Check out Glen Campbell (and Steve Wariner) tearing it up instrumentally on Galveston.

Galveston live



Incredible combination.
Steve Wariner was so good too. I was always a fan of his stuff. I think Glen tried too hard on that.
Damn what a song though.
I also liked what Steve Wariner did after that first bar on the baritone, he just leaned over and gave Glen Cambell a shoulder bump, like..Top this shite..
" I clean my gun and dream of Galveston".

Don’t know who wrote it, but IMO David Allan Coe’s version is the best.

with all due respect to Guy Clark as the writer and JJW as the original recorder, DAC's is the superior version. I think his version of Tennessee Whiskey is super to Jones's as well, and Jones is one of my favorite singers of all time.

I love that song, but kind of felt like it was rip off of Dylan's "Romance In Durango".

I haven't read the whole thread yet but Rock Salt and Nails is a favorite every time I hear it. Not sure who originally wrote it. maybe Utah Phillips?
