PHANTOM 309 ~ Red Sovine ~ Animation

[@thekodiak77]

FINALLY! A proper video showing a MACK instead of a Peterbilt or Kenworth.

[@justjeff53]

Thanks. I did a lot of research on this one.

[@Sgt_Kilborn]

The best part of this song is the very end, where the music comes to an abrupt stop, with an echo of "309". Kind of creepy, but in a good way

[@DirtyShwa]

I always thought that too. Creepy, but in a good way

[@phantomreaper2057]

True but imagine if this happened to you irl what would you do in that scenario lol 😅if you got a lift to a truck stop only to discover that you were dropped off by a ghost

[@Malyss]

My late father was a trucker back in the day. He had a couple of trucker records in our collection, and this song was on one of them. It always captivated me. Your animation earned some nostalgic tears from me this evening. Thank you.

[@justjeff53]

This is the most heartfelt comment I've ever received on any of my videos. God bless you, and God bless your Dad.

[@michigandon]

Yes, I got a lump in my throat watching this as well.

[@jamess.merritt5353]

My dad was a truck 🚚driver and he drove a truck 🚚for over 47 years, this is just why I at times think of and about the songs teddy bear 🧸and teddy 🧸's last ride and it brings back some memories of when and where my dad 👨would drive a truck 🚚 he started driving his truck just after he got out of the United States of America 🇺🇸 navy before he retired from driving a truck 🚚 he was twice nearly killed in two separate tragic truck 🚚accidents and it is the reason why I listen to songs like phantom 👻309- teddy bear 🧸and teddy 🧸's last ride and every time I listen to these 3 songs it does bring tears to my eyes 👀,I'll sign off before I start to cry 😢 10-4 and goodbye.

[@Crusher2100]

Im not even a trucker and this song hits hard every time I hear it.

[@zzzrtboy]

Right?? Tom Waits’s version was the first one I ever heard, couldn’t compare em tho… anyone know if Red Sovine originally wrote it?

[@phantomreaper2057]

I agree but it really shows one of the risks that truckers face although rare compared to some other jobs they sometimes sacrifice their own lives to avoid costing others theirs but making the choice to give up your own life is a lot more difficult than it sounds as instinct for self preservation often kicks in

[@78FullSizeBronco]

This song and true story really pulls at a guy's heartstrings. My granddad started trucking in an old Mack just like this back in the early 50s. Several decades later, I've taken up the torch and continued on the family legacy. Keep the rubber rollin' and the shiny side up fellow drivers!

[@Cammi_Rosalie]

FANTASTIC!! I always thought of Phantom 309 as a '53 Mack LT, and all black & chrome. But Damn if that ain't close! Dude. You gotta animate Giddy-up Go, Gearjammer & the Hobo and Convoy. Just for starters.. This is amazing!

[@justjeff53]

I'm glad you enjoyed it Cammi. I did start out with it black, but it didn't show up well on the dark and rainy parts of the video. So I colored it ghostly grey. I used red to show the difference in the truck before and after the wreck.

[@noahbeeler3180]

[@Audiogeek-kf2ez]

I have never had a song , especially the Midwest style tiny diners, truck stops and country music. A Song that brought a tear to my eye. Truckers can be the most assine people on earth, or the most gracious, giving,and the most selfless people on earth.

[@Zman_fnaf]

God bless the North American trucker. My great grandpa Floyd used to own a trucking company back in the late 50’s and early 60’s. But He died of a heart attack when my grandma was in high school. And I never got the chance to meet him. R.I.P. great grandpa Floyd

[@justjeff53]

I agree completely.

[@Zman_fnaf]

[@pointingdog7235]

GREAT JOB with the animation and video! Here's the scary part of this. This video was nearly how I've always pictured this um encounter happening. Yes I always pictured Big Joes beloved Phantom 309 as a B or L Model Mack.

[@aussiemerican750]

I think I love this so much because it’s not a song it’s an epic. Like a really long poem but it’s still amazing.

[@expediter99]

Our son Steven, was given a little book called "Big Joe the Truck Driver" For story time he would invariably pick it out for me to read. The story followed Big Joe from home to the terminal, pre-trip his rig, hook a load and be off. We saw him in the coffee shop chatting with his pals, driving the road, just a "typical day", making the drop at the customer , pulling the empty back to the yard and signing out. He loved that book. He'd say "me Joe truck driver" and point to his younger brother and say "he little Joe". I would pretend I was a TV reporter and interview Joe truck driver, giving him choices..... Is your truck a Kenworth or a Mack?- it was always a Mack. Is your engine gas or diesel?-always diesel. He always picked the Roadranger transmission. We'd cover the whole rig. He grew up to become a physicist. We lost him 3 1/2 yeas ago, age 43, a ruptured brain aneurysm. I've still got his little book.

[@pointingdog7235]

I have always pictured Phantom 309 as a B Model with a diesel or maybe a gas engine backed up by a Quad Box or a Triplex. That’s not to say that there aren’t any out there that have a Cat or a Cummins and a Roadranger. I am so sorry for your loss. I can’t imagine the pain you are going through losing a child. God Bless. 🤠

[@megateriollamas183]

Good job with this Jeff. I think Big Joe would be proud.

[@jeffreyhickman3871]

I seem to have recently become fascinated by this song 🎧. I cried about it, when I heard it as a child 🧒 of 8 years old (1978). It reminded me of my stepmother, which was in the hospital 🏥 for a big operation then. I was afraid 😱 of the outcome. She was fine, but I seemed to have forgotten about this song until about February of 2020. It came 🆙 on my videos quite often. I never 👎 picked it. I was afraid 😱 I’d cry 😢 if I heard it, being in my Phoenix, Arizona apartment, alone. I know that there’s a great 👍 many 👨 different individuals, and a great 👍 many 👨 ways Big Joe crashed 💥 Phantom 309. I nearly cried over this song 🎧, playing it in October, 2021. It is so different in the 40 years since I heard it, reminding me of my real mother, which died August 12th, 2016, of bladder cancer ♋️. The same goes for my stepmother, which died September 28th of 2020. We think 🤔 she died of a brain 🧠 aneurysm, or a stroke. Red Sovine puts this song 🎧 in a “I know what’s going to happen before it happens” mentality, but in a good 😌 way. It speaks of a “ghost” truck 🛻 driver, that has to let his passenger out, just 🆙 the road. His name is Big Joe (the driver), and he has to make a big turn, 🆙 the road. Yes 👍 the ghostly 👻 sound of “Phantom 309”. I imagine a very steep ascent into the night, in a jumbo jet ✈️, getting away from an employee who was troubling me at work. I also noticed the KZbin handle name as “Justjeff 53”. I coincidentally use this saying with my brother’s girlfriend. I tell her that the person coming in, is “Just Jeff “, such as when I come home 🏠. The animation on this song 🎧 was really great 👍. The dime in the end, that Big Joe’s passenger got to keep. Once again, as the song 🎧 hauntingly trails off, “From Big Joe and Phantom 309”. We lived in Gakona, Alaska in 1978, and my stepmother’s stomach operation was performed in Anchorage, Alaska. I was so torn up 🆙 over this. Once again guys, and gals, I seem to get a thrill out of this, the trailing off, “From Big Joe and Phantom 309”. Happy 😊 Thanksgiving!!🦃. Your friend, Jeff.

I wrote a short story based on this song. It is the centerpiece for the book of truck driver related dark fiction short stories I hope to publish one day. I was a long haul trucker back in the day and I got to meet Red Sovine at the 76 Truckstop south of Nashville on I-65. He drove a older model tour bus with his logo on it. He had a CB in it and would sing bits of his songs over the air if the radio traffic was light. He also sold his records and 8 track tapes and would autograph them for you.

Awesome job, especially the drawings of the B model interior. Props for the truck stop exterior and the trucks passing by the diner windows as well. Tres cool!

This animation for the song really captures the backstory of the song, my grandpa used to drive truck across country and now he’s at the ages where those days are just memories and he’s just getting older. My grandpa is something special to me, when his day comes I’ll be thinking about him driving truck and maybe he’ll pick some people up like big Joe

[@PzAbtlg101bubi]

Anfang der 90er Jahre hatte ich mir eine Kassette mit Truckersongs am Grenzübergang von Belgien zu den Niederlanden gekauft. Daruf war auch "Phatom 309". Während ich das Lied hörte, habe ich oft geweint, obgleichich schon fast 50 Jahre alt war.

[@michigandon]

All these years I've always visualized "Phantom 309" as being an R Model (Think Rubber Duck's truck only sporting ten times as much chrome and covered in about a million chicken lights). Probably because it was the most common when I first heard this song as a kid. But a B Model makes much more sense, in the grand scheme of things. Also dig the Seeburg B as well as the 3W1 wallboxes in the Truck Stop. Nicely done!

Me fascina todo lo antiguo(el que comenta en el celular de mi querida mamá es su hijo), nunca he tenido camiones o arrastres pero soy entusiasta de estás bellezas rodantes sean Mack,Kentworth,International,Diamond Reo,Peterbuilt,Freightliner(mi inglés es fatal al deletrear)GMC,Brockway,Detroit Diesel,Caterpillar,Cummins etc...acá en el País donde vivo de habla hispana según tengo entendido si alguien es historiador y conocedor de estos ambientes en lo cuáles se desarrollaban todo tipo de anécdotas increíbles,interesantes,que son historias veraces que no te permiten enzorrarte por qué para mí es genuino de interés como en este ejemplo de la canción PHANTOM 309 de 1967 lo más cercano a esto y no fue tanto involucrando a un chófer de camión con la alegoría de un camión Mack creo B-51 no sabría que año y un autoestopista (primera vez que leo que a una persona pidiendo un aventón en la carretera le llaman así) y por lo que entendí lo dejo a este "autoestopista"en una parada de camiones no sin dejarlo con un centavo o algún valor monetario para que se comprara un café y más tarde en esa carretera este chófer del B-51 en un cruce de esa carretera venía un autobús escolar contrario a él y en embestida en ese cruce chocaron y de aquí está canción que más es una narración de un personaje en primera persona con un fondo musical propio del lugar en que ocurrió este evento en el lugar que vivo hay unas carreteras que zigsaguean en curvas entre montañas y en una de esas curvas cerradas hay un cuento de camino que más parece tema de UFO que de una alegoría de un objeto rodante en este caso de un camión de 18 ruedas pues aquí fue de un accidente no se si involucró medios de transportación pero que si se cuenta de una figura fantasmagórica que aparece a altas horas de la noche y quizás se podrán percibir ruidos en esa área y por lo angosto de esa curva cerrada el que vaya por ahí está obligado por la geografía del terreno del lugar reducir a velocidad lenta de su vehículo por lo que tengo entendido en esa área que ocurrió tal suceso de quizás un accidente automovilístico y que resultó en la aparición supuesta de una figura fantasmagórica han cerrado tal curva haciendo en esa carretera donde estaba esa curva otro trayecto donde el transeúnte sea de a pie o en auto o camiones etc no tengan que entrar obligadamente a esa curva y pasen de largo y eviten el lugar a diámetros de distancia de esa curva cerrada sin embargo son una de esas carreteras que cuando antes que existiera las nuevas autopistas estás carreteras rurales y todas sus curvas era lo que había para comunicar a los pueblos y son carreteras pintorescas conectadas con la bella naturaleza y especialmente los lugares donde los comensales en esos vehículos van a satisfacer sus necesidades gastronómicas de ricos platos autóctonos de mi país y está curva en esta carretera importante de mi pais donde obligadamente las personas visitan a diario existe un cúmulo de restaurantes y lugares para estar que siempre estará corriendo en las mentes de los lugareños tal cuento de camino y lo más curiosos y quizá valientes irán allí buscando degustar los alimentos autóctonos del lugar,estar en sus alrededores quedándose en lugares de alquiler en esa carretera y principalmente tener cercanías con ese evento fantasmagórico,se que en mi País de habla hispana por lo menos ya estoy terminando mi comentario como dije antes aquellos conocedores de historias americanas del transporte de camiones de marca americanas como las que mencioné hace un ratito en mi País con esa alegoría en representación de un camión Mack B-51 en esa carrera estadounidense aquí en mi País según registros si es que al traducir del ingles al español para que mi persona entendiera en los anales de la historia de la manufactura de camiones Mack para aquellos años(creo) sería de los 50's a los 60's leí que debido a lo agreste del terreno geográfico en mi País de muchos terrenos de elevada altura y de bajadas y lugares rurales de caminos difíciles, está marca de camión Mack tuvo que desde ese tiempo hacer ajustes en sus bellezas rodantes no se si fue en su tren motriz o chasis o motor no se en que parte de esos camiones pero por lo que pude entender así ocurrió (me corregirán los conocedores de la historia americana del transporte)un último ejemplo que se sale un poco de este tema del PHANTOM 309 pero que si tiene que ver con los camiones por mi genuino interés en ellos fue la experiencia de un modelo Mack de los modernos de estos años 2000 frente a mi casa en mi País de habla hispana,era la primera vez que veía un camión Mack de volteo de cemento venir en reversa cambiando velocidades en plena cuesta empinada y con cuántos quintales de peso en su chasis por lo enorme del camión y arriba de este el peso del cemento en volteo en su urna que le construyeron en su factoria para estos efectos de mezclar el cemento,me quede estupefacto y lo diestro del chófer en esa pendiente empinada que si no anda con todos sus sentidos alertas por lo menos a un lado de esta cuesta hay una caída de varios pies de profundidad cercana a una quebrada,pero lo mejor fue venir en carrera subiendo esa pendiente en reversa (yo digo)y subiendo cambios,fue increíble....

It would be about as coincidental as what this accident would be at random, to meet a group of 25 or so people somewhere. A bar, restaurant, or store 🏬 (for example). Although they’d be about 72, to 80 years old now, it would be very much a surprise to hear 👂 them start ⭐️ talking about being on a school 🏫 bus 🚌. Like 👍, “Hey, we were on that bus🚌”, when a truck 🛻 swerved to miss us. He was such a great 👍 person to sacrifice his life to save us all, and the name of the truck 🛻 was Phantom 309”. I’ve never 👎 met these people, (ranging in age from 6 years old, to being teenagers), but it probably would make my jaw drop to. I’d be completely speechless 😶. Once again, here we go, my favorite 😻 verse, at the very end of the song 🎧, as it echoes out so hauntingly, “Big Joe and Phantom 309”. Your friend, Jeff.
