Cool story! Danny wrote quite a few good tunes for Don Williams and others.The GOAT rock n roll band
please indulge an anecdote...
In high school we had a talent show, and a band sang this song. The lead singer went on to play in Don Williams' band and wrote a hit song " Tulsa Time " which was an ACM Award winner later covered by Eric Clapton. Here is a good version
nice guitar work for those three guys
ok I was talking jazz with some folks today and I posed my ideal North Carolina jazz band:
John Coltrane (sax) hamlet NC
Thelonious Monk (piano) Rocky Mount NC
Woody Shaw (trumpet ) Laurinburg NC
Percy Heath ( bass ) Wilmington NC
Max Roach ( drums ) Newland NC
Nina Simone ( singer ) Tryon NC
Can another state match that group ?
