Great songs and beautiful photos I once heard Joan Baez sing this in Sydney.

Something about the eighties production works well here. The echoey, spacey, remote sparseness...beautiful.

A legendary, haunting, echoing voice from the Old South; Mickey takes you down that long, lonesome country road... where the breezes of sweet years gone by caress the listener lovingly with the luring refrain... 'Come back to the place you remember...to a simpler time, when you felt warmed by the sun and part of the life that was... return to the innocence of youth and the dream of true love found once more....' He has not left us...as long as we open our hearts to listen.....

Your videos and the love that goes into the 'music' is evident and obvious. It's about freedom, prostitution, prison... it's about great photography and it makes me cry every time I hear and watch this.

[@jimincairns]

Beautiful. I love the photos and the transitions. I just posted a live version by his son,Chris.

[@TheCrazyHeart1]

Totally Agree. Been a fan since 1975.

[@CurtisHodgestms]

Even if I owned the copyrights to the photos there's no way I would ask you to remove this moment of magic! Well edited, and it was also the B side of the released "American Trilogy" which I first heard on, "The Old Grey Whistle Test" in 1973. Thank you for your beautiful account of "MableJoy".

There's a verse missing... "On the night before she left, Sleep came and left that Georgia farm-boy With dreams of Georgia cotton and a California wife'..
