- This Tom T. Hall-penned tune was one Keith rarely performed live. This was recorded during a tour of Holland he embarked on just weeks before his untimely death. Keith had developed quite a following in Europe, which started with his appearance at Wembley Stadium in London and the release of his debut single in the UK, "The Birmingham Turnaround."
This is superb. That "dislike" was caused by someone mashing the wrong button because they couldn't see through the tears. This is real country. There is no substitute.
wow , such emotion,its a damn shame that you cant hear music like this on the radio. Whatever they play on the radio AIN'T Country. This Defines country music to me
If I were alive back then I would've definitely attended this concert, what a voice
All I can say, what a damn shame, Keith had to leave us so early , what amazing artist he was, thank you very much for this album.
I was lucky enough to see Keith live at Morehead State University in Morehead, KY in the fall of 1985! He was AMAZING! What a talent he was...his music will truly live forever!
He is still Very Missed...And no other can come close to him...
Pansye Gibbs true very true we lost Keith Whitley to soon to alcohol poisoning at the age of 34 years old when he passed away gone to soon
please dont take this off youtube,this is the best song keith did.written by the great tom t hall
A great song sung with such feeling a gift that Keith had. He is missed.
what a gem this is
Keith whitley and his band should be in the country music hall of fame ,, they are awesome ! Legendary. Thanks for posting this beautiful song it's a great one, by one of country's greatest !

A great singer, a great song. It doesnt get better. Keith also hit a grand slam with another great Tom T Hall song - "Another Town".
Thanks for the reply - I live in the Czech Republic now and there are lots of Keith Whitley fans here as well. Our Bluegrass band also does its best to promote his legacy - we recorded the Birmingham Turnaround and Don't Close Your Eyes on our first CD and are in the process of recording Miami, My Amy for our second release. Thanks for promoting Keith's music . . . it's just so much better than anything you get to hear nowadays . . .
Thank you!
Every song Keith Whitley sang was amazing and I don't know how any one could argue that his songs were absolutely beautiful I just wish he could have been saved country music today would have been a completely different picture more artists would have been inspired to sing and write like that
Tom T. Hall Wrote this. Amen to the singing.
Wow! Cool! It constantly amazes me how many people from Europe have been touched by Keith. He's got quite a following in many European countries such as England, Germany, Holland, Greece, etc. And yes, Tom T. is still alive and doing his thing. A phenomenal storyteller he is, too!
Just heard this for the first time even though I loved keith..I am moved to tears..thank you so much...now I need to go play it again...and again...
No one could tell a story quite like Tom T. Thanks, Jeff.
Does it sound like he's feeling it?
Man . . . thanks for putting this up.
There is no sound to the video
@namesvoorbugvall Wow!! Scotland!! Well, welcome aboard! And much thanks for stopping by!
amaging country singer... damn good song and lyrics... rip Whitley
Beautiful song.
Just an amazing song from Tom T Hall and there are loads of fine versions from all manner of artists and Keith was an amazing talent. He does it justice without question.
Well thank you for posting this so we can all enjoy it. Keith hit a home run with this one...just perfect.
Hard to believe he would be gone in just a few weeks after this concert This guy could take any song and make it his own
Wonderful.
We all miss Keith

Thanks for stopping by and for your nice comment!
You're right, I forgot Tom T. did write "Another Town." That's a great song, too! Thanks for stopping by!
Great song by Tom T, and his version is the one to measure others by, but Keith Whitley was the absolute master of the sad song, and this version is terrific. Would that he had lived to record a studio version. But would his label have tolerated a stripped down backing like this?
if Keith and Garth Fundis has a say the answer would have been yes.
Wow, Keith, what a vocal performance again . . . I wish I'd been there - coming from Holland I feel kinda guilty . . . well, huge thanks for making this available on the net!!!
By the way - I think Tom T. Hall is still alive, kickin', pickin' and writin' - hope I'm right.
LOVE ALWAYS ...
Great song!!!
No, this was from a bootleg concert recording from a concert he put on in Holland in the spring of '89, when he made the trip to Europe to make an appearance on the Wembley Country Music Festival that year in London. The few tracks I have from this concert are relatively poor quality--low volume, etc. It was not recorded from the soundboard.
One of the greatest songs that I have ever heard. A GEM ! Wonderfully performed by an artist that would have been another "George Jones", had he not passed on. Tom T. Hall composes the BEST ballads of all time, like this one. Give his "It Sure Can Get Cold In Des Moines" a listen, too.
iam just a new keith fan he is the king of country his voice is magic iam from ratho scotland
Good job with this Tom T Hall song
We lost Keith Whitley to soon to alcohol poisoning at the age of 34 years old when he died from alcohol poisoning
If Carson Chamberlain’s steel break at 1:59 doesn’t give you chills I don’t know what will. Keith insanely gifted on his own, but his band really gave him an edge.
Miami was almost as talented as Keith
4 days from now, this will have been 30 years ago
@jamiegobangbang hi man just got your message i love whitley and country music my friends laugh at me for it
but they dont anything about it hi to u and good drumming pal keith music will live forever it pure magic it a shame there no country music radio 24 hours a day in scotland thank god for the net peace man
unreal as always
My first time to hear it. If nobody told me, I would guess it was Vern Gosdin. I had never noticed the similarity in phrasing that I hear on this song.
Wish Kieth was here to see our Prez DJT 45 takin on the Swamp/Cesspool. 1/31/2018.
I'm sorry but what you said almost sounds laughable, as Keith Whitley has far surpassed any "peers". His voice is far better than any other country singer ever.
@jamiegobangbang hi man hi to u keith whitley is magic i love his music
he messes up the lyrics of the second verse and yet its still by far the best version ive. ever ever heard
the great
Never heard this one til now and it is fabulous...have searched all over amazon for this with no luck. Anyone know if this was ever put to CD or casette??
yes he is still kicking..lol, his son dean hall is very good too...
Great ! Many thanks for this gift. Where on steel guitar ? (on Tom T., Pete Drake played the steel guitar). Best wishes from France. JO
+jo luttringer Most likely it was Carson Chamberlain, who was the steel guitarist in Keith's band.
It’s Carson Chamberlain. Right before the steel solo he even said “Play it Carson”
The Keith videos have no sound to them why don't they have any Sound ????
Superb choice of material. Compares quite favorably to Tom T Hall's original
Ok so. Is this about actually flying over the house. Or getting so stoned / drunk that you’re “flying over the house” a play on words, while the wife’s asleep ? Or both
@namesvoorbugvall Im just across the bridge in Dalgety Bay!! :) Hello from another Scottish Whitley fan :)
