I’m an old punk from 80/90s and started loving country music a while back. Junior brown is awesome. Punk and metal are fun when you’re young. But if you love music, as you age your tastes expand and you realize country music is good. My play list is like razor, Kenny rogers, buckethead, junior brown, the cure, hank Williams jr. if it has guitar, good Melodies and good vocals ,I’ll take it

Rip : Red Simpson (6 march 1934 - January 8 2016) .... Red Simpson This is actually a duet with Red Simpson and Junior Brown in 1995 . Red Simpson originally recorded it on his 1966 album "Roll, Truck, Roll"

I had the pleasure of meeting and hanging out with Red and the boys. We would go to Lloyd Readings house for dinner. Oscar Whittington was my chaperone 😅. Banny Bannister was one of the funniest guys in the group but thats because he was the youngest, well besides me. But I was just there for entertainment for the boys because their wives had seen and been through all their games and I was fresh and easy to fool. Well thats what they were thinking untill about 10 minutes into passing the grub around and Os did something that was so out of character but was looking at the boys waiting for their reaction. He was looking at me sideways while passing the biscuits to Banny who was dieing laughing but Red was looking at Os and then me. So it was me that they were all ganging up on. Well I came back with words that were totally unexpected but completely delivered clean but sharp. And boy let me tell you the laughter was all on Os. Nope he wasn't going to throw me a stink bomb and laugh to tell about it. From there on the table was even all way around. I had passed the test and gained some respect all around. I was the only female seated at the table surrounded with legends whom star wasnt shinning anymore. I really didn't know it at the time but I was eating dinner with the Bakersfield Sound.

[@CannoTivu1996]

[@jayteebee2041]

So many rock and metal guitarists list Junior and other country players as influences and I hear and see it now. Jerry Reed has always been a big influence on me along with Roy Buchanon, Chett Atkins, Hank Garland and many other brilliant country players but this guy wow. Never heard of him until Dean Deleo of the Stone Temple Pilots mentioned him and I can def. hear Reed and Garland in Deleo.

[@quackshacker]

You nailed it

[@jayteebee2041]

I have always done pedal steel bends on guitar and implemented chickin pickin and other techniques but I see so much more I can absorb. George Jones is my favorite country singer. David Gilmour and Layne Staley for Rock. Those 3 I learned a lot from singing wise.

[@JamesEmlynDaviesBrown]

I was pullin' up a hill that's known as the Devil's Crest, Haulin' 36 ton on a run called the Nitro Express. There was nothin' but curves a runnin' from the top on down, And at the bottom of the grade sat a quiet little country town. Well, I was drivin' off the top when she jarred and the driveshaft broke, Started pumpin' up the brakes, saw 'em going in a big cloud of smoke.l To keep 'er upright ...I knew I had to do my best, Against a runaway bomb they call the Nitro Express. There was 36 ton of a detonated steel, Over 18 tires that smoked and squealed. I had to ride her down and I couldn't jump free, Or there'd be a big hole where that little town used to be. Well that old trailer leaned each time that I took another curve, My hands started sweatin' and I knew I was losin' my nerve. And I was cussin' each rock and every inch of the Devil's Crest, A fightin' with the wheel of a rig called the Nitro Express. I side-swipped a mountain so I'd slow her down by rubbin' her side, And when the sparks started flyin' man it looked like the 4th of July. I finally got her stopped ... but mister I'm a gonna confess, That's the last run I'm makin' in a rig called the Nitro Express. (Repeat - change last line to .Cause there'd be a big Hole where that little town used to be.
