ALAN JACKSON - Good Time - " countin' the days to Fri-day night - that when all the conditions is right for a Good Time!"

Alan Jackson is one of my most favorite male singers, I saw him at a local C&W dance/dinner venue back in the 90s(The Cocky Bull); a small dance hall stage, we sat about 5 feet from where he was seated, playing guitar and singing. In person, he is the guy that he sings about in his songs....I hope that made sense. O.K., one of my more favorite Alan Jackson songs is:

Rodeo is a hard way to make a living, not for the faint of heart. George Strait is "up there" as a favorite singer, saw him at the National Orange Show[Pavillion] back in the '80s.

A good George Strait song:

Alan Jackson is good Marian, but my real favourites tend to come from earlier times.

An old pal of mine from way back, Bill Craig. He used to be a modestly successful rock guitarist in the UK and Canada with the band, "Edward Bear". In those days he had long ginger hair. Then he 'went back to his roots' so to speak, played with some top folk bands and is now based in Toronto where he tours the Folk circuit.

I loved the real folk stuff, like The Chad Mitchell Trio, the Kingston Trio and Joan Baez.

The song I can't get out of my head at the moment is Tennessee Whiskey sung by Chris Stapleton. Absolutely love his version.
