Bobby Osborne passed away yesterday. Age 91. RIP.

"Ruuuu-beeee, Ruby!" I can't ever think about the Osborne brothers without hearing that line. Bobby had a distinctive voice that rang like, well, a big spike hammer. He will be missed. Sonny's been gone almost a couple of years now.

Blaze was born in Malvern Arkansas.

Here is a cool story about Blaze and Townes Van Zandt.

''At his funeral, Foley's casket was coated with duct tape by his friends. Townes Van Zandt told a story where he and his musicians went to Foley's grave to dig up his body because they wanted the pawn ticket that Foley had for Townes' guitar.''

Yeah... no one can confirm if that story is actually true.
Ol' Townes was known to stretch the truth a little apparently.
It sure is entertaining though and honestly doesn't seem too far outside the realm of possibility with those cats.

David Allan Coe.

My first car was almost a '59 Cadillac Hearse for $500 (the above looks to be an '61). I liked station-wagons in general, but I passed on it as I thought it might hurt my chances for dates ... or, if I did get dates, they might not be my "type".

Lightning Hopkins with an interesting brim treatment.

Change the word “wig” to “hat”. This is how your wife feels (mine, at least)!

In particular his " mountain" creased hat has made an impression
