C. W. McCall .....

For writing and performing one of the finest pieces of Comedy Ballads - Wolf Creek Pass.

I just had a purely enjoyable several minutes listening to the incredible lyrics and cadence. It's perfect. humuhummmhummm haha.

That's quite a story. And Artistic detail. Not the Three Words mumbled 79 times in the modern song....ishhhh.

. Salute!

I'm not sure I remember that one but I think he sang Convoy too . All about the truckin . Some days I wish I was on the open road just driving from town to town . Other days I'm glad I can go home every night .

Thanks
Kurt

I LOVE that song....it is just hysterically funny

Kurt, you are right - he did sing Convoy as well as some other trucking/CB radio type songs !

The man is a WORDSMITH. I was just telling Kelly about the song and recalled about 39%. "I looked at Earl and his eyes were wide. His lip was curled and his leg was fried ..., hahaha.

What a joy over the standard one phrase wonders making $178m per year. Heard one day of her experience ....," ..... to a friend of hers - send me that track and I can write words to it in 20 minutes." Yeah.

Still smile at CW's word pic. "... 1,000 cubes of 1948 Peterbilt screamed to life", "..... Of a tunnel ..... Sign said clearance at the 12' line - but those crates were stacked to 13'9". Haha.

It's worth anybody's time to google/Bing it.



Yes - Convoy is also full of detail. The fact that I heard that 1,764 times thru the years does make Wolf Creek take favorite though. Haha.

Thanks Bill
