Sleepy John Estes is a favorite along with Sonny Terry and Brownie McGee ! Willie passed me the bottle of Jack as I was up front here in Reno back in '79..

Great idea for a video, those old blues guys drank like fishes! Jeff Beck and Rod Stewart did a song called I've Been Drinking Again, and let's not forget the Kinks Demon Alcohol.🍺🍻
The blues and country genres have tons of drinking songs. "Whiskey River" was kind of Willie's theme song and a staple in concert. Great Merle Haggard record and I love that Rough Guide comp. Skoal.
Fantastic video and a great concept. Somehow I knew that Dead Kennedys song was going to make your list! You're right, it should have been, "drink my diarrhea."
Awesome list, sir! Got some great recommendations out of it! I think another great Amy Winehouse that could be included is "Wake Up Alone". Much like "Rehab" it's not exactly a song about drinking but it contains multiple allusions to drinking which serve to paint a harrowing portrayal of her craving for it whilst missing her loved one.
It seemed that Amy Winehouse’s decline was very rapid. I’ve seen footage of her last tour and she doesn’t know the words. The background singers were doing the singing.
Great idea, so I picked a few: Thin Lizzy - Whiskey In The Jar Judas Priest - Victim Of Changes Dead Kennedys - Too Drunk to F*ck Little Feat - Willin' Sia - Drink to Get Drunk ZZ Top - Arrested for Driving While Blind George Harrison - Simply Shady Gil Scott Heron - The Bottle Radiohead - Jigsaw Falling into Place The Pogues - Fairytale of New York + Bonus Lloyd George - Beer Sung
@@vinylrichie007 It was more than an act. I met Dean's Golf instructor teacher from the Riviera Golf Club of 6 years at a party 4 years ago. He also had a golf instruction channel up here when he married a Canadian girl and moved up here. Anyhow I'm a golfer and we spent much of the evening in each others company talking golf. When he mentioned he was Deans teacher at the Riviera when he was one of the teachers there I said I gotta ask you, I've read Martins both an alcoholic or tea totaller and the drunk routine is all an act. Which is it I said. He laughed and said Dean always sat outside on the patio with a water glass full of gin so everybody would think he's drinking water. He said Dean Martin was a drunk... LOL
I'm still looking for a clean copy of that "Mama Tried" album. I love Merle Haggard!!!! Great idea for a vinyl thread. I really should jump on this one! (even though I don't drink very much) hahahahahaa!
This one felt right tonight. I worked with a guy who claimed Muddy Waters was a great uncle. Check out "Too Much Alcohol" by the Gary Floyd Band. This thread is gold. Alright, "Gotta Get Drunk" (Wllie) Cheers!
What a cool idea! I did a video not too long ago about albums with songs about drugs LoL! Yeah I couldn’t just settle for booze I went for the hard stuff Haha! Great choices Rich! ⚡️🖖👽⚡️

Yeah great stuff. My favourite has got to be Suzi Quattro's first band The Pleasure Seekers 'What A Way to Die' That might even had been a hit in America?. I was always amazed that John Paul Jones agreed to produce The BH's. It was like when John Cale agreed to produce The Happy Mondays debut on factory. it sold about 12 copies. How do these things happen? Money i guess!
@@vinylrichie007 Youve got to hear it! t. Its a bit of a 60's garage classic, sort of thing The Cramps used to cover & it was Suzi Quatro's first band when she was 17? Get on youtube!

Hi Richy, Great video and a great idea!! Love it!! Sorry but I have one question off topic: since you know a lot of people from the VC, can you tell me what happened to "The Reverent Rockin´Rollin"? Since I unscribed from Rachel´s channel I don´t know anyone who can answer my question!😔
@@jokerharry1 I don’t know what happened to the Reverend. He may have drank the cool aide. I no longer watch Rachel’s stream. Though I do check in when something comes up. The last time I went on was to plug Ryan Kidd’s new record. I was in less than 5 minutes. I also showed a Vox Pop record that has a naked Don Bolles on the cover. Rachel was quite annoyed. As a result she could not leave the stream public.

I Wanna Get Drunk, Bloody Mary Morning, and Whiskey River by Willie Nelson. Snorting Whiskey, Drinking Cocaine by I think Pat Travers Band? One For My Baby, One More For The Road by Sinatra. I refuse to include any song by George Thorogood. All I Want To Do Is Have Some Fun by Sheryl Crow. Brown Eyed Women by Grateful Dead.
Too many songs about drinking from so many different genres. The list can actually go into the thousands. I have a double lp compilation from the mid 90's I believe that I can't remember the name of or the label. All songs about drinking with soundbites from movies or television series about alcohol between the tracks. Gotta do some research and get back to you.

@@TommysVinylnaut There are thousands of songs about drinking.
@@vinylrichie007 True.

I’ve never listened to Muswell Hillbillies.
Who doesn’t love a good song about drank’n. Thanks Rich!
I’m sure there are some.
@@vinylrichie007 Their loss..
GG Allin - Liquor Slicked Highway off Portrait Of The Artist As A Public Animal is another good one.
That is a good GG example.
What we learned is that the very best drinking songs are country western! Nice way to show a bunch of your country albums also
I’ve been listening to Blues and Country all week.
The blues and country genres have tons of drinking songs. "Whiskey River" was kind of Willie's theme song and a staple in concert. Great Merle Haggard record and I love that Rough Guide comp. Skoal.
I have three Blues Rough Guide comps and they are all very good.
Frank Sinatra had a bottle of Jack Daniels placed next to him in his coffin. I guess when he drank, he preferred to be alone.
Frank could get nasty.
Ozzy Osborne Demon Alcohol let’s party!
Ozzy did plenty of partying.
Fantastic video and a great concept. Somehow I knew that Dead Kennedys song was going to make your list! You're right, it should have been, "drink my diarrhea."
I’m not sure if you can eat it that it is diarrhea.
Yes I thought so too lol
Us Brits do come up with some good idea's
Awesome list, sir! Got some great recommendations out of it!

Hell yeah, I love hearing you talk and show country and blues records (primarily in this video) 🤠
Blues and Country are neglected on my channel.
I have been listening to Blues and Country all week.
Love your videos my friend. You always do an awesome job.
I have to agree.
Thank you very much!
Thank you very much!
Sounds fun, I'm sure I could do this from the hard rock side of things :)
There are lots of drinking songs.
Great idea, so I picked a few:
Thin Lizzy - Whiskey In The Jar
Judas Priest - Victim Of Changes
Dead Kennedys - Too Drunk to F*ck
Little Feat - Willin'
Sia - Drink to Get Drunk
ZZ Top - Arrested for Driving While Blind
George Harrison - Simply Shady
Gil Scott Heron - The Bottle
Radiohead - Jigsaw Falling into Place
The Pogues - Fairytale of New York
+ Bonus
Lloyd George - Beer Sung
@@Wolfgangfm A few of those I have not heard.
I enjoyed this Richie hopefully others will their Ten as well
I kind of doubt it will.
Two pints of Lager and a packet of crisps please... ad infinitum by Splodgenessabounds, superb.
That was mentioned on the livestream.
That was a good one Richie! Think I'll head out and grab a 12 pack!
Make a video.
Yeah Blues, Country and Booze seem to be common denominators don't they. Should have been a Dean Martin tune in there too. LOL
Drinking was definitely part of Dean Martin’s act.
@@vinylrichie007 It was more than an act. I met Dean's Golf instructor teacher from the Riviera Golf Club of 6 years at a party 4 years ago.

I dreamed I was in a Hollywood movie 🎥 & that I was the star 🌟 of the movie. 🍷
I think that is a common dream.

I think so.
What, no 99 bottles of Beer on the wall? And to think, you worked in a brewery!
If you got the time.
Hey, this is a great idea. I have already thought of more than ten.
@@EmbryonicRobot I don’t know if you noticed but I showed more than 10.
Yeah great stuff. My favourite has got to be Suzi Quattro's first band The Pleasure Seekers 'What A Way to Die' That might even had been a hit in America?.

I don’t think I’ve heard What A Way To Die. If the song is about drinking it sounds like a horrible way to die.
@@vinylrichie007 Youve got to hear it! t. Its a bit of a 60's garage classic, sort of thing The Cramps used to cover & it was Suzi Quatro's first band when she was 17? Get on youtube!

Rock on!
Rock on!

Some are.

Maybe I can do ten Mudhoney songs.

Yes I did have a good idea
Classic Country is always good for drinking songs
Willie , Merle, Kris K over to Sinatra late night musings down to Thorogood and Pat Travers
I’ve never seen anyone else in the VC show a Buck Owens and a GG Allin record in the same video.
And Howlin’ Wolf on top of that.
Not a popular threesome.

Somebody Put Something in My Drink
Why didn’t I think of that.
