Buc McMaster Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 Probably won't get to do a Sunday morning coffee tune this week, so here's a Friday night Coca Cola song........ EA is soon to be the proud owner of a Hummingbird, so here ya go, sir........a little 'Bird to tide you over until next week............. A bible's worth of words in this one but I remembered them all! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yTk92DAL3LI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flatbaroque Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 Great song.I worked with a bloke and during conversation once he mentioned his daughter's name - "Falena".-I said to him"Are you a Marty Robbins fan?"...He just grinned and said "Too right mate". I think he used to play a very small Martin Terz size guitar....Marty Robbins that is, not the guy from work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdd707 Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 Good job as usual Buc .... you have a good range to hit those Marty Robbins high notes. Coke in a bottle gives you that burn that you don't get from a glass or can. About Feleena's life: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MissouriPicker Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 That is a cool rendition of a sweet tune. You sounded real good. And you definitly had the right hat and right guitar for that song. The "bird" has a great twang. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j45nick Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 Buc, great version of a Marty Robbins classic. I've always loved this song. It was a huge hit when I was 12 or 13, and I knew every single word, although I'd need some prompting now on some of the lines. Sometimes, I still break into this song at odd times, and my wife looks at me like I'm completely mad, especially since it's such a long a complicated song with a whole bunch of words in it. It's a complete ballad, and follows the form of a lot of traditional ballads in both subject matter and structure. The original version has those wonderful, subtle multi-part harmonies that I associate with groups like the Sons of the Pioneers, who are also personal favorites. You can't go wrong with a good cowboy ballad, and this one's a great one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
