Was listening to a new album by Joe Ely. This one cracked me up.
She Finally Spoke Spanish to Me
Wine and dreams
She blew the candle out
I came to her for something
I went away without
Adios, that word will always haunt my memory
But she finally spoke Spanish to me
Written by his amigo, Butch Hancock. Brother Bob, if you ever get a chance to see 'The Flatlanders'; Joe, Jimmy and Butch are supreme!
ReplyDeleteIs that Marty H? Nice to hear from you. I sure would like to catch the Flatlanders sometime. One large regret in my life is that I failed to catch Hank Thompson live even once.
ReplyDeleteYes, indeed Roberto, Marty H, alive and well in the Joshua Tree ranges of the Mojave...if you don't already have a copy of the 'Flatlanders' latest - Hills and Valleys....well you know the drill...also pick up Justin Townes Earle, he has a couple of red hot albums out that nobody knows about!!!Best...mh
ReplyDeleteI've always liked Steve Earle, but I haven't heard anything by his son, yet. Betcha didn't know that I went to high school with Townes Van Zandt and his brother, Bill.
ReplyDeleteI'll check all of it out. Thanks!
