Your Favourite folk and country songs and music Old and new!"!

I love old(ish)time Country Music
Musician Ronnie Milsap was born blind and shunned by his mother, who believed his blindness was punishment from God.
He was raised by his grandparents, learned Braille at the age of 6, and lost the last remnant of his sight after a blow from a teacher at school.

well tbh I don't miss him because we never saw him here in real life.. or even on TV...so as we still have all his music I feel as tho' he's still here...

Did you see the documentary following his last year of life ..? I'll be Me ?... it was a fascinating insight into the mind of a music genius with alzheimers' disease...

During that last year he recorded the poignant... ''I'm not gonna miss you ''... How true that was. Instead everyone misses him...

Yep, I saw his last show, as I recall his daughter was with him and they sang some of his songs together. I miss his creative talent. Once they are gone the new songs, they would perform for us stop.
