    Record of my Dad and Aunt's band from back in the 70s. They played all across Iowa and several other states for over 30 years. I swiped the record from his house today and converted it, I supposed I should tag him. Grizzly's Paw

    Nice, so cool. Big difference between the days when you played 45s and YouTube.

    I was spoiled with all the good music when I was a kid-- must be why I can't stand modern country. Either that or it just sucks.

    That's because that music came from their hearts and wasn't crafted by some mass promoter who thought he could make a buck from it.

    Nothing like the pop-n-click of an old 45!

    I'm impressed. Those lyrics are so representative of the times back then.

    They are relevant again with the current recession going on again. I believe they were written during the last big recession.
