Well, I'm haulin' through Virginia Got the devil on my tail If I ain't real careful Just might end up in jail If they ask you where I am I'll be runnin' down the wind.
Ain't lookin to get famous I'm just a drivin' man Look out for the Troopers It's catch-me-if-you-can If they ask you where I am I'm runnin' down the wind.
Cruisin' North The darkness is my friend Got the pedal to the metal And I'm runnin' down the wind.
Great song. Excellent write, mix, arrangement and choice of instruments. The performance was spot on. Enjoyed this a lot.
A side note: Were he still with us today, by a display of a horse drawn wagon with a moonshine still as cargo, my uncle, Bill Ford, would errily but authentically resemble your SoundCloud photo.
He was more into homemade wine from the various grape varieties here on the farm, but I'd bet there was probably a moonshine recipe in his repertoire.
Don't have cable, so haven't seen that show. Thanks for the listen.

Bob
Essentially, it's a show about moonshiners in VA, NC, SC, and La. Still plying their trade in the hills and back country. There was actually a few shows, and the first one was centered around the ones in VA...in a little town called Gretna, between Danville and Lynchburg Va. . They were typical rednecks and I think one of them got busted and went to prison for making shine. He had set up a storefront operation as a cover to sell shine out of the back room. There was actually 2 or 3 episodes of the show detailing his plans...and they showed the store from the front street. They weren't the brightest bunch of boys.
The show I see occasionally is a bit more refined and one of the moonshiners has actually gone legit and set up a legal operation. In the last episode, 2 of the shiner's took a batch to Nashville, stashed it in the woods in an old abandoned house and went to see the customer. They pulled into a gated community and went to a really nice house. The owner was Ed King of Lynyrd Skynyrd fame. They were selling the shine in bulk for $500 a gallon. In it's time slot, it's just about the only interesting show on the cable at that time. And yes, Ed agreed to buy the entire lot at that price per gallon. A cool, tax free, $30k deal.
You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.com Add nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both.
The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.
Thanks for the kind words. Distilling has always been problematic in this country. The first rebellion was The Whiskey Rebellion in Carlilse Pa. Washington actually led a force against it. Show of force was all it took.
Don't have cable, so haven't seen that show. Thanks for the listen.
