Dear John Letter Lounge Jerry Jeff Walker

[@tedmohr6353]

Great album, every song is so Jerry Jeff, great steel guitar!

[@CamilleCullen-ow6qj]

This music rocks! New county music sucks.

[@josephmichaelgarrett2216]

One of my favorite Jerry Jeff tunes.

[@randburr58]

Best album ever, period!

[@russhook6595]

JUAN song does NOT make an album! Is there anything else close to "Dear John" on the album? I'd like to hear it if so! (=

[@logankolb7308]

@@russhook6595 listen to the full “Its a good night for singing” album, I’ve heard every album JJW ever made and it’s my favorite. Leroy and Looking for the Heart of a Saturday Night are a couple of my favs

[@dingos8babies]

A guy that I met in Waco, Ricky Cardwell, wrote this song. We were camping on Lake Waco way back then. Campfires ,guitars, new friends and good times..:)

[@swlafollett9963]

It's a great song

[@russhook6595]

Tell Ricky that he HIT THE JACKPOT with this Juan! I am trying to place the YEAR i was ENJOYING this little ditty!? Wild guess would be 1977ish?

[@maryyousaf2729]

@@russhook6595: Jerry Jeff put this on an album ‘It’s a Good Night for Singing’ in 1976. An album that is not available on iTunes ☹️. And it’s not on any of his other albums either, as far as I can tell.

[@tennesseewalt3513]

Real old-school stuff. Excelllent.

[@recsec]

Damn this is just good music right here . I have it on the lp It's a Good Night for Singing. On vinyl no less. Sure wish Jerry could get some radio play like he used toi back in the day. Now they don't even play him on the classic country stations. Sad.

I just got to thinking about this song while I was out picking up stuff in the yard. I had to come in and look it up, glad to find it, I hadn't heard it in probably 30 years.

[@WindNSand]

First time I heard this .. shooting pool with my cousins in the Starlight Lounge (Star Light Star Bright First Bar on the Right) 1977 Kennedale, Texas.

[@rekfan59]

i believe this is the best album ever not on cd

[@jdb10715]

Down in the dumps? Put this song on and I bet you might feel a lot better. Just finished playing this about 7X in a row. BTW is it possible for me to find that Dear John Letter Lounge? I'd love to meet all those characters after Jerry Jeff' introducing them to me.

[@travisray9924]

This sounds great. I have the original lp and just bought the Raven cd reissue. Worked with Ricky when this came out in 1976. Best song on the album.

[@DeserokaLittlewing]

Yeah Russell, I knew Ricky way back then too!! We drank a few Lone Star together. In one of those DJLL places. Wonder where he is these days? He was an electrician as well as a talented song writer. Good times!!!

[@dave25239]

@recsec Would`nt be sweat to have our own radio station just to play what we know everyone likes?

[@russhook6595]

You SWEATY too??? L0L

[@russhook6595]

TBH, I used to take my 45s to discos in the 70s-80s to LIVEN UP the crowds! I couldn't believe the DEAD DOWNBEAT CRAP the POTHEAD DJs used to play!

[@dave25239]

@nickatnoon61 Note the tangy twang in the beat.What Hank Williams SR song has the same endiing as this one?

[@russhook6595]

I am 67 in 2020, so I missed Hank in his prime, but this song TBH DIDN'T REMIND ME OF HANK. It's got a sound all its own! RATED UP THERE IN MY TOP 10 C&W HITS!

[@russhook6595]

STEEL GUITAR has to be the BEST part of C&W music! Right now, my FAV video is the Haggard Boys Lonesome Fugitive!

[@coach6778]

That is real and timeless. I know I. Older bit that there young lady is country and western I grew up with. Call me and I buy the drinks and the jukebox

[@dave25239]

@nickatnoon61 I really think Im Hank SR. reincarnated

[@russhook6595]

Ha Ha!!! I may have been there with you BROTHER! I was never shy putting another quarter in the jukebox after a few cold juans! L0L THe STEEL GUITAR OBVIOUSLY MAKES THIS TUNE!!!

[@coach6778]

Not sure bout who can see this. I'm a very successful executive type. Bu I don't care. What the fuck do you mean ....real old school?
