I always wanted to go there and when the waitress asked me what I wanted, I’d start singing the song I want a slaw burger and a bottle of ski, now bring one out to my baby and me 😁
A restaurant by that name never existed. It was called Adolphus Ennis, was just across from the courthouse in Greensburg. And yes it served slaw burgers and ski soda to the band members. Yes I lived in Greensburg for quite sometime.
I don't care who you are I'm 42 my wife is 36 my oldest son is 18 and my youngest of five is 2 and everybody says crank it when the Kentucky head hunters come on .and I can't sing a lick but I rock out so the world can see .God I miss good music
I agree crank that music up and keep on jammin to the good stuff cause it's hard to find anymore. So kick back and enjoy with the new generation it's so hard to find.
@@roserollins9800...... I'm right behind you at 65 and still love the Righteous Brothers, The Everly Brothers, Lobo, and sooooo many more thru the 80s. Good music 🎶 is gone but NOT FORGOTTEN And I crank it up every time I listen
They were my sons first concert at 11. Kentucky Headhunters and Confederate Railroad. He absolutely loved it, and I love sharing my roots with him. Couldn't have picked a better first for him!!!
Rodeo Nights.....Gulfport Mississippi..I was lead bouncer there..that led to a 28 year relationship...man i miss the 90's. Thank you Gentilemen for the great tunesm
My mom passed away a couple of years ago and this was her favorite song and I had forgotten about it for the longest time and then just a couple nights ago I was thinking about my mom and suddenly this song popped into my head reminding me of her. I have a feeling it was my mom reaching down from heaven to say hello..now whenever I want to think of my mama I'll play this song
These dudes ruled. Wrote killer songs that blasted away contemporaries but had fun with it too. Their videos are evidence. Even when Ricky Lee left, they had some good stuff. When Doug Phelps came back. Wow. Listen to stomping grounds if ya like this. Brother Phelps was amazing...the vocal harmonies. Beautiful 2 albums if youre into bluegrass with a southern kick.. But Doug coming back was awesome. Wish they'd all get back together for a solid cd and tour. Here's to hunting heads!
Grew up in the 50's 60's love this music . Not the crap they have today . I am 80 still working and driving over the roads every day. Listening to this kind of music crank it up . Never to old to this kind of entertainment.
I'm ashamed to say I only discovered this great fun tune maybe 2 weeks ago. Keep in mind for many years my choice was classic rock and roll. One thing led to another, I obtained Sirius radio xm 3 years ago this month, it came free first 6 months when I bought a Ford F 150. Slowly but surely Willie's Roadhouse caught my attention. Not just that, I have come to understand country music and what it is that country music fans tell us that makes it so great. I love country music, real country music. Thank god for Hank Williams, he absolutely blows me away. What a singer, I hear in his voice how he influenced none other than George Jones. Peace
When I was little my dad would tell me stories about when he was younger and how he would wash buses and tractor trailers for bands while they were appearing at the state fair. He said these guys were a class act and even invited him to toss the football around with them for a while before the show. Sawyer Brown was another one he got to hang out with. Good times, Dad. :)
Me and my dad were driving truck we pulled into this little Cafe in Tennessee on i40 they pulled in with their bus and sat next to us they were really normal and cool
We need more bars like Dumas Walker's in this country nowadays. Pool tables, beer, babes, bloody knuckles, cracked skulls, broken pool cues, deer heads, harleys.... all the fun stuff!
I've met the boys from Edmonton, I know where the country store is and even remember the old black man that lived to what I was told to be of 109 yrs old. I've been to Dumas Walker on KY. TN. State line. These boys keeping all alive !
i thought Wherever this place is I just want to go there! I bought the Pickin' on Nasville cassette years ago and totally wore it out! Love the Kentucky Headhunters!
The Kentucky headhunters, the country music band that brought the mullet into the mainstream, in their prime, doing their signature song. Thanks for posting this.
Just did an interview with these guys for Nashville Music Guide. Still got it, 48 years of rocking good times. Awesome group of guys. This is what it's all about.
I met all of them at the ky bike rally about 5 years ago. Myself and my then wife were in the liquor store getting beer etc before we got into the dry county and there they were. We talked for probably an hour and they were all cool as hell. Down to earth. The drummer has some funny jokes to tell lmao.
Dumas Walker was my great uncle. He died 1 year and 2 days before I was born. I grew up constantly hearing about his marble playing exploits. I realized that if I picked an odd singular thing to get good at I could be like him. I ended up winning an axe throwing tournament. I was super confused when I heard this song on the radio when I was younger. I wish I could of played marbles with him at family reunions.
My grandpa lived in Monroe Co. KY, and used to drive across the state line into Moss TN to get beer (Monroe was a dry county.) He took me into Dumas Walker's store when I was very little, probably 5 or 6, in the mid-80s, as it was just up the road from the place where he normally went for beer. I don't remember a great deal about the visit, but I remember him doing a trick on the counter with a marble where he shot it with his thumb and it rolled out in a circle and came back to him. It was the coolest thing in the world to me at the time.
+Caleb Arnold Bullshit. It was and is country I grew up to this. Old school Waylon, George, and Conway was the way I grew up and THIS WAS STILL COUNTRY
Nicole Bell You stupid bitch you have no idea what you're talking about so shut up and stop trying to be little miss badass on the internet. You're truly pathetic.
I found some Ski. It was named after a fun weekend water-skiing somewhere around Chattanooga. It’s a citrus flavored soda water. Comes in a green glass bottle. Food City in East Tennessee sells it. I always thought it was some kind of beer until I found some.
I remember my parents playing this on vinyl and cassette in the house when I was a baby. This came out when i was a year old. Heard it on XM the other day for the first time in 2 decades and HAD to see the video.
My mom LOVED this band. I grew up listening to them all the time because she never stopped playing their music. She passed away a week before Thanksgiving :( came here to remember the good times, even if it makes me cry now
REAL COUNTRY MUSIC. i cant stand the majority of todays music. its NOT REAL music. sounds like crap. all ya beyounce lovers n talyor swift lovers. this is real down to earth music. real God given talent
What a tight sound, great harmonies, and musicianship! I was in my early 20's when I first heard this and in my 60's now and it brings back good memories hearing it!
My parents lived in Edmonton KY and they took us to Dumas’s bar. He had my kids stand at the long end of the bar and he shot the marble and it took a swerve and landed in their tiny hands. We all thought it was magical! Not just the kids. My daddy said to him, “the Kentucky Headhunters made you famous, he laughed and said “I no I made them famous.” We loved our visit many years ago.
oh man the best era of country music is right here above us boys. /We Got Hal Ketchum, got David Lee Murphy, Sammy Kershaw, Joe Diffie, and Mel McDaniels. Perfect singers right there for a good day!
It isn't just that the music is so damn good, because it is. It isn't just that it's so much fun to listen to, and to dance to. It isn't just that the guys are so cute (I LOVED all their hair!) and that Jakey is adorable. It's that these videos make you feel like you're right there, dancing with them, having the time of your life. And it's that all these years later, all of that is still true.
These guys are so amazing, not Only talented but just so down to earth! Freddy can sure play some drums with his hands!! Boy did he Ever blow us away :)
Saw them for the first time last night at the Bardstown Bourbon festival. It was actually dang good stuff. My musical tastes have changed over the years. Last night was the first time I ever heard this song, and I'm 58.
Una ... Lol lord yes... Every city seemed to have a bar named after this song .... Great drinking song and a fireball shot to go along with it ... Life is absolutely incredible in so many ways.
I just saw these guys perform at the Marion (ohio) Popcorn Festival. GREAT SHOW!!!! That drummer killed it tonight w/ a 15 minute solo. They even met the fans and gave autographs... I got mine. Very fun night!
The Kentucky Headhunters is an American country rock and Southern rock band. They were founded in 1968 as Itchy Brother, which consisted of brothers Richard Young (rhythm guitar, vocals) and Fred Young (drums) along with Greg Martin (lead guitar, vocals) and Anthony Kenney (bass guitar, vocals). Itchy Brother performed together until 1982, with James Harrison replacing Martin from 1973 to 1976. The Young brothers and Martin began performing as The Kentucky Headhunters in 1986, adding brothers Ricky Lee Phelps (lead vocals, harmonica) and Doug Phelps (bass guitar, vocals) to the membership. With the release of their 1989 debut album Pickin' on Nashville via Mercury Records, the band charted four consecutive Top 40 country singles. A second album for Mercury, Electric Barnyard, did not do as well commercially, and the Phelps brothers left after its release to form Brother Phelps. Kenney re-joined and Mark S. Orr took over on lead vocals for 1993's Rave On!! and a compilation album entitled The Best of The Kentucky Headhunters: Still Pickin' before the band exited Mercury. Orr left and Doug Phelps rejoined in 1996 as lead vocalist for the album Stompin' Grounds. He also led on the Audium Entertainment albums Songs from the Grass String Ranch and Soul, as well as Big Boss Man and a second compilation, Flying Under the Radar, on CBuJ Entertainment. After Kenney's departure, Doug once again became the band's bass guitarist by the release of its next album, Dixie Lullabies, in 2011. The Kentucky Headhunters have released eight studio albums, three compilations, and twenty-three singles, of which the highest-peaking is a cover of the Don Gibson song "Oh Lonesome Me," which the band took to number 8 in 1990. In addition, the band has won three Country Music Association awards, an Academy of Country Music award and a Grammy Award for Best Country Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal, won in 1990 for Pickin' on Nashville. At its peak in the early 1990s, The Kentucky Headhunters were considered a dark horse in country music, due to the significant mainstream attention that the band received despite their rougher sound and the members' rural Southern image.[10][75] In 1991, Entertainment Weekly critic Alanna Nash wrote that although the band did not sell as many albums as contemporaries George Strait or Garth Brooks, "they may just end up redefining country for the '90s" given the diverse range of influences and styles.[20] Billboard critic Ray Waddell called the band "arguably the most consistent and durable Southern rock outfit on the planet."[53]en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Kentucky_Headhunters
Met these guys at a truckstop in Hudson, WI when they were touring in support of this tune... they damn near left the drummer there because he was playing the pinball machine and didn't want to leave!
Remember seeing a few of "The Kentucky Headhunters" as Ronnie McDowell's band members.....of course I remember when Marty Stewart played for Johnny Cash. Great times!!
In the 60's70's80's, there were always places a young person could go, to let a little steam off. By dancing, singing along., maybe a little drinking too. This was a really great song.
I'm still jamming to dumas walker in 2024🤟🍻
So am I 😎
Me to 😊
I'll be jamming to this till the day I die. My kids love their music. Mostly because they're subjected to it every time they're in the truck with me. 😂

Me too!
This was when Country Rock was REAL COUNTRY ROCK!!~

Music doesn't mean you're going to hell. Lol
Why were you supposed is what I meant to say 😃
Yeah thank you Jesus Christ
Just goes to show us that God is always in control. 😇😇😇

He also led on the Audium Entertainment albums Songs from the Grass String Ranch and Soul, as well as Big Boss Man and a second compilation, Flying Under the Radar, on CBuJ Entertainment. After Kenney's departure, Doug once again became the band's bass guitarist by the release of its next album, Dixie Lullabies, in 2011. The Kentucky Headhunters have released eight studio albums, three compilations, and twenty-three singles, of which the highest-peaking is a cover of the Don Gibson song "Oh Lonesome Me," which the band took to number 8 in 1990. In addition, the band has won three Country Music Association awards, an Academy of Country Music award and a Grammy Award for Best Country Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal, won in 1990 for Pickin' on Nashville. At its peak in the early 1990s, The Kentucky Headhunters were considered a dark horse in country music, due to the significant mainstream attention that the band received despite their rougher sound and the members' rural Southern image.[10][75] In 1991, Entertainment Weekly critic Alanna Nash wrote that although the band did not sell as many albums as contemporaries George Strait or Garth Brooks, "they may just end up redefining country for the '90s" given the diverse range of influences and styles.[20] Billboard critic Ray Waddell called the band "arguably the most consistent and durable Southern rock outfit on the planet."[53]en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Kentucky_Headhunters

Real country music right here
Met these guys at a truckstop in Hudson, WI when they were touring in support of this tune... they damn near left the drummer there because he was playing the pinball machine and didn't want to leave!
Shorty Medlock is that really your name or someone you admire?
An old racing buddy came up with that name after a long night of partying... no relation to Ricky Medlock's Dad....
Shorty Medlock Shorty Medlocke I was thinking exactly to the Blackfoot reference to Shorty Medlocke!! how perceptive of you!!! 😀
I hung out there a lot as a kid. Lots of famous people used to stop there. Great memories.

I was there in 1992, it was pretty cool. They were supposed to be having an autograph signing the next day. But of course couldn't stay till then....
I just love playing my drums to this wonderful song wow.
They had a kickass concert in Sault St Marie, Mi casino conference room. A handful of people, but we loved it. Only $10.00. Life is good.
God bless all your comments, & God bless all of you!
Remember seeing a few of "The Kentucky Headhunters" as Ronnie McDowell's band members.....of course I remember when Marty Stewart played for Johnny Cash. Great times!!

In the 60's70's80's, there were always places a young person could go, to let a little steam off. By dancing, singing along., maybe a little drinking too. This was a really great song.
