Guy Clark was something of a songwriter's songwriter, well respected by top names in the music business. He certainly wrote and recorded some great songs, and many other artists covered his songs too. He was also a luthier, making high end acoustic guitars. If you are not familiar with his music, I recommend you seek him out on UA-cam!
Thanks, Peter! I love Guy Clark, Townes Van Zandt, Lucinda Williams, Mickey Newbury, Rodney Crowell, Steve Earle and many more of those Americana type singer-songwriters. Not household names, perhaps, but people of great talent! I thank you for the comment!
I love many of those Americana type songwriters and performers. They are down to earth and genuine! I'm glad you like my rendition of this song, Gary, and I thank you for your generous comment! Greetings from England!
Another new artist to me robert. I checked out the original and love what you've done with this song.you play it a bit quicker which works a treat.so mellow as well.thanks for sharing
Thank you, Jeff! Guy Clark wrote and recorded some great songs! I love his talking blues type song, "The Guitar." It's a masterpiece! I'm glad you like my version of this one also!
"I loved you from the get go I'll love you till I die" may not be iambic pentameter, but it is as simple, direct, powerful and true as any line from Shakespeare and opens every human heart to the core if you let it in. Keep singing, Robert; you make me cry sometimes, but they are cleansing, necessary and beautiful tears. Just keep singing!
Songwriters can get away with things more easily than poets, I would say. A songwriter can squeeze words into a line, even if there are too many syllables, and Bob Dylan once famously said, " I can make anything rhyme if I want to!" Even so, it takes skill to write a really good song. I thank you for your gracious comment, my friend! Much appreciated! And yes, I'll keep on singing, for as long as I can!
@@marshallmkerr Dylan is a special talent. Some say he can't sing (compared to trained opera singers, none of us can!), but his delivery is often inspired!
What a smashing song this is, Robert. First time listen for me, my friend. Another treat, another time to say I'm very pleased I listened to a new song. Yes, I really enjoyed this one.
I love quite a lot of country and Americana music. Guy Clark was one of the best, in my eyes, even though many people have not even heard of him. I'm glad you like this, Robin, and I thank you for your kind comment!
Thank you, Harriet! I'm glad you like this! Guy Clark wrote and recorded some great songs. His talking blues type song, "The Guitar" is a special one, and probably my favourite of his!
Thanks for the comment Greg! Glad you like this! Yes, Guy Clark wrote some great songs. Check out his talking blues type song, "The Guitar." It's a mind blower!
@@gregorybradler9780 We shouldn't feel too bad about not being able to play the lead guitar parts on "The Guitar" song, Greg. Guy Clark couldn't play them either! His friend Verlon Thompson played those lead guitar parts. Great song, either way!
I'm glad you like my rendition of this song, my friend! Guy Clark wrote some great songs. Ones worth seeking out (besides this one) are: "Desperadoes Waiting For the Train," "L A Freeway," "The Last Gunfighter Ballad," and "The Guitar." The first time I heard him sing "The Guitar" it made the hairs on the back of my neck stand up! That one in particular is worth a listen!
A very fine cover! Thank you for introducing me to this great singer-songwriter and guitarist. I too loved on the Spanish Steps but I didn't meet Guy Clark there. 😃
