Finally saw the documentary... some of the editing annoyed me, cutting into songs for the talking heads, but obviously it's an honest tearjerker.

Well it’s worth clicking thru. Just incredible music paired with early 80s local access TV production from Hamilton Ontario.

Big fan of his voice and guitar playing of course, but some hits just never gelled with me. Now I am giving them another chance.

Such as “Dreams of the Everyday Housewife”
Or “True Grit”
The latter is pretty good and was a number one country hit in Canada.

Even“Gentle on My Mind”

This last being the theme of the Goodtime Hour, I must have heard it dozens of times if not hundreds but usually kind of tuned it out.

Even something like “Rhinestone Cowboy”

Which I previously dismissed as some kind of novelty song.

Or “Southern Nights”despite Allen Toussaint

I will probably get dinged for not liking these songs all along.

And I am still working on “Honey, Come Back”
Which was a pretty big hit and written by Jimmy Webb! Who knew?
