT you guys were in your own world just played for your selves.. So into your zones . What a privalige it was to the 200 or so people present.

[@DaveCarroll4]

Saw JJ and the Lost Gonzo Band in a little bar in N. Hollywood. Not sure of the date, late '70's, early "80's. After closing time with power off, they went acoustic 'til the cops came. Invited remaining fans to their hotel bar. 'Bout 20 of us went and they played adlib for another couple hours. Blew me away. I lived in Hawaii, and there's the best of performances there, but nothing before or since, could compare to that night in Hollywood (that's where the hotel was)!

[@alkuhseltsur9243]

Came here because the wonderful Jerry Jeff Walker just passed away and I'm going through some of my favorites of his (including like here, where he didn't write the song). No, you're not that bad, in fact you live in a lovely country, and this is the most good-natured counter-needling they could've done. In the mid-70s the UK was more different from the US than it is now, and Texas was more different from much of the rest of the US than it is now. I lived in Oklahoma and had been in London and people were fascinated at someone from so "exotic" a location and the tone was "how can someone from such a primitive place even make it to here?" If you had thin skin it would have been annoying but we thought it was hysterical and occasionally put on an act (we'd learned to do that with New Yorkers). This song captured all of that and still pulls me back 45 years to my teenage years. Take care and stay safe!

On our return to "The Farm" while loudly singin' along with this particular song spinnin' in my CD player, I accidentally hit & killed an Armadillo. It still haunts me. One day, I'll have a pet Armadillo named "Terry Allen" & he shall be treated like a King. I do not wanna hear that b.s. bout them carrying diseases. Oooo, that Irish gal woke up the next morning & said was her grandest Texas experience. She was crushed when I informed her I was an Ohio Boy. God Bless Jerry Jeff! "Hondo Still Cries"

Bad ass... can you tell us more about how that happened? What place? Do tell, so I can go there next time I am in NYC.

[@wm.a.billfisher1410]

This is a little late. (Who knew?) but there at least USED to be a great Texas Saloon in mid-Manhattan called the Lone Star Cafe. It had a huge Armadillo sign leaning up against the building. We did a number of concerts there back from '79 thru '81 while working on our album deals. I think Every body who was anybody from Austin and Dallas, etc. wound up playing gigs there. We played with the Blues Brothers, Bodacious and I think our old buddy Jerry Jeff there. (The years, the cities, the venues and the particular friends where and when tend to get jumbled up after a while when you're on the road about ten to eleven months a year). I came ni-close to getting my head blown off by a couple of freaked out NYC Cops after the last time we played there. A very sweet young lady (I was younger too, as that's the way it rolls if you stay alive long enough) who was the Manager there took a fraternal liking to me, which I returned, and offered me her apartment to stay in that night. You get sick and tired of staying in hotels on the road constantly, so this was a gift horse, whose tonsils I was not about to peruse. We all finished up about 2 am, and the folks who were our friends from the Village Voice and Rolling Stone pretty much knew all about what we were doing and thinking, so their interviews were short and sweet, as were most of them. I rarely saw a big native New Yorker. I'm sure in that many million souls crammed into such a small geographic area, there's bound to be some, but I don't think I ever saw more than four or five who would have been an all day climb if something had gone ary. But then again I wasn't and am not dainty now. Anyway, that night I told her adios as she headed out to JFK for a flight somewhere, and I took a cab over to her address, which was in an old apartment building that had been fixed up, but still didn't have any elevators, and her apartment was on the sixth floor, all lit up from the outside, just like she'd said. So I took my small kit with me (having left the majority of my stuff over at the hotel with the band, and climbed on up. It was a very nice and cleanly laid out apartment, with a bunk bed set in a small room immediately to the right of the inside of her front door, and as I didn't feel right about messing up her bed, after giving myself a tour of her apartment and turning off lights, I brushed and crashed in the top bunk bed, which kind of cool and funky as I hadn't slept in one of those since I'd been a Mountain Tour, Fishing and occasionally Hunting Guide up above Red River and Taos, New Mexico five years earlier. She had one of those outdoor patio lights in the giant chocolate drop cones with the bottom cut off for the brilliant light to beam out of and the on and off switch on it so you wouldn't have to turn off the entry light and climb back up the bunk bed in the dark. Thoughtful, I though. This was about 3 am and as I relaxed and let loose of the nights groove, I was approaching that space where you're not quite asleep, but you're also not quite awake, when I heard banging, yelling and cussing on the door. I didn't know if I was dreaming or not, until the door flew open with three guys screaming and cussing busting into the door. This was rather surreal there in the dark as they were down below me and to my immediate left yelling into the house. So I reached up and clicked on that yard light, only to see the back of the heads of two NYC Cops with their guns drawn and pointed straight ahead, with my yard light having the drop on them. The third guy was a little shrimp in street clothes, but all three were still screaming at a higher volume as they swung their guns around 8" from my face with their entire upper bodies and hands full of their guns shaking and dancing inches from my eyes, while still screaming. I slowly lifted my arms out of the bed and held them out to my side, while a vision of my hometown newspapers banner headline proclaimed "LOCAL MAN GUNNED DOWN BY NYC POLICE IN BED!" I didn't move or try to get a word out for a good three minutes while those Cops adrenaline slowly subsided as I was just calmly looking each of them in the eyes. Finally the Sergeant paused a second as did his patrolman to catch their breathes, and having been a debater for years in politics, I noticed my opening so I softly said to them in the pause "Hi Guys, I'm SUPPOSED to be here and I have the keys. What are Y'all doing here and who's that guy?" The beat cop started back in yelling and shaking but the Sergeant had looked me in the eyes and seen that I was legit and that I was in bed, having been trying to go to sleep. I could see his gears spinning as he slowly reached over and lowered the Beat cop's gun and shushed him but he was still cussing and spitting venom at me with his gun still stuck out in front of him at the ready, should I bust a move. The third guy kind of started quietly backstepping into the living room until the Sergeant stopped him. He then told me that 3rd guy had claimed he was being allowed to stay there on the couch and when he saw all the lights turned out, he immediately knew the place was being burglarized. And further, he had told them there was a loaded sawed off shotgun in the top bunk bed. Where I was trying to go to sleep. I slowly reached back my right hand while still holding my left hand out front where he could see it, and sure enough, there was a shotgun in the bed with me. I picked it up by the barrel and noticed the safety was off. My friend had forgotten to mention that to me as she probably thought I'd sleep in her bed in the other room. The Sergeant took it and turned to glare at that very sheepish looking little cupcake wanna-be actor, who was doing his shrinking violet routine and may have been loading his pants. The Sergeant apologized to me and pushed the Beat Cop on out the door, still cussing ME and holding his drawn gun straight out at arms length with a double grip, but at least pointing down at the floor. When the closed the door my gaze turned to the cupcake who started doing his best mea culpa as my anger started to build as I realized this ignorant little twit had just about gotten my head blown off. But this time it was almost 4:3o and I knew I wasn't going to be sleepy anytime soon, and I'd better get dressed and leave as soon as I could or there would be some cops coming back legitimately to book me for assault and battery, as I was getting more pissed by the second as the mofo was turning from self-defense to a definite offense toward that little twit, whose groveling instead of just a simple apology made it all the worse. So I told him to not say one more word, which I immediately had to repeat much closer to his face before he caught on that I did not one to hear one more word from him, nor ever see him again in his OR my life. He understood that time. The Sun wasn't quite up yet but the City's sky way up above was lighting up when I made my way down those stairs to the sidewalk, where there were NO cabs to be seen at that time of day. The streets were still empty, and from experience I knew that if you weren't in your own limo that had been waiting for you all night, you weren't riding anywhere. So I had a hike ahead of me from east of Central Park over by the East River and above the UN over to 5th Avenue and down to Bleeker Street to get on over to that really cool and nice hotel on it's own Square not too far from the Trade Towers, maybe nine or ten blocks? I went in as quiet as I could but our drummer Mel woke up and asked me what I was doing. (Drummers have always been the most nervous and tightly wound in the bands I've Produced and been Road Manager with. Maybe that's why they were such incredible drummers) I went over and laid down on my bed, for about 30 minutes while the entire events replayed themselves through my conscious brain in high speed from that hour and a half dance with .38 snub noses closer to my eyes than my adam's apple. When I saw on my watch that it was a little after 5:40, I decided to get up and go find someplace to get something to eat, as I was in "yellow space" and wasn't going to be sleeping until sometime that night, down on the East Shore of Maryland and Dave's folks 1,500 acre Christian Camp Retreat just south of Northeast. As I was walking back over to a place that I knew had good food and was open at that time over on Bleeker Street by Kenny's Kastaways, I followed my normal route over there and there were some goombas already sitting on chairs and crates outside some Italian Social Club. Since they were looking at me, and out in Colorado, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Texas or even Nashville, when people look at you, you give them a nod of the hat and a wave. They all just raised their heads a little, while I thought "Damn-Yankees" for the whole night's adventures. I got my food, ate, chilled out a little relaxing, walked back over to Kenny's to visit with him and his lady friend as they were getting ready for the day to start about three hours later at noon, right on schedule, then walked back over to the hotel to catch up with the guys and make sure we were ready to roll on downdown to Maryland. The crowd in front of the Italian Social Club had grown, and this time they all waved, I waved back. After getting together with the guys and telling what happened at Patsy's on my "deep sleep night off", Dave and I talked about something I needed to get back with Kenny and make sure was ready for our next Concert there. SO I walked back to Kenny's, passed the boys at the Social Club with a dapper don silver haired guy out in front. This time, one of the jokers hollers out in a drawn out singsong shout, "Goood MOORNNING OFFICER!" and I realized the silver haired guy laughing out loud was John Gotti. I found another path back from then on. Damn-Yankees. I' suggest you go to Newporand take a 6 of Lone Star with you instead of NYC. Damn-Yankees.

Gary P is a C&W genius. I saw him live in Austin at the Broken Spoke a couple of years ago and it was awesome. If you've ever spent a week or two in London in the winter time and are from Texas you can totally relate to this song. I spent a couple of weeks there around Christmas in 2004 and came to realize the true genius of this song! Why is Kid Rock making hit C&W songs while Gary P is relatively unknown? It's a sin.

My favorite show in TN growing up was Austin City Limits every Saturday night on pbs

[@libertarianlife3651]

+Marty Mccullough Yeah, me too. Now it aint worth turning on, its garbage.

[@aprilbaldwin465]

Marty McCullough just saw your comment and it brings back many memories. Here is one I've been looking for several decades: 1978 or 1979 - Joe Ely & JJW. live on ACL. Anybody have it?

[@blamb42]

This video is from Austin City Limits isn't it?

[@USA24541]

@@blamb42 No, this was "The Texas Connection" on The Nashville Network in early 90s. Jerry Jeff Walker was the host, it played every Saturday night. Jerry Jeff is from Oneonta, NY by the way!

[@blamb42]

@@USA24541- I think you know as well as I do that a lot of PBS shows are repackages of something else. Not that I can say for sure that this is but just because you know it as Texas Connection doesn't mean that PBS didn't air it as Austin City Limits. ACL ran for quite a while. Could have been the entire run of TC.

Got baptized to this song in 74 in Tempe, AZ. at the Cave Bar. Good times.

[@AeroWrench84]

My favorite song to listen to when I'm away from home. I must have played it every day on my Iraq deployments.

I hope Heaven is like this, if not I will be disappointed.

They say in Texas if you been good all your life when you die you don't go to heaven, you go to Willie's house.

Another piece of my musical youth has gone to Terlingua in the sky....I wore huge grooves in Viva Terlinga..............what a record ...what an icon Jerry Jeff was to the so called "outlaw country" music scene....and to all us younguns who got to get drunk and screw :) Via Con Dios Maestre

[@bretttubbs3890]

RIP, Jerry Jeff!! #Legend 😢

[@ReverendSoupbone]

My god I love this song and every person on that stage!!

[@NBBeechcraft]

My favorite tune. RIP JJW

[@theguitarjohnshow]

God Bless Gary P Nunn and RIP Jerry Jeff Walker

[@jeffwallenta2851]

Country at its finest

[@6gentex]

That's okay, it just shows there are much fewer of us that have taste and recognize talent. I've seen Jerry Jeff, Gary, Billy Joe Shaver, Delbert McClinton, etc etc....many many times in small personal venues with every seat filled by good people. If they were a huge arena type acts, I would have never have the memories I enjoy now. Some of life's greatest pleasures and treasures should be shared and enjoyed by a select few that understand and truly deserve it. You're blessed you are one of them

[@alfredmalefatto8608]

RIP Jerry Jeff! :(

[@debbieghostley]

All I know we used to listen to Jerry up here in MN in the 70's. He gives us good memories. TX I am still pissed that you have our North Stars. Love the cowboys!
