Much appreciate your music, Mr. Welles. Many folks have compared your music to Bob Dylan and Woody Guthrie, but I’d like to say your style is your own. Keep doing what you’re doing!
Bob Dylan didn't suck your insane. He wrote modern day masterpieces, watch some old footage of him in his 20's rather than him in his 60's. If you understand anything about Americano music and the roots where our country music came from you would have a different opinion.
Was feeling almost suicidal yesterday. This is one of the few things pulling me out of the dark today. Thank you for making the world a better place. I'm going to try pay this positive energy forward.
death is the same as before you were born, a state of no being, in that state, time is relative, and just as before, an eternity will last an instant. i recommend not committing suicide because life is pretty short anyway. good luck
please, dont be afraid to dial 988 on your phone if you in america, if you not ill find the number in the country you are in.. dont be afraid to call them.. even if you feel a little bit that way.. they are there to help, its anon, and you wont be judged!
If you can manage it, try to promise yourself you won't do it until every part of you has given up. If even a cell in your body wants to keep going, try to hold on. And of course, seek help, try to imagine a future where you'd want to live, and pull every favor you can to help you make it a reality. And try not to let yourself feel guilty, it's not your fault.
Impressive. The fact he can play and sing amazes me. Playing chords and singing is impressive but the picking patterns while singing is on a different level. Love this stuff brother keep em coming
I am in complete agreement regarding Townes. He was covering The Stones when he sang Dead Flowers. Not trying to be "that guy" but doing a horrible job of it, take care fellow Townes enjoyer.
This song has been stuck in my head the last few days! 🥀🎶💓 Not too shabby. Looking like a young Jagger and sounding more like Townes. Your a funny guy Jesse😂
This is such a great cover of TVZ’s cover of the Stones song. I love this song so much. When I was 19, my friend Mike had Hepatitis very bad from being a Junkie, he asked me over and over to dance naked on his grave with long stemmed roses, I couldn’t do that much less lie to Mike, like me he loved the Stones and the Grateful Dead …and he morphed our love of them into wishing I would dance with red roses, naked on his grave. Michael was Gay, but he didn’t want to be. He died a little over a week after my 20th birthday. His funeral was huge, my mom and 2 of my sisters & all of close friends were at Michael’s funeral. He promised me that he was going to do something at his funeral to embarrass me and he did!!! I grew up in a large city near Los Angeles, his funeral was in this huge Catholic Cathedral, there were hundreds of people, the police closed one of the main streets in town, there were limos lined up, my mom, sisters, all of my girlfriends were there. We had to cross the big 5 lane street with police 👮 walking us across, I wore this very short dress with beige tights that matched and I did what I always did at 20, and wore tight fitting bikini underwear over my tights to keep them up and high platform heels. In the middle of Olive Street, I felt someone tug my underwear to my ankles, it was Mike, no one else was close enough to even touch me, I had to carefully hunch down (I couldn’t bend over, my dress was too short) and tug my underwear up. Everyone was laughing so hard, yikes, I will never forget & everyone who knew that Mike had promised to embarrass me, laughed even harder 😢😂😮😅😂❤❤
This is almost as good as Townes Van Zandt’s cover of Dead Flowers, which the Coen brothers used over the end credits to The Big Lebowski. Love the Stones version, of course but TVZ’s cover is still my favorite.❤️
Yes that introduced me to Ramblin Jack Elliott. Very sad time for Dylan but Desire and Blood on the tracks are some of my favorites! Helped me through a lot of my own pain
Your songs are always awesome, thank you for posting. I would love to listen to some of your stuff up on Spotify if that isn't too much trouble for you. Have a good one!
