Hey there Zach. Always the best seeing you popping on and doing another update. I saw Poco in the late seventies at the Paradise Rock Club and I believe that Jerry Jeff was the backup. I have not heard Sturgill Simpson or Miles Miller's music yet. Are they mainly country music? Be back in a little bit to watch the other half Z~ Rob/Boston
I especially enjoyed hearing about Jerry Jeff Walker. Boy did he have a great voice and he was a character. I see an Exotica album on your shelf which I love. I subbed you up.
Hey! Nice bunch of records. I'm a Jerry Jeff fan, but I'm probably drawn to his country albums more than the folky ones. But they're all good. I picked up his Bein' Free album recently. That's a great one. I reckon he doesn't get the love Townes Van Zandt does, simply because he's more upbeat and fun. I'm working my way back through his albums, so I'll pick up his early ones whenever I see them. I spent a long time avoiding 80s country, but I've begun to explore some of the artists who were actually good. George Strait is one of them, I love his Western swing influences. I pick up his albums whenever I come across them. Although The International Submarine Band's Safe At Home was released on Lee Hazelwood's LHI label, I believe the album was produced by Suzi Jane Hokom. I remember reading about the recording sessions, and either Jon Corneal or John Nues (I can't remember which?) complained that Hokom insisted on recording the band members separately, which led to a huge argument. They weren't too impressed with her production skills, but I wouldn't be at all surprised that was because she was a woman. Suzi Jane Hokom used to go out with Doug Dillard. There's a great story about her hearing Doug was getting it on with another girl down at the Troubadour. She freaked out, got in her car, drove down to the club and ploughed her car through the window of the Troubadour...But it wasn't the Troubadour, it was the window of the tattoo parlour next door. Doug made a sharp exit through the back door of the club to avoid her fury. Cheers - Hedley

Hey Rob! Miles Miller and Sturgil Simpson might be considered Americana. Jerry Jeff and Poco? Nice!

Quality stack. Jerry, Jeff is the absolute business. Good to see you, brother
Thanks Mikey!!
Good stuff - I don’t have that orphan Dylan album, might pick it up, I see it frequently. 👍🏻
If you’re a fan of the Self Portrait, New Morning era of Dylan then you may want to snag that one. Thanks Tim.

Thanks for watching Hedley. Suzi Jane Hokum did produce the ISB. I never pay enough attention to the details..interesting Dillard Hokum connection!
You should consider doing a video showcasing some 80’s country. 🤠
@@listen_to_records444 I've been thinking of doing that for a while, so it might well be on the cards.
