Harley Allen Band at the Station Inn, Nashville, Tn. on March 19, 2010. Josh Matheny on dobro, David Harvey on mandolin, Andy Todd on Bass, Barry Crabtree on banjo, Debbie Nims and Jan Harvey on vocals.
Harley Allen died recently. God bless him. He was an absolutely brilliant songwriter, author of The Baby, Stray Dogs and Alley Cats, Simple Life, Awful, Beautiful Life, The Little Girl, and many other famous and beautiful country songs. When my son Andy first came to Nashville, Harley gave him a break and included him in his band. He saw talent and supported it. May he rest in peace.
Greg told me about this song and to look it up. First chance I've had to do so. I'll be seeing Greg this afternoon for my guitar lessons. Maybe we'll work on this one, too.
