Like a Rolling Stone
With the Cool Country Band in Hervey Bay
Like a Rolling Stone was released by Bob Dylan in 1965. Widely regarded as one of the greatest modern songs, it pushed the boundary limits on lyrics, phrasing and length of song. It had a massive influence on song writers. I’ve sung it many times solo on an acoustic guitar. This is my first time with a band. The Hervey Bay, Cool Country Band gives it a lift.
Mule Skinner Blues
With the Cool Country Band in Hervey Bay
Mule Skinner Blues was written by Jimmie Rodgers and George Vaughan in 1930. It has been recorded by lots of artists. The Fendermen had a big hit in 1960. My older brothers Ron, Geoff and Doug loved it. Geoff asked for it at his funeral in 2016 … so I played the CD. It is about pride in your work. This is my first try in 2022. Thanks to the Cool Country band at Hervey Bay.
