I trust the FDA about as much as I can throw a full sized pickup.
Agreed.
And all the other government agencies as well.

Maybe that’s why we all have allergies to everything. Like peanuts, seafood and air.
Makes sense to me. I mean, we had preservatives in the 60's and 70's too, but they weren't THAT damned good.
Maybe that explains the rampant stupidity, as well...

Flour tortillas don't mold anymore? And is that safe to eat?
When I was a kid, we moved to Arizona. I got into some Mexican food, me...
But those flour tortillas would be all moldy in like 3 days. It was uncanny how fast they would go bad. In the fridge, out the fridge, didn't matter.
I found some the other day that had fallen back behind the dog food container and they must have been there for 2 weeks. Still looked perfect. Made me want to make a burrito and try 'em out.
I didn't, but still....
Now that I think about it, bread used to mold up a lot quicker, too. When I bake fresh bread (yea, I'm a baker) it's only good for few days, but the store bought loaves last forever.
This can't be good, eh?

You don't deserve her.

It's a good thing and may God bless you for it.
Both of mine have been gone a while. Ask as many family history questions as you can.
That's stuff you'll wonder about once there is no-one left to ask...

I couldn't partake in the hot-rod phase much as a teenager because I was gigging biker bars at age 17, I had to haul amps and p.a. gear and it was the 70's so the obvious answer most of the time was a van. But I never had a really nice one, all my expendable money went to gear, girls, beer and stuff.
I do, however remember this being true...

what do Americans call the panel between the 'fender' and the engine bay? Any way, inner wing to us Brits).
We call that the fender skirt.

I made some Christmas presents last night in America with dead American cow hide. A small sheath for my brothers Puma and some misc key hangers for whoever. Yea, I can't sew for crap. Gonna stick to Chicago screws and copper rivets.

Dig it, Steve. I always wanted a Scrambler. Actually found a basketcase late 60's when I was living in Lake Charles in the mid 80's but couldn't come to an agreement with the seller.
Now, restored, it would be worth a pretty penny.

We live in a different time and place than the 70s now. This performance is stellar. Comparing it to the original is irrelevant.
I agree 100%.
Dolly gave it her own touch while respecting the fact that this is the most loved classic song on her "rock" album.

Stunning guitar.
Suddenly, I need one...

Congrats on that Beauty! One of my friends left one of those at my house for a few years while he was on the road.. They are outstanding 12 String Guitars! Sadly, one day he came home & picked it up.. I wanted to buy it but it wasn’t for sale..
You should have just moved while he was gone.

They actually fake Epiphones?
Mind you, I have owned a few Epiphones in my life.I never knew.
🙂I found that a surprise as well.
I bought my daughter an Epiphone acoustic many years ago that is a fantastic guitar for the money.
But I have no idea how anyone could make any money faking Epiphones unless you did it by the thousands.

I listened to the whole thing. Very well produced if not a bit too much vocal howling in the outro, but then again it's a singer's album.
Brought back a lot of memories from the70's.
I thought it was downright haunting hearing Ronnies voice on a new recording, and pulling his own harmony out of the mix was freaking brilliant. I too played a lot of Skynyrd, in bars, throughout the late 70's, 80's, 90's and well into the aughts before going completely acoustic.
It's a chilling recording for someone with that history, for sure.

No, I beat mine up in bars and around camp fires.
However, I would never disrespect anybody for buying a Gibson.

Actually, I used to cover several Skynyrd tunes back in my electric gigging days.
But, I gotta say, this has always been one of my very favorite Skynyrd tunes.

Gibson and Tom Murphy have made a ton of money, together, over the years.
It was a brilliant idea.

I forgot about this American Made company and their many products.

The CG deal with drug interdiction, illegal alien migration,
I'm glad we have the fentanyl and illegal alien problem under control.
Otherwise, it would be chaos....

In the part just before the guitar solo, Dolly's and Ronny's voices interact in an incredible way. Goose bumps from a really old song done in a beautiful new way! 😄
I was shocked to hear Ronnie's voice, had no idea this had been done.
And then read about Gary recording for Dolly's version and the fact that Artimus was brought in and some fences mended was fantastic.
Artimus can be a whacko, but the clock is always ticking and I'm glad they got this done.
Now, retire the name....
