Come Monday it'll be alright
Come Monday I'll be holding
you tight
I spent three lonely days
In a brown L.A. haze
And I just want you back
by my side .

Bad memory ...

Headin' up to San Francisco
For the Labor Day weekend show,
I've got my hush-puppies on,
I guess I never was meant for
Glitter rock and roll.
And honey I didn't know
That I'd be missin' you so.

Come Monday It'll be all right,
Come Monday I'll be holding you tight.
I spent four lonely days in a brown L.A. haze
And I just want you back by my side.

Yes it's been quite a summer,
Rent-a-cars and west bound trains.
And now you're off on vacation,
Somethin' you tried to explain.
And darlin' I love you so that's
The reason I just let you go.

you remember it happening Jim ?

I was born the following year

Yeah, I was 12, almost 13. He had several top 40 hits, was on TV quite a bit, then boom. He was gone. s far as how I heard, I'm not sure. I remember it being all over the news, though. I was still listening to AM top 40 then. Didn't migrate to FM for a couple years.

Of course, anybody who writes a song called "You Don't Mess Around With Jim" would get my attention.

Yeah, I know how it ends...

Along with "A Pirate Looks at Fourty" this is my all time favorite Buffet song. Just listened to it on CD Sunday driving home from the coast.

I was a big Croce fan. Bad Bad Leroy Brown got as much or more airplay than Big Jim. Rapid Roy was one of my favorites too. When the news about the crash happened it made me think of Don McLean's song about Buddy Holly, American Pie. That is what it felt like,"the day the music died".

OK, another sunday morning basement jam. A straight-to-thefedoralounge exclusive! The Tight Hat Blues!!!! If you listen to this over your phone, you prolly will not be able to hear much of the backing track, so it might sound a little thin and without form, but...

Hell yes! Was doing my very best to channel my inner Billy Gibbons. That guy has tone to kill for! Anyway, was fun, except for the part where I was trying to pull myself out of the muck in the last couple bars of the opening solo. That was more painful than fun. Heh.... Anyway, thanks for replying!
