(Looking For) The Heart of Saturday Night - Jerry Jeff Walker

[@billberge1080]

What a time, worked on the oil rigs, outside of Dimebox, got off a night shift, drive into town, flip on the radio and its JJW. Life’s good. Me Susan a couple times, she was very nice, Antione’s, met a pretty girl and ran often to Barton Springs… yea, she turned out to be my 2nd cousin.. the heart of JJW, is the MCA record time this record and “Cow jazz”….thanks JJ & Susan, you added so much to our life’s happy moments

Every musician touches me in some way, but Jerry Jeff Walker touches me in a way no one else can, Somehow, his music is just REAL - it reaches way down deep in my soul, I was first introduced to "Viva Terlingua" in 1976 and been luvin him ever since. I am looking forward to meeting him on the other side...

I got to see Tom Waits open for Jerry Jeff at Ebbets Field in Denver about 1974. What a show! It cost about 5 bucks, money well spent for sure

[@larsbergqvist1655]

Wow, what a show it must have been 😎💥🎸🎶🎸

[@susanmohr5042]

I was fortunate in 1974 to see Tom Waits open for Jerry Jeff in Denver at the old Ebbets Field. I immediately went out and found Waits album

Any day without JERRY Jeff Walker, is not much of a day. “It’s a good night for Singin “Don’t make em like they used to “

[@larsbergqvist1655]

JJW albums never goes out of style 🎶🎤🎸🎶

Best years of my life - Jerry Jeff at Celebrity Theater in Phoenix

[@MySallyjoe]

I remember cruising down one of the boulevards in New Orleans with my friends when this song came on. We all started singing it in unison. What a night! I am 56 years old now and just hope that I can hold on to this memory for the rest of my life. Don't have a clue as to where my old friends are today. Guess that's life!

Jerry Jeff covering Tom Waits. Doesn't get any better than this.

[@kevinhatcher9374]

I love this version nearly as much as the Tom Waits version. I love how it shows that the same lyrics can tell a completely different story when sang differently.

[@clairelowry9122]

Aren't we all 'lookin' for the heart of Saturday night' every minute of our lives? Maybe not you, but it's true for me! Take care. Luv this entire album.

Saturday night, Sunday morning, Monday afternoon.

[@pamrichmond7711]

[@jimstrecker9266]

I had this on the Album... Used to play it before I go on a Sat Night... to get hyped out fo a good time with my friends... what a classic song... Now learning again to play on my guitar as I did back then... The heart of Sat night! ... Gas er up!

[@davefran01]

Jerry Jeff and Tom Waits 2 of the most talented least understood men in music

[@susanwatts2180]

I talked to him about this album/CD when I played golf with him at his birthday party and he said he didn't own the rights to this album, so he couldn't re-release it.... My favorite album of his!

[@timbrown4789]

Susan Watts your a liar

[@kara1464]

The two versions I know are both so different I can't even compare them. Both are awesome. Didn't even know this version existed. Thanks for posting ...x

[@markdavenport8719]

they just don't make good time music like that any more

[@MsCougarPrincess]

This is my favorite Jerry Jeff Walker Album. But it never went to CD. Hard to find. Enjoy!

[@robertgoing9211]

Crack of the pool balls the neon buzzin

[@ronfrankl]

It's criminal that this was never issued on CD, but, hey, that's UMG for ya!

[@pglanville]

Interesting arrangement of a Tom Waits classic.

[@team9wildernessmedicinetra889]

November 19, 2013 it's being released on Amazon with Contrary to Ordinary!!!

[@RobcWheeler]

I guess that why I love Jerry Jeff! coverin Tom Waits> shit!

[@jchap1265]

Theme song of the famous Fairbury golf team from the 70's know as the "suck-a-thon" gang!

[@teenonator]

It's a great album, right up there with "Walker's Collectibles". That this album was so good was what made his next one, the live "A Man Must Carry On" such a disappointment

[@UnCagliaritanoInSvezia]

It sounds as Bruce Springsteen is covering Tom Waits

[@SebastianGrantElKiva]

All boomer rock is Springsteen Covering Waits, Or Neil Young covering Dylan, or the Eagles covering the Stones, or Joe Walsh Covering Daft Punk... Whatever, it's all gold. And if there's an original blues version, even better.

[@mrcanarsie]

Definitive version

[@houseryan14]

this is great and it's a great song but I love Jonathan Richman's version best

[@kara1464]

@9496tull aye, me neither... a pleasant surprise

[@geraldolagden2478]

Why didn't you upload "Very Short Time"?

[@TheTacfour]

The music died last night..
