New song by Southern Fried. using BIAB drums, piano, bass some guitars and organ. A song about the outlaw days in the mid 70's, when Waylon, Willie, and Jerry Jeff Walker were doing the outlaw thing in Luckenbach Texas. Enjoyed those songs then and still do.

Looking back on Lukenbach tonight
remembering how those boys would fuss and fight
Their success seemed to stir the devils brew
could have happened to anyone but you

Take me back to Lukenbach tonight, I want to hear that singer sang that country right
A steel guitar inside of a 5 piece band.
A fender telecaster in a hot guitar pickers hand.

instrumental

Well it was country music with an outlaw thang around
They kept it going & changed the nashville sound
The working man could hear the things they said.
Lets me recall when it wasnt all blue and red
Looking Back , Luckenbach was our spirit being fed

Chorus

[Link no longer valid]

enjoy!!!! CLiff

Nice homage/reminder of a time past...the track provides a great backdrop for the outstanding picking solo.

Clever lyric hook matching “looking back” with “Lukenbach”..good job there.

Real good energy, and lots of fun, too! Enjoyed this, Cliff...thanks for posting!

Clifton,

I really love this. It has such an old school professional style--back when they could play and write and sing.

I could listen to this all day.

In fact, I just might.

Cliff,

A good "country as it was" write. A very solid lyric.

The opening melody had a real Hag sound to it.

The BAND sounds Country. Nice job of getting the drums where they need to be.

One of your best, I think.

Mighty good, fellas. That's quite an accomplishment,
near the end, to have produced that guitar/vocal mix where both are turned up yet neither dominates the other.

An excellent flashback to the good ol' days in country music.

I really enjoyed this. Great mix and some super guitar chops.

Hey Cliff,

Cool! I made a ton of money playing this kind of music for many, many years. Over much of that time I played an original 1954 Fender Tele, too! Everything about this is spot on - really cool song and delivered equally good. A big tip of the Stetson to you!

Alan.

PS: I wonder how many folks outside of texas are familiar with Jerry Jeff Walker. And, of course, there's Kinky Friedman and Rusty Wier.

Luckenbach was one of the first country songs I ever really learned to play. It's one of the few songs I remember all the lyrics.

cool tune.

Cliff,

"our spirit being fed" kind of sums up how this sounds. You & the band are in a sweet groove here!

Very good homegrown music.

This is a cool track and the singing is spot on.
the only nit I'd have is the dueling guitars of the intro they seem at odds with each other on note choices.
"The working man could hear the things they said.
Lets me recall when it wasn't all blue and red."
Yep.


Cheers
