One of the greatest songs ever written and one of my absolute favorites. To hear the whole story is heartbreaking but I would listen to every story Marty wanted to tell about his father.

I saw the promoter when I arrived at the show and sure enough he had 3 pics for me signed and all. I was getting 2 for my friends and one for me.
