I heard Steve Young perform this song many times and I was inspired to perform it live at Vonnie's yard party.

GENRE SOUP
I was inspired by hearing my friend Steve Young perfom this cover at The Hamm Jam in 2006. This live recording happened at Vonie' yard party shortly after. Rest in peace Steve Young and Vonnie Mae Exner.


LEGENDARY COUNTRY MUSIC
Great song, Jimmy, performed in your characteristically classic mid-western country style. Listening to it I found myself drifting away and sitting around that campfire under the stars with you, Les and Roy like we have dreamed about for 20 years. You have such a way with a song like "Rock Salt and Nails". Toss another log on the fire and play it again, pardner!!
