It was 1985 my first trip to Nashville and I met and heard Dean Dillon's "It's your love that makes you sexy." I came home to Boston where we mostly got unhappy trucker songs and I told everyone:"Country MUSIC is going to make it big everywhere!" John Payne. Boston
I just turned 70 last month saw lots of same bands. Leon, Johnny Winter (same concert Columbia University 1971.I had never heard of him before Tuesday night by accident but then watched entire video Mean this with all respect he looks like a cross between Leon Russell, willy Nelson and actor Sam Elliot
What a talent we all have missed out on other than his song writing abilities. In my opinion he is just as talented vocally, musically as willie,george,allen or a bunch of other famous country artis.
This man is from my hometown in of about 15 thousand people about 40 miles North of Knoxville TN. He is a great example of a man that chased his dream completely on his own and became one of country music’s greatest songwriters. He is an inspiration to everyone who believes in themselves.
I lived in Nashville for many years, and would go see Dean sing whenever he would perform at different places. I remember the first time was at Opryland in the late 70's or early 80's. I also saw him at the Nashville Palace. It would be many years later, while I was living and working for the USDA-Forest Service at Wrangler Horse Campground at Land Between the Lakes, that I would get to sit by Dean's fire at his campsite, where he would graciously entertain many of us with his music. Every time he visited our campground in Kentucky, which was about 100 miles north of Nashville, he would share his stories of horseback riding out west in the Rockies and other places with us. This man is a true national treasure, and one of the nicest most down to earth people I have ever met from the music industry, and as my husband worked many years at Opryland I met a lot of them. In my opinion, there will never be any other writer as prolific and brilliant as Dean Dillon. I live far away from Nashville now in Florida, but I would so love to see him come down here for a performance.
@Kathi Berry That's so sweet of you to say Dear🤠. Well thanks once again for the love and support you've shown towards my music career 😉 it really means a lot, I'm so overwhelmed🤠 may I know how long you’ve been a fan of my music 🎶
A talented guy and a friend of Gary Stewart who wrote some of Gary’s hits! Gary died too too soon and took his own life and robbed us of his talent and a passel of great songs we never got to hear! RIP Gary Stewart
This is a quietly magnificent show and the best time I've had with a total stranger in many years. A gift from God that I stumbled upon this - perhaps the greatest entertainer of or time
This video alone is worth everything to any unknown dreamer of songwriting. It can happen and the right people can and will come into your life and give you that one leg up. Bless you Dean Dillon!
I don’t know how I stumbled across this but he’s really amazing. I was continuously blown away, song after song, story after story. He is such a gifted, talented person.
This song is the song that I said is exactly like the same story that happened to me when I was approximately 21-22. I never went out. It was rare and memorable. Total gentleman.. I went home. He went home. Nothing more. He told me he was going to write a song about it.
Stumbled onto this and makes me wonder how many other treasures are buried in these One's and Zeros ? Just spectacular ! In True Country fashion ! Began with a Religious song, and ended with a GOD BLESS YOU ! Folk's like you Sir that keep me believeing in this mess called Life ! And Thank You, for that ! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
If.... IF I could turn back the clock...... How many times have we said this... But I would flip burgers AND WRITE SONGS & be homeless in Nashville until I could score me some hits..... of something or great songs 🤠🤠🤠
I so would love to meet this guy. The stories that he isn't talking about are the ones ID love to here. Plus I love long hair on a man. Product of the 60s.
What a stroke of luck to experience this Songwriter - just showed up right here. I'm almost hypnotized by His stories, and Musics. I'm even becoming a better writer mySelf as I'm hearing this. I'm rushing off to my pianos now. Thank You for this.
I'm an aspiring song writer/outlaw country perfomer. A part of me always credited George Strait to my want to perform for folks, and that may be true to this day. However I realized after watching Mr. Dean that he is the one I want to emulate.
At first i said Who..then what an hour and 20mins any one thing at this moment wasnt getting more than 10 seconds of my time; then I listened. The single most serendipitous moment ive ever experienced. It was exactly what i was seaking a place where i could be transformed in peace and comfort! Thank you Dean Dillon love bro
Dean Dillon ? I’ve never heard of him but I’m glad I ran across this video ! He is a real down to earth cool dude ! His voice and mannerisms will mesmerize you and you will be so interested and wanting to hear his voice keep talking about his life and singing ! He also has that look of someone you would be drawn too and want to be friends ! Great video Dillon ! He has a new fan right here !
@Glenn Edwards That's so sweet of you to say Dear🤠. Well thanks once again for the love and support you've shown towards my music career 😉 it really means a lot, I'm so overwhelmed🤠 may I know how long you’ve been a fan of my music 🎶
@T.Graham Brown OH my Lord !! I have been a Huge Fan of yours for Decades !! My entire family ,and friends , have always loved your incredible voice and soulful delivery !!!❤ You Sir are a Country Music Legend ,and Treasure !!!❤ I love watching and listening to you sing on the Country Family Reunion !!❤ Your song, " Turn The Water Into Wine " Is Phenomenal, of course with you singing it !! I just wanted you to know that you are a Spiritual Inspiration to me and many others around the World 🌎 God Bless You T.Graham Brown 🙏😇
@angela G lmbo!✔ Absolutely 💯✔ Wow ! 👏 I was more than surprised ,to say the least 😄 Like a K id in a Candy Store 🍬 :) This was a really Great Video ! I WHAT a Treat !!✔ Stay Blessed @angela G !!✔
Classic Dean D. I spent some time around this man several years ago...cross paths a few times since...and still I am speechless hearing so many of these songs. I perform several of them and never ever say "here's a George Strait song"...but "here's a Dean Dillon song." I mean this man makes these songs come alive. My mentor and dear friend Larry Butler introduced me to him and several other country songwriters and great talents all. But, of all of them...this guy's songs just stuck in my head. I hardly even played any country music back then and today I can guarantee you when I play there's always a Dean Dillon song in my set! He truly is the "James Taylor" of country music! Good job also in this production...good sound, editing and production! Gus H.
Growing up I remember reading the liner notes on George Strait's albums and kept seeing the name "Dean Dillon". I thought this guy must be really good if he was on every King George album. Turns out he's a lot better than that. Thank you for all the wonderful music, Mr. Dillion.
Think maybe I'm speaking for a few of us here: DD deserves to be a name we in the C/W tribe know and appreciate a hell of a lot more than we seem to. Thanks to a good friend, I was just turned on to this video. Hey: do likewise, people, and spread the good word. And thanks of course for posting this video
@Kat That's so sweet of you to say Dear🤠. Well thanks once again for the love and support you've shown towards my music career 😉 it really means a lot, I'm so overwhelmed🤠 may I know how long you’ve been a fan of my music 🎶
@Tonya Harmon Thank you once again for your love and the affection you’ve shown towards my music,I really appreciate that. I’ve been a passionate, affectionate and a loyal singer🎶. Do you mind if we text somewhere private?
Man I am so glad I found this today. Worth every drop. It was awesome to hear the songs I knew well, growing up singing and playing but it was just as fun to hear some songs I didn't know he wrote. I dont know what I enjoyed more, the songs here or the stories behind them. Thank you Dean Dillon. LEGEND!
I so enjoyed the story of his life. What a journey ! The music the memories. He sure made others famous and even better with his words and melodies in great music. Thanks for sharing !

Iam glad l meet you today threw your music and life story enjoyed you very much lam a true lover of all muisic that feeds the soul and you truly do that with your talent lam nothing but a dreamer l will be seventy 9ooe day of August UA-cam is great
Dean is a Legend and I'm glad he got himself straightened out. It's a hard life. The Smoking, Drinking, helps get the material along with them 2-5 am quiet times. I know I did it for about 5 years. Enjoyed the show Dean.👍🎸✝️☮🇺🇸
He could pass as Sam Elliott's twin. He even sounds like him. Such a laid back man and great music as well. Such a pleasure to listen to him, and I'm glad I come across this.
Thank you for sharing this intimate evening with us Mike Cotton Productions-- Dean Dillon's story is so interesting; your team did a wonderful job of capturing how captivating and magical any evening with him is!
Dean Dillion is a great Song Writer and an inspiration to all of us singer song writers who love to express their lives through Song which Dean does so well. Honestly I think it’s a gift from God because God Loves Country music & Dean Dillion Songs as I believe he would love my songs if I was brave enough to publish them which I need a push in the right direction to do just that because I believe all things are possible through God and the inspirations of whom we align 🎼ourselves with through their 🎼🎵music we love so much. “ Life is a Song I’m so honored that we all can sing along” Keeping Country Music Alive One Song at a time with God’s blessing & enough pain to pour out of 🎼The Holy Grail & Song Book of Life. 🎶🎵🎼🙏. God always listens to those with something to say or sing as We are his muse making Forever Beautiful 🌹Through Harmony & Bliss that keep🎶 The Magic of Music 🎼Alive Forever. 💕
The guitar really sounds nice. A combination of guitar, mic, and control booth EQ (and good soulful playing). Excellent sound. I should go further here... the voice and guitar mix and the reverb is just super. You can hear a whisper and the overall quality of the audio is about as good as it gets.
Absolutely excellent sound and balance ... however there's no mic on the guitar, it's all piezo-electric. But it's also the one tone down tuning, and the "drop D" that turns to be a "drop C" that gives the guitar that special "harp" sound.
wow beautiful voice guitar and opening song ..im new to this mans talent but the first thought was if sam Elliot and willie Nelson had a kid ..his name wohld be Dean..sings a lot like some a willies songs ..great video wish i could have been there..
I knew about dean 32 years ago. I was a George Strait fan and I knew Dean wrote a lot of the songs George did. So, I bought some of Dean’s albums. Always been loved him. His songs are magically good.
Wow I’m not a music geek ,I love to listen to all kinds of music! And you don’t realize the great minds that’s behind the scenes. What a great song writer and a stage presence.
Don't know how this video popped up for me, but I plugged in my old fender and tweeked in that sweet tube saturated sound I love so much... And I turned Dillon up and did some nice slow leads in accompaniment..... And I can't remember enjoying playing soooo much! Glad I stumbled onto this, and as for you, Dillon, if you ever want an accompaniment, look me up, I'd do it for free; and you are perty easy for me to harmonize with, in certain spots of your songs!!! Thank you man, I just spent the most enjoyable couple hours I can remember in a long time..... just one little favor tho, don't ask me to cut my hair...
This was a awesome video and it just popped up. I had no idea about the back story. About all the songs I grew up with. Came about this man has a story to tell.
This is the best song writer video ever made.
Thank You ! Please Share
Agree.
The best song writer ever? You are outta your mind. Good story teller .....Sure.... a good Song writer.... Naaaaaaa.
Watch Tennessee Whiskey too….🎸
I could listen to his stories all day. He is free from alcohol and pot, and he is really cool. Thank you Dean and Mrs. Dillon for the time.
It was 1985 my first trip to Nashville and I met and heard Dean Dillon's "It's your love that makes you sexy."
I came home to Boston where we mostly got unhappy trucker songs and I told everyone:"Country MUSIC is going to make it big everywhere!"

This is my single favorite video on youtube. Dean is one of the kings of country music!
Thank you so much Dave Barnes and I are very proud of this production
This deserves its on Netflix special. The man is a national treasure

A fantastic listen now I'm a huge fan of someone who two hours ago I had never heard of
Born in 72’ and the biggest George Strait fan ever; so glad I saw this video to see where the magic came from…..#🎼🎸👑George✨
OMG. The tears started at the 1st song about jesus. WHAT A ONCE IN A MILLENNIAL TALENT. God bless you Mr. Dillon.
That's the Holy Spirit using Dean to speak to you 🥲🙏☝
A talented guy and a friend of Gary Stewart who wrote some of Gary’s hits! Gary died too too soon and took his own life and robbed us of his talent and a passel of great songs we never got to hear! RIP Gary Stewart
Grew up on Gary Stewart! Well, when your from Vero Beach that's what you did! My Dad and Uncle worked with him at Piper! R.I. P Gary!
Gary Stewart a favorite in this household.
Great song . I just went to the Flora Bama. My son took grandkids from Alaska to Alabama. Had to show me. Next time I go back ill go in the evening.
This is a quietly magnificent show and the best time I've had with a total stranger in many years. A gift from God that I stumbled upon this - perhaps the greatest entertainer of or time
That was not enough time for me
Up to me saying that you are a friend of mine and I have not found anything yet you can call me BACK

It was very nice reminded me when my Dad Dennis Young wrote a song called 1 women man with his friend Ed Massion
What pleasure that was to listen to! Made my day!
Stumbled onto this and makes me wonder how many other treasures are buried in these One's and Zeros ?

You have to be skilled at the craft of song writing.
Dean Dillion has that gift/skill.
Go chase your dreams don't give up..

Good luck man I’m pulling for you!

A while,I love UA-cam and Serius XM,the Highway and Y2K,proud of your videos
@@t.grahambrown9049No,I don't believe you are the real Dean
The guitar really sounds nice. A combination of guitar, mic, and control booth EQ (and good soulful playing). Excellent sound. I should go further here... the voice and guitar mix and the reverb is just super. You can hear a whisper and the overall quality of the audio is about as good as it gets.

That's exactly what I was thinking when he started playing! I couldn't believe how dialed in they had that guitar.
Your right
Brand new nylon strings .....
I love hearing people talk about the intricacies of guitar. ❤️
wow beautiful voice guitar and opening song ..im new to this mans talent but the first thought was if sam Elliot and willie Nelson had a kid ..his name wohld be Dean..sings a lot like some a willies songs ..great video wish i could have been there..
I knew about dean 32 years ago. I was a George Strait fan and I knew Dean wrote a lot of the songs George did. So, I bought some of Dean’s albums. Always been loved him. His songs are magically good.
He looks, sounds & acts like Ray Wylie Hubbard.
Love them both.
Thank you UA-cam for this suggestion
Wow
I’m not a music geek ,I love to listen to all kinds of music!
And you don’t realize the great minds
that’s behind the scenes.
What a great song writer and a stage presence.
Best hour and 20 mins Ive spent in a while . Great performance !
Truly grateful to come across this. Dillion is one of a kind and really enjoyed this. This is true inspiration for others. 🤠👍🎸🎙🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎼🎬❤❤❤❤❤❤🇺🇸
I love writers of music. This is a good show
His songs are always new to me...
Don't know how this video popped up for me, but I plugged in my old fender and tweeked in that sweet tube saturated sound I love so much... And I turned Dillon up and did some nice slow leads in accompaniment..... And I can't remember enjoying playing soooo much! Glad I stumbled onto this, and as for you, Dillon, if you ever want an accompaniment, look me up, I'd do it for free; and you are perty easy for me to harmonize with, in certain spots of your songs!!! Thank you man, I just spent the most enjoyable couple hours I can remember in a long time..... just one little favor tho, don't ask me to cut my hair...
Solid Gold!!!! What a find.
What a great couple of icons. Dean and florabama lounge 👍
