    Boy oh boy what a voice. Back when singers had true talent and not remastered studio work. This man live is just unbelievable. One of my top 5 voices of all times.

      Man did you ever get that right. It's 7 in the morning and I heard this song and is it raining at your house last night in my dreams. It seems like all night. Woke up first thing search it up on RUclips and here I am. That led me to you even before my maccoffee. Good morning

    A legend. His phrasing and range at 2:00 is evidence of this man's vocal prowess. Vern and George Jones may be the only two country singers in history with such expressive vocal talents.

    Vern's voice was like fresh peanut butter - smooth. He gets on the stage and looks so effortless. Many singers look like they're straining and having difficulty singing a song. Vern singing to an audience was no different than talking to a friend a foot away from him.

      @@ronaldlevao8251 The lyrics are kind of cryptic if you'r not versed in it. Most people may know "Victrola" as an old record player. They don't know it was a jukebox. And Google E.T. and you'll get a space alien, not the Texas Troubador.

    The Voice! And a most fitting moniker. Vern Gosdin was of course a highly successful hard country singer but his contribution to the developments of Country Rock should not be forgotten. Together with younger brother Rex, The Gosdin Brothers spend the mid/ late 1960s as a country rock act and released the superb Sounds Of Goodbye album on Capitol Records in 1968.
