It was Hank Williams Tonight, that absolutely slew me with the first line the first time I heard it. I had a tape my friend had made for me, which was on the other side of the tape. I played it by mistake. But, as I was walking out of my room to go to shower, that first line nailed me to the floor. I listened to the whole song. Again and again. Slowly I would entertain the previous or next song until I had absorbed what I know now to be Live at Greune Hall. I asked my friend, "WHO IS THAT ON THE OTHER SIDE?". He slowly fed me tape after tape of Jerry Jeff, which I played but nothing else for 3 years. I realize now that was half my lifetime ago, and I caught on late, (1997). I know everyone has their JJW story, but I can't help but see the divine hand at work that day. Bc, I never turned the tape over, and Jerry Jeff to me is such an artist of consequence. In my life anyway.
Jerry Jeff Walker uses the universal language of music of expressing what is being HUMAN.
“For my waking thoughts of you are but extensions of a dream..” gives me chills every time.
Miss you Jerry Jeff. You were the best.
Jerry Jeff puts a smile on your face, a tear in your eye, or involves you in a story that captivates you.
Correct, I was splaterred when I heard of his death. My closest friends wondered, you hate country.....this is different
I first heard Jerry back In the mid seventies and followed him his whole career .
RIP Jerry Jeff 🕊😢
Jerry Jeff gave me a soundtrack for my life.
I miss Jerry Jeff Walker - I Feel Like hank Williams Tonight is one of my favourite songs! He made an excellent video when it first came out back in the 1980's - wish I could see it again!
Thank you. Rest in peace.
God Bless Chris Wall my dear friend!
I love this song so much.
I am so glad I am able to listen to these songs anytime I need them to get me through another night!
Best song He ever sang ! I've alway's felt the exact way.
I have these kinds of nights also and nobody can help me through them like Jerry Jeff! 3:12
So sad I’ll never see him in concert again. It is a fifty love affair with his music that will never end. You were one of a kind, Jacky Jack!
I love that man! Always will.
For my Son
RIP JJW
I keep coming back to this one and Little Bird
Beautiful song written by Chris Wall! Who also recently passed away!
@@douglasstudeman5137 JJW was good. Chris was a friend and the greatest. No one can sing a Chris Wall song the way he did! He is missed terribly!
