I believe Otis’s eyes done seen some things.

Like "Resurrection Blues"?

A friend told me once that when he died if he heard his friends saying, 'Man I didn't see that coming' then he didn't live his life to the fullest. But if he heard them saying, 'Man, I've been expecting this', then he didn't leave anything on the table & went out with the candle burning from both ends.

So long to Paul English, drummer and friend of Willie Nelson.

Two songs Willie wrote for his friend Paul [the Devil] English.

I remember he also had parts in a couple of Willie's movies; Honeysuckle Rose, & Red Headed Stranger. RIP Paul.

Me either, really. Charlie just popped in my head when I saw the post. Still have his first album on vinyl. Charlie’s from TX and Martin’s from NY. Sexton’s everywhere.

Your post prompted me to do some reading on Snider. Quite an interesting history. Had no idea of the Buffett connection.

He makes it thru here a few times a yr. I don't know anything about him & Buffett (Warren or Jimmy?). I'll have to look in to that.

PS: Just read it. That Jimmy is quite the businessman!
