Anybody have “The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down” stuck in their ears??

Not currently, and it never stuck in my head that kind of way. Good song though.
The one that really gets me if I dare hear it somewhere is "Brandy (You're a Fine Girl)". :rofl
Never fails... I'll be singing that dang song all day.
 
Loved Joan Baez' version. I also have a great live version by the Black Crowes.
It's a song I used to do years ago when I did solo acoustic gigs.
 
Dudes..
Levon controls the ENTIRE room of musicians
in the song with the top of his from his
RAD voice & dope af range to the tips drumsticks.
That’s F’N DYNAMICS dudes!
Watch this clip of him closely and what’s going on
in the mix.



 
I’m Trollin’ my own Troll’s here fellas..,,
-besides The Dixie,
I’ve been creatively purplexed
& obsessed with my own flavor of the vibes
from the fruits of Andy Summers.
In my world of guitarist influences:
-as T-Soprano would call him…,
”one of my captains”.
For me, these “flavors” are string skipping riffs, clever creativity with simple effects & the right hand improvements are off the charts.
Copeland..UNREAL..-top shelf only club.
-I’m rather pleased to say the least,
-that Sting got devoured in Dune,
However,
-his vocal purity is incomprehensibly swine..
His vocal key really does STING🎯
Man the chorus D to A thingy sound.. DOPE AF💯
STOKED!!

We just added De Do Do Do to the setlist. Fun song! A little tricky to play Summers' part and sing the vocals, in the verses.
 
Nope, but Old Dixie Highway is 100ft from my apartment!

US 1? :idk

What is kind of neat is that connects all the way up to Michigan. Before the Interstates
happened in the middle part of the 20th Century the aptly named "Dixie" Highway
connected North and South.

Close-

Blue circle is Dixie Highway (or 811) and the red/pink is US-1 (or Federal Highway)

Aside from just putting addresses like NW 1st Ave, NW 1st Terrace, NW 1st Pl right next to each other, we have 2 names for almost every major street down here. I work on Cypress Creek Rd, which is also NW 62nd St. :rofl

I’m off 3rd Ave to the west of Dixie.
 
This is a cool read.


Never thought about it until you mentioned Dixie Highway and I know there is a
Dixie Highway in Michigan Sounds like US1 and Dixie Hwy. merge and become
one in certain spots along the FLA Coast. :idk

I think I smell the Harley itching to take that route some day. :unsure:

Right on, I never knew that was the history of it, or that US1 is called Dixie Highway. Thanks! I know it runs through quite a few areas where you’ll absolutely see someone fuck a chicken if you hang around long enough.
