  • Keith Whitley has been gone 35 years today. He changed everything in the few short years he was here…and I know we all miss him terribly. Keith was one of the greatest to ever do it.

    Perfect. Not many can even hold a candle to Keith Whitley but Brother, you've done it. Absolutely great.

    Every time I cover that one, I secretly cringe, hearing how short I fall from doing anywhere near as good as Keith did it. His voice was something he worked on for years, and he crafted it beautifully. You did that one real good Trey, picking and singing, both.

      Best one ive seen thus far. Youve got it. Just need to drink some straight Kentucky bourbon right before hand, and it'll give you the smoother baritone sound by helping to relax the vocal chords. You still nailed it. But I guarantee straight Jim beam will help. With vocal exercises. Yawning with your mouth closed. Or even straw singing. You totally nailed it anyway. But those things will help improve your range alot.

    You should be a country star and easily could be if Nashville wouldn’t only looking for people who has no talent and can’t sing! It’s a shame really how good you are and people don’t appreciate real God given talent like you have but buddy I see it and I appreciate it. Btw that Yairi sure sounds good

    Awesome job. I wish I could like it twice! Funny thing, I've been working on getting down a few of your covers (you do a killer job on them), and when I started working on this song I thought to myself "I'm going to give this one the Trey Hensley treatment." You beat me to it though lol.

    My father played with JD Crowe, Tony Rice, Keith Whitley and many others.
    One of my greatest accomplishments as a novice, nobody musician was opening for Merle Haggard in Kansas City in the early 1990s.Security wouldn't let Merle into the green room until we (the opening act, a guitar duo) had left the building, so I never got the chance to meet him. Instead, I listened to his amazing show from the gravel parking lot out back. Despite that, it is still one of the best shows I have ever witnessed, through the load-out doors.
    You do Merle and Keith better than anyone I have ever heard. You add so much of your own chemistry, it is amazing, a real treat. Thank you so much for what you do.
