@odd I don't remember that one. Always glad to give Cash another listen.
@odd Kristofferson was trying to make it as a songwriter, sent his agent a demo of (I think) "Me and Bobby McGee." Agent said, "I think you should record this." Kristofferson said "But I can't sing." Agent said, "That's true, but I really like the way you can't sing."
@cliffordbeshers I got one that was moderately impressed with me moving around stuff in my office ... ehhh, sorry ... her bedroom
@JMaxB His version is pretty good, but the simple country rhythms just seems boring next to Joplin's ripped vocals.
@cliffordbeshers Janis Joplin can do no wrong. Musically, anyway. I revisit "Ball & Chain" regularly.
