Jerry Jeff Walker

[Splitear]

I just saw that one of my favorite singer/songwriters, Jerry Jeff Walker died. He was actually originally from Oneonta. His version of Guy Clark’s “Desperados Waiting for a Train” is one of my all time favorites. I always tear up, reminded of my late Grandfather, especially when I hear “we closed our eyes and dreamed us up a kitchen, and sang another verse to that old song”.
