Traveling Wilburys, End of the Line
Amos Milburn, One Scotch, One Bourbon, One Beer
The Showmen, It Will Stand. If you remember this underplayed oldie, I'll buy you one scotch, one bourbon, one beer. There was an apologetic sub-genre around this time (1961) of songs celebrating R & R.
Fleetwood Mac, Mission Bell. Haunting cover of the upbeat Donnie Brooks hit.
Merle Haggard, The Fugitive
Them, Here Comes the Night. This YouTuber got it right: "Love this song - still sounds as raw and as fresh as it did nearly 50 years ago!" Yes, raw, edgy, yet tender. Unforgettable.
Les Paul at 90, Sleepwalk. No offense to the great guitar pioneer Paul, but Joe Satriani's version is hard to beat. The 1959 original by Santo and Johnny.
