So sad that he's nearing the end. I'm not even sure I'll watch the link you posted, just too hard. As a kid, my dad constantly listened to Galveston and Wichita Lineman. I miss those days.

Yeah, I hear ya on that. I can't listen to it too much cause it gets me choked up. But having lost my Mom to Alzheimer's two years ago (hard to believe it's coming on three now), the song does have a special meaning.

Practically anything by Red Sovine gets me teary-eyed.

The Long Black Veil. Written in 1959, it is on the order of an old time ballad. It's been recorded by numerous artists, but my favorite is by the Band.
