    I had just joined the Marine Corps and being a black dude it was strange at that time to see someone like me jamming to this but I was always ahead of time when it came to music. And this just set me into a zone I didn't want to go out of. Today at 64 when I'm riding and it comes on I love it when that road is right when the weather is great when the tent is full and my mind is clear. I just go to that zone of yesterday

      Billy Jones is playing the Gibson guitar here. I saw these guys around 1994 in Madison Wisconsin. This was their last song. I was in front of the stage when they walked off. I offered Hughie a cig from my pack of Marlboro's. He took one and put his guitar pick in my Marlboro pack.

    In March 1976, at Winterland, I was sitting on the floor close to the stage listening to the Outlaws, (who were the middle act between Paris with Bob Welsh, and Lynyrd Skynyrd). As the Outlaws were playing, some rando guy near me asked if they were any good. I was shocked. I said, "Just listen to them!" For me, "Green Grass" was the highlight of the night. They blew me away! For me, Skynyrd did not top them. One of the best live songs ever.

      Alright, Alright, ALL RIGHT ! I've heard enough about it being perfect, & never missing a note. I have, over the course of 2 weeks (actually15 days) have METICOUSLY transcribed the entire 24 odd minute Magnum Opus...(actually I QUIT AT MEASURE 876....the drums I'm slow as hell on, and it became a bit excessive halfway through, ...8 hrs a day ,10 the first 2 days....when the other drummer came in I began getting old...) -of course I included repeat measures for many of the versres and choruses,- I maybe crazy but ain't no schmoo- but did indeed catch a semi-ghosted note at the 20 minute mark, but skip that it might be incorrect. During the drum solo, after the other drummer was going along to accompany the other one ... there is flim-flam that didn't flu....Just forget it... That dang course I took in transcribing...a freakin 36 weeks of Zappa multple measures of 17/8 ,5/4, and 9/8 reggae, Steve Vai in depth, musical nightmare..he did say no one had stayed with it as long as I had. Yeah freakin bullshit cuz thats cartoon music that Sylvester and Wil E. Coyote ...just nevermind. Beep Beep. Road trippin', Vicksburg to Jackson.

      The original song is under 10 minutes. So they added alot of notes. Now I know why some bands have 2 drummers. In case one of them cramps up during a 20+ minute song. They can keep the time going till they rub it out.😆 Great song and group.

Have seen Skynyrd, Outlaws, Marshall Tucker, Alman Brother's, on and on, etc. Some of us took advantage of so many concerts, so much music and so cheap. We lived on the golden era of the greatest music ever. Thank God I did. 40-50 years fast forward and I'm still doing it just paying through through the noise as they say.

    This song was to the Outlaws what Whipping Post was to the Allman Brothers Band, or what Freebird was to Lynyrd Skynyrd, or what Highway Song was to Blackfoot. Those last song of the night, show ending 15 to 20 minute plus powerful guitar opus songs that all of the great southern bands had in their arsenal. The song that would whip the crowd into an absolute frenzy right before being sent out the door for that amped ride back home. The common denominator with the afore mentioned songs was that no matter how great the studio versions sounded, you could really never truly appreciate just how great the songs were until you saw or heard those bands perform them live with those endless, forever solos added on as they were jammed onstage live for twice as long as they were played in the studio when those albums were recorded.

    Hughie "Buster" Thomasson was my moms cousin. He orignally live across the road from us in Buchanan, Va before they moved to FL. when he was a kid. He was here for a big family reunion a year or so before he passed. Green grass & high tides indeed.

    In 2007 we went out to the beach in Long Island NY to see Dickey Betts. Imagine the thrill when I found out the Outlaws were the opening act! As it happened I was with some young people who barely knew what "Southern Rock" was. I said, "Oh, wait for 'Green Grass'".
    It's nonsense what they say about short attention spans- you just have to engage mind, body and soul with all your heart...The acoustics were great and the crowd was on their feet screaming. Of course the joy of the song is that the electric guitars go on forever and ever in a series of tidal waves.
    Hughie did not disappoint. There was no hiding the fact of middle age in physical appearance. But that 55 year old man blew the roof off. I was stunned by the sheer energy and concentration on display.
    So although the news was very sad, it came as no surprise that he was dead of a heart attack a month later.
    He's not resting in peace. He's killing it on a stage somewhere.

      I guess my "systems administrator " has shut down my ability to comment. Well, fuck him too. I remember the first time I walked into my local biker bar with an Outlaws t-shirt on and someone asked who the fuck is that? Same thing happened when I walked in with a Tom Petty shirt on. Unfortunately some people are born idiots and they don't get any better. It's genetic.

    The Outlaws was a House Band at the Pillow Talk Lounge in Cocoa Beach's Satellite Motel in 1972. I cut that wild hair of Huey's, as I was in Beauty School that Fall & Winter & used fake IDs to get in to the bars. They knew me as Connie (Driver) then. I was living in Berkeley in 1976, & heard them come across KSFO Radio one day that July ... It was soooo thrilling!!!

    Who doesn't like 3 guitars playing all at once? Especially on a song that is so totally likeable. Well done gents!

    Hughie Thomasson will NEVER write a more poignant rock song to honor his musical heroes. What a gem...all these years later...
    Henry Paul, Tampa (and FLORIDA...) loves you...
