Ah, see, there's your problem, you believe in fairy tales about an afterlife, and eternal damnation, and shit like that. Hence the insistence on having respect for "the dead" which really means, either having respect for a rotting bit of organic material, quietly minding its own business and decomposing; or it means having respect for the memories of people who, if you apply your fairy-tales to their lives strictly, are all going to Hell anyway. So why should I have respect for dead people, who by your rules (if you're a believer that is) are going to burn in hell? And if you're not a believer, then why have "respect for the dead" at all?

And by-the-by, you are a prude. You just haven't caught up to the fact that you've become your parents. It's okay, it happens to all of us.

You're in Burleson?  Got family there, but I got ran out of the state 'cause I am one of them long-haired hippie liberal types.  Still, the ole Lone Star state did give us the great Stevie Ray, Tommy Lee Jones, the wonderful Molly Ivins, just to name a few.

This is easy too play, too! Need the twelve string, though.

Wow, I can't imagine a bigger change in venue. That's like an Earthling moving to Mars.

Lived in Paradise, MI for a few years as a kid. Great place to live as a kid, not an adult (unless you like welfare and excessive drinking). My parents owned the Little Falls Inn and Red Flannel Saloon, being less than 10 miles from Whitefish Point I can't tell you how many times I heard "Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald" on the bar jukebox. Always gives me a smile when Bill plays it here.

Just heard this yesterday morning on my drive in. It's ALWAYS a pleasure to hear SRV!

I love this song, allways liked to hear SRV just tear notes out of his guitar but had heard him do some accoustic stuff and he really was good on one so add that to his personal struggles and this is great song

Thanks for your humble opinion, I'll file it in the appropriate receptacle. *flush*  There it goes.

Was this comment really necessary? I mean, really?

I think not. I ain't no "shrinking violet", but a lack of respect for the dead is a sign of a poor upbringing. You should be ashamed of yourself, and you should keep such ghoulish sh*t to yourself.

Just my humble opinion.

No wasted time....We're alive today
Churnin' up the past....There's no easier way
Time's been between us....A means to an end
God it's good to be here walkin' together my friend

aahhh  stevie    

funny, it starts just like 'revolution' so i understand why it comes after ' a day in a life' ;-)

DIG.

Not a big fan of the blues but I do like this.

IMO, great vocals by Stevie on this superb track.

a most poignant pinnacle of his remarkable career... cut too short by fate rather than by the bottle.

cheers!

I saw him in concert 3 months before he died-

Still greatly missed.
