20:34
SPEAKER_04: But Taxman is one of my favorite Beatles songs.
20:37
SPEAKER_04: Me too.
20:38
SPEAKER_04: Because it's kind of like it's a middle finger to the British government.
20:42
SPEAKER_09: It absolutely is.
20:43
SPEAKER_04: It's a George Harrison thing.
20:44
SPEAKER_04: And George Harrison wrote it.
20:45
SPEAKER_09: Right, yeah.
20:46
SPEAKER_04: And he's and it and it's got his sense of humor because he's got that dry sense of humor.
20:52
SPEAKER_04: And he puts that in the song, and if you if you really listen to the lyrics, you'll get it.
20:56
SPEAKER_04: Right.
20:56
SPEAKER_04: And I love I just love that song.
20:58
SPEAKER_04: And I love Stevie Ray Vaughn's version of it too.

21:06
SPEAKER_09: No way.
21:07
SPEAKER_09: I'm confused.
21:09
SPEAKER_09: I saw this title and I was like, ooh, is this a new album?
21:13
SPEAKER_09: Because all it says is Simple Minds, Direction of the Heart.
21:19
SPEAKER_09: It doesn't say Yeah, it doesn't say it's a reissue.
21:22
SPEAKER_09: But when I just went to YouTube and there's no sound file.
21:24
SPEAKER_09: When I just went to YouTube, it says Simple Minds, Direction of the Heart, full album 2022, as if it's already out.
21:32
SPEAKER_09: But then Simple Minds Direction of the Heart uh taken from the B side of magic, which was four years ago.
21:41
SPEAKER_09: So I'm a little confused.
21:42
SPEAKER_09: I just wanna I'm gonna click on this and we'll see what happens here.
21:49
SPEAKER_09: This this is from four years ago?
21:52

22:09
SPEAKER_04: Are they sure they didn't go back to the eighties?
22:14
SPEAKER_04: Oh yeah.
22:21

23:07
SPEAKER_04: I mean, that is right.
23:08
SPEAKER_04: Out of 1985, 85, 86.
23:12
SPEAKER_09: Yeah.
23:13
SPEAKER_09: I mean, obviously, I think we've drive themselves.
23:17
SPEAKER_09: Obviously, this is what we know them for, right?
23:25
SPEAKER_09: Just in case you didn't know who Simple Minds was.
23:30
SPEAKER_09: You know, they probably never have to work again after this song.
23:33
SPEAKER_04: Oh my goodness, right?
23:34
SPEAKER_04: If you I mean, as as as timeless as the Breakfast Club movie was.
23:39

SPEAKER_04: I mean, it's not I mean it's it's a movie.
28:52
SPEAKER_04: Yeah, it's a movie, yeah.
28:53
SPEAKER_04: But I mean that's that was basically him.
28:56
SPEAKER_04: Yep.
28:57
SPEAKER_04: You know, he was just he of all of all anybody in Queen, he was probably the most down-to-earth, level-headed one.
29:05
SPEAKER_09: Did not want to be a rock star.
29:06
SPEAKER_04: Yeah, he was just he just wanted to play.
29:08
SPEAKER_09: Yeah.
29:08
SPEAKER_04: And of course Brian May.
29:09
SPEAKER_04: I mean, that guy's just a freaking genius.
29:12
SPEAKER_09: Yep, absolutely.
29:12
SPEAKER_09: In more ways than one.
29:13
SPEAKER_09: Yes.
29:14
SPEAKER_09: Uh I mentioned John Fogarty.
29:16
SPEAKER_09: So C C R.
29:17
SPEAKER_09: Now John Fogarty um quit CCR in 72, something something like that.
29:23
SPEAKER_09: Um he was, of course, embroiled in all kinds of disagreements and lawsuits.
29:27
SPEAKER_09: Uh the aftershock stretched out for more than twenty years because he he refused to play his old songs.
29:34
SPEAKER_09: Uh because of his feud with the record company and the owner, uh, he was hesitant to record because legally or technically he was in a spot where if he made any new music, he had to give the same guy that screwed him the money.
29:48
SPEAKER_09: Right.
29:48
SPEAKER_09: Right?
29:48
SPEAKER_09: So he didn't for like twenty years, he didn't do anything.
29:52
SPEAKER_09: Um and then of course he started a solo career and he's been he hasn't looked back since.
29:56
SPEAKER_09: Yeah.
29:57
SPEAKER_09: But uh and even his bandmates, you know, tried to sue him.
30:01
SPEAKER_09: Uh Bill Withers.
30:04
SPEAKER_09: Uh Lean On Me.
30:05
SPEAKER_09: Yep.
30:06
SPEAKER_09: He uh he never gave in to label pressure.
30:09
SPEAKER_09: His relationship with Columbia was a result as a result of his previous company, Sussex, going bankrupt.
30:14
SPEAKER_09: Things quickly went sour, and Withers uh chafed at being stuck with a corporate system that didn't understand him.
30:20
SPEAKER_09: Uh he once opened for Jethro Tull.
30:23
SPEAKER_09: This is how the the record company set it up.
30:25
SPEAKER_09: He opened for Jethro Tull.
30:27
SPEAKER_09: That is the one of the most lopsided with he told uh Columbia to shove it in 1985 and walked away from music entirely.
30:36
SPEAKER_09: Hasn't of course he's dead now, but yeah, it was hard to record music now.
30:39
SPEAKER_09: Right, exactly.
30:40
SPEAKER_09: David Byrne, Talking Heads.
30:42
SPEAKER_09: Yeah.
30:42
SPEAKER_09: Uh I think he's put out some solo albums, but he the you know, the Talking Heads are at the top of their game.
30:47
SPEAKER_09: Yeah.
30:47
SPEAKER_09: Izzy Stradlin, Guns and Roses.
30:49
SPEAKER_09: Oh yeah.
30:50
SPEAKER_09: Right?
30:50
SPEAKER_09: He could have gone back to to Guns when they reunited, chose not to.
30:54
SPEAKER_09: Yeah.
30:54
SPEAKER_09: No, I don't want to.
30:55
SPEAKER_09: No, I don't either.
30:56
SPEAKER_09: Now this one, Mark Knoffler.
30:59
SPEAKER_09: Dire Straits.
31:00
SPEAKER_09: So Mark!
31:05
SPEAKER_04: Now it's and now it's that's why.
31:08
SPEAKER_04: Right.
31:08
SPEAKER_04: It's that Mark.
31:10
SPEAKER_09: So he disbanded Dire Straits in ninety-five, and he said he uh pursued a solo career as an act of self-protection.
31:19
SPEAKER_09: He said that he put the whole rock star thing to bed because he wanted to get back to some kind of reality.
31:25
SPEAKER_09: Uh that kind of scale, because dire straits was huge in the 80s.
31:30
SPEAKER_09: Yeah.
31:30
SPEAKER_09: He said that kind of scale is dehumanizing.
31:33
SPEAKER_09: So he said, No more dire straits.
31:36
SPEAKER_09: He went and he started doing his like they're not folk albums, but I mean his albums are more, you know.
31:43
SPEAKER_04: Well, didn't he do the music for The Princess Bride?
31:45
SPEAKER_09: He did.
31:46
SPEAKER_09: Yeah, and he's done several music soundtracks, movie soundtracks.
31:48
SPEAKER_09: Um, but and they tried to the some of the band members tried to get him to reunite, and he refused.
31:54
SPEAKER_09: And even his brother, um David, they they didn't neither one of them showed up to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction.
32:02
SPEAKER_09: Um and Dire Shirt obviously didn't perform, so uh Roger Hodgson Supertramp.
32:09
SPEAKER_09: Goodbye, stranger.
32:11
SPEAKER_09: Yeah.
32:11
SPEAKER_09: Right?
32:12
SPEAKER_09: And the logical song.
32:13
SPEAKER_09: Uh he in 83 he abruptly decided to leave.
32:17
SPEAKER_09: He said he's all I've always tried to follow my heart and my instincts in life.
32:21
SPEAKER_09: When he left Supertramp, he was wanting to step away from the music business just to have a simpler life.
32:26
SPEAKER_09: In eighty-three, he chose to move away from LA and uh it was at the peak of Super Tramp success, and he stayed home and raised his kids.
32:35
SPEAKER_04: I gotta believe that part of it was the name of the band.
32:39
SPEAKER_04: Supertramp.
32:40
SPEAKER_04: It's a terrible name.
32:42
SPEAKER_09: It is it is a terrible name.
32:44
SPEAKER_04: I I you know he's probably just like I hate being in this band.
32:48
SPEAKER_04: I'm out of here.
32:49
SPEAKER_09: But you know, I think that's commendable that he he Oh yeah he left and went and raised his kids.
32:55
SPEAKER_04: That's kind of like uh Garth Brooks.
32:57
SPEAKER_04: No, uh Rick Moranis.
32:58
SPEAKER_04: Rick Moranis.
32:59
SPEAKER_04: His wife got sick and he just quit acting.
33:01
SPEAKER_04: Yep.
33:02
SPEAKER_04: Take care of his kids.
33:03
SPEAKER_04: Yep.
33:03
SPEAKER_09: I was like, man, that's Well, Garth Brooks did the same thing.
33:05
SPEAKER_09: I mean, uh he didn't have to work, right?
33:08
SPEAKER_09: He retired supposedly in the nineties.
33:10
SPEAKER_09: Yeah.
33:11
SPEAKER_09: Yeah, late nineties.
33:12
SPEAKER_04: Was it before or after the Chris Gaines debacle?
33:14
SPEAKER_09: I was after.
33:15
SPEAKER_09: Okay.
33:16
SPEAKER_09: Yeah.
33:16
SPEAKER_09: Um, but he uh retired.
33:19
SPEAKER_04: Oh, nobody will notice me.
33:21
SPEAKER_04: I'll just get an emo haircut.
33:23
SPEAKER_09: He'll never live that down.
33:24
SPEAKER_09: He will never live that you know the crazy thing is.
33:28
SPEAKER_04: The crazy thing is some of the music wasn't bad.
33:31
SPEAKER_04: It wasn't great, but it wasn't bad.
33:33
SPEAKER_04: You're right, yeah.
33:34
SPEAKER_04: Hold on.
33:35
SPEAKER_04: Do you actually have the Chris Gaines out?
33:37
SPEAKER_09: No, I don't.
33:38
SPEAKER_09: I was about to say.
33:39
SPEAKER_09: No, I don't.
33:41
SPEAKER_09: I was gonna I want to play a little bit of it though.
33:44
SPEAKER_09: Oh, here we go.
33:46
SPEAKER_09: Uh the video was kind of funny because it was just you know what the the whole story behind that was, right?
33:59
SPEAKER_04: Uh not really.
34:01
SPEAKER_04: I just assumed he lost his mind.
34:03
SPEAKER_09: There was a movie project and they recorded the movie soundtrack before the movie was written.
34:13
SPEAKER_09: So this was a character.
34:16
SPEAKER_09: And you know, Garth Brooks is a marketing genius.
34:19
SPEAKER_09: He, you know, he's got a degree in marketing, and this was just something that backfired because what they did was they released the soundtrack to the movie before the movie was written, and all people saw was this this this thing.
34:38
SPEAKER_09: You know, the music was alright.
34:39
SPEAKER_09: It was very baby faced.
34:40
SPEAKER_04: Yeah, I was about to say it was like that late 90s RB feel to it.
34:46
SPEAKER_04: Right.
34:46
SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
34:47
SPEAKER_09: And then this the script, you know, writing process, it all fell through because he was getting ri ridiculed for because they made videos, like music videos for the songs.
34:57
SPEAKER_09: Yeah.
34:58
SPEAKER_09: And he was dressed up as this character, and it was eventually going to be a movie about this character.
35:03
SPEAKER_09: That's but then the movie went nowhere.
35:06
SPEAKER_09: So you just had this failed project.
35:09
SPEAKER_04: Well, I mean, they should have you know treated it like that E.T.
35:12
SPEAKER_04: Atari game, you know, just buried it in the desert.
35:15
SPEAKER_04: You know what I mean?
35:16
SPEAKER_06: I forgot about the E.T.
35:17
SPEAKER_06: Atari game.
35:18
SPEAKER_06: That was a terrible game.
35:23
SPEAKER_04: Yeah, they they should have buried this out by Area 51 or something.
35:26
SPEAKER_04: You know what I mean?
35:27
SPEAKER_04: Just let the aliens have it.
35:29
SPEAKER_09: I'm sure people still rouse him for that.
35:30
SPEAKER_09: Oh, I'm sure.
35:31
SPEAKER_09: Uh Faith No More Guitarist Jim Martin left the band in '93 following the release of uh Angel Dust, which was uh an album that came out in '92.
35:42
SPEAKER_09: Um he says there was a lot of pressure.
35:47
SPEAKER_09: He said he didn't like the album that came out because we were trying to um trying to meet a um like a you know, what do you call it?
35:58
SPEAKER_09: It was it was like a contractual thing.
36:01
SPEAKER_09: Yeah, it was not a contractual thing, but it was contrived because you know, they had the the epic, you know, the big the big song.
36:08
SPEAKER_09: Yeah, and that album was r really huge.
36:10
SPEAKER_09: And then they went in and to do a follow-up to it, and the record company was like, oh, we need to make it more like this.
36:16
SPEAKER_09: And so he said it was just too much like we weren't having fun making the music we want to make.
36:21
SPEAKER_09: We were trying to make a successful record.
36:24
SPEAKER_04: Of course, I can't imagine working with Mike Pat and I'm not sure.
36:27
SPEAKER_09: I can't either.
36:27
SPEAKER_09: Yeah, I can't either.
36:28
SPEAKER_04: That guy just seems like a D bag.
36:31
SPEAKER_09: Yeah, he uh well, I mean he's just he's just weird.
36:34
SPEAKER_09: Yeah.
36:34
SPEAKER_09: You know, he's just weird.
36:36
SPEAKER_09: Um so yeah, that's all I have for for those.
36:41
SPEAKER_09: Um but I thought that was kind of neat.
36:43

37:10
SPEAKER_04: Million dollars.
37:12
SPEAKER_04: Even if you timed it by a million, it wouldn't do anything.
37:14
SPEAKER_09: I'm actually looking for um I'm actually as we're talking here, I'm actually looking for any info on that new um Beatles release.
37:24
SPEAKER_09: Oh the revolver one?

37:50
SPEAKER_09: There's an I knew there'd be an article.
37:51
SPEAKER_09: Of course there would be an article.
37:52
SPEAKER_09: God bless ultimate classicrock.com.
37:54
SPEAKER_09: What to expect from the upcoming Beatles Revolver box set.
37:58
SPEAKER_09: Okay.
37:59
SPEAKER_09: Um the album was heard of the breaking ground, blah blah blah, how many box sets includes 28 early takes from the LP sessions, plus three home demos.
38:09
SPEAKER_09: Okay.
38:10
SPEAKER_09: That'd be cool.
38:10
SPEAKER_04: That's cool.
38:11
SPEAKER_09: There's also a new remix of the album sourced from the original four-track master tapes created by Giles Martin.
38:16
SPEAKER_04: That'd be Sir Martin Son.
38:18
SPEAKER_09: Sir George, George Martin's son, yep.
38:20
SPEAKER_09: Yep.
38:20
SPEAKER_09: Uh with the assistance of the sound team at Peter Jackson's Wing Nut Films Productions.
38:25
SPEAKER_09: The revolver tracks were broken down using some of the most up-to-date technology available.
38:30
SPEAKER_09: Uh let's see.
38:33
SPEAKER_09: Giles Martin said, I kind of hate the idea of anyone listening to music thinking about technology.
38:38
SPEAKER_09: Um, because that's not the point.
38:40
SPEAKER_09: We should listen to songs and enjoy them.
38:42
SPEAKER_09: But uh he and Kate occasionally will indulge.
38:45
SPEAKER_09: Let's see, blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah.
38:51
SPEAKER_09: Yeah, so uh I I would imagine that there's let's see, after spending so much time working on your back, we didn't Disney uh it was a band that was more cohesive than people thought at that stage.
39:02
SPEAKER_09: Uh us becoming individuals, there were songs any of your bird can sing.
39:06
SPEAKER_09: Um there's also a revealing version of Eleanor Rigby uh parentheses take two.
39:12
SPEAKER_09: Before the take, the string octet heard in the song had played its part only once before.
39:18
SPEAKER_09: So it was like a second take.
39:19
SPEAKER_09: Sure.
39:20
SPEAKER_09: A brief discussion about the vibrato can be heard on the tape before George Martin conducts the group, which plays with gusto throughout the section.
39:27
SPEAKER_09: It's a powerful moment within the context of the recording sessions.
39:30
SPEAKER_09: Ten minutes before you heard that that day, no one would have heard Eleanor Rigby at all.
39:34
SPEAKER_09: It was just a piece of paper with dots.
39:37
SPEAKER_09: That's kind of a neat way to look at it.
39:39
SPEAKER_04: Interesting.
39:40
SPEAKER_09: Um Marine was mainly McCartney composition in the demo.
39:45
SPEAKER_09: So there's a demo uh where John Lennon sings a sad verse in the town where I was born.
39:49
SPEAKER_09: No one cared, no one cared.
39:51
SPEAKER_04: Wow.

SPEAKER_04: That's but that's a John Lennon thing.
39:54
SPEAKER_09: That's a John Lennon thing.
39:55
SPEAKER_09: Um the producer host.
39:58
SPEAKER_09: So it didn't really go into detail uh about what to expect, but I guess it's a lot of a lot of outtakes.

SPEAKER_09: This is Les Paul Now.
43:41
SPEAKER_09: So it's an it's a it's a two set two album, or no, it's a one album set.
43:45
SPEAKER_09: But he he says, look inside, dude.
43:48
SPEAKER_09: So go check that out.
43:54
SPEAKER_09: Oh wow.
43:55
SPEAKER_09: Just some cool pictures.
43:56
SPEAKER_09: Yeah, that's cool.
43:57
SPEAKER_09: And uh just very cool that he uh he thought of us and it's like some jazz tunes and whatnot but the inside the the uh album art is pictures black and white pictures of les Paul studio yeah and you know because les Paul not only did he invent the Les Paul um electric guitar but he also invented multi-track recording uh which many people don't know uh what's interesting to me is it's a Les Paul album but there's a Gibson SG on the cover.
44:30
SPEAKER_04: Yeah I was gonna say it's not it says Les Paul custom on this.
44:34
SPEAKER_09: Yeah what the the guitar does?
44:36
SPEAKER_09: Yeah right there oh well but it's an SG shape.
44:40
SPEAKER_09: Yeah you know it's it's not uh it's not uh a Les Paul guitar which is interesting to me there's a Duke Ellington song I know right that's pretty cool yeah so I just you know I brought it down here and I've had it over there but I've been meaning to to show it to you and now I have I like it all right well that's cool we'll listen to it at some point.
45:00
SPEAKER_09: Yes all right it's time to do this it's time for the guitar legend and drum legends alphabet by Beck Feiner and since we have uh only two episodes left this episode and the next episode uh is our season finale uh and then we're going to start numbering the episodes um we're gonna do two today yeah we're gonna finish these up and then we're gonna finish these up for the season um start start anew let's see yeah okay so the letters of the day today are W and X.
45:43
SPEAKER_09: All right So reading from the Guitar Legends alphabet W is any guesses I don't know W is for Nancy Wilson blending jazz and pop as lead guitarist for Heart Fancy Miss Nancy I don't ever remember her being called that but Fancy Mince Nancy broke the mold in the 70s by grabbing the spotlight and topping the charts within a male dominated genre.
46:37
SPEAKER_09: Her acoustic chops are some of the best ever and her electric work on tracks such as Barracuda are the very definition of legendary.
46:44
SPEAKER_04: I always like Nancy Wilson she's a babe too absolutely Watts Charlie Watts although he's been in the backbone of the most enduring rock roll band for nearly sixty years his personal taste actually lie in jazz he brings not only sartorial sartorial style but an effortless why do you put big words in a book about drummers being read by a drummer I mean that's just that you're just setting me up for failure.
47:24
SPEAKER_04: Oh goodness he brings not only a sentorial style but an effortless cool and swinging swagger to the Rolling Stones Ionic Iconic Bionic Bionic Iconic brand I can't go it's a cool picture of though I like pictures pictures are easier to read this should be a pop-up book when you turn the page the bionic sound comes up a little you know a little thing of like Charlie Watts on a drum kitchen right woo dog um uh swaggered to the Rolling Stones iconic brand of rhythm and blues a true living legend who is no longer living unfortunately trying to time it's right um okay so would you pair Nancy Wilson and Charlie Watts oh heck yeah yeah me too that'd be a great pairing actually I agree okay uh so the next letter is X so they're reaching a little bit on this I think but any guesses as to who the guitar player for X is no X is for Alex Lifeson Okay that's stretching a little bit he definitely deserves Oh I agree.
49:18
SPEAKER_09: As guitarist for let's see how let's see how this reads this obvious as guitarist for imaginative Canadian prog rock band Rush Imaginative Lifeson mastered not only his electric and acoustic but also played mandolin bazook and sometimes two instruments at once his ability to switch from slow and emotional to fast and ferocious continues to astound fans and critics alike.
49:43
SPEAKER_04: When did Alex Lifeson ever play two instruments at the same time?
49:46
SPEAKER_09: I'm sure he did but the the one that I think of that played two instruments at the same time was Getty Lee.
49:51
SPEAKER_04: Getty would be singing playing the bass and synthesizers with his feet exactly all at the same time.
49:57
SPEAKER_09: Exactly so I wonder if this Beck Finder has them confused.
50:02
SPEAKER_04: Could be I would imagine Alex probably played more than one instrument at a time if you see his setup when they play live right he does have triggers right for different parts of songs.
50:12
SPEAKER_04: Well they all had triggers I mean Neil Peart are you kidding me he had triggers for everything yeah yeah everything so anyway all right drummer drummer X is for Max Roach as one of the pioneers of Bebop jazz Roach is considered one of the most important drummers in history a Hall of Famer this old dog kept learning new tricks what the It's just really weird though the writing innovating with improvised jazz and collaborating with dancers and hip hoppers well into his 70s.
50:42
SPEAKER_09: So cool is that what it says so cool so cool.
50:45
SPEAKER_09: But that's a qu that is a cool picture I'm it is a cool picture.
50:48
SPEAKER_09: So would you put Alex Lifeson and Max Roche?
50:51
SPEAKER_09: Yeah you could do he could do that I think Alex Lifeson could pretty much play anything yeah yeah he can play with anybody and play anything yeah um all right so there you go that is the um what do you call it the um alphabet legends guitar legends and drum legends alphabet yes okay so um on that note we're gonna we're gonna take a break where's Lee Majors uh there's a guy I could talk about Lee Majors Lee Majors I used to love Lee Majors I I I like that show with the six million dollar man six million dollar man I like that one I liked a fall guy oh the fall guy was pretty good with Heather Thomas I watched the Fall Guy but my mom used to watch uh Big Valley the old west oh yeah yeah which had Lee Majors in it yeah I forgot about that what else was he in a lot of stuff but I don't know why we're talking about Lee Majors because you did the bionic thing is that why?

57:29
SPEAKER_09: Really um that's an interesting comment it is right um of course let's let's let's play a little bit of Bill Withers I think it's just comfort yeah you know yeah it's just a smooth it's not a warm when she's away when she's gone and she's always gone to so soulful yeah anytime she goes away wonder this time where she's gone when the strings come in yes this is one of my favorite songs of all time anyway if she's gonna stay and I think if I remember right our bass player Shane Mountain knows this you know whatever else is in that guy's head I don't know all the trivia that he has but I think he counted these I'm just gonna say 26 26 Let's see Shane knows that off the top of his head yeah unless I missed one or two of there but I don't think I did yeah uh and then of course this I know Hootie and the blowfish covered this song.

1:01:27
SPEAKER_02: is with him at saxophone I believe it does have that late 70s early 80s vibe to it you know and you know Will Smith used this as uh as a sample for something yeah for something yeah and the beauty of it all is when the sun comes shining through to make those rainbows in my mind when I think of you sometime and I want to spend some time with you.
1:02:00
SPEAKER_09: Just the two of us we can make it if we try just the two of us the two mother so you have that and then you know he went away you had his you you had his catalog that you listened to through the through the 80s and the 90s and everything and then blame it on gap uh do you remember the gap ad that was this song oh yeah lovely day yeah we've actually played through this once with the syndicate do you remember that no yes we we did did we yeah I'm not sure if you were there wake up and yeah I think I think you were there I don't remember doing this we only did it once in one in a rehearsal one time but we've talked about doing it so without one in the It would be fun to do and so this song put him back on the map then I look at you right and akin to going viral right you know with the with the gap head and you found out that uh Bill Withers was you know uh yeah so and and and not to change gears but I want to explain what I said about um Don Williams um because there's just something about maybe it's because of my childhood but when I hear Don Williams's voice it's a comfort to me.
