"A Sweet Farewell
The show’s final episode in 2022 marked the end of an era, but “Larry’s Country Diner” lives on through syndication."
So I'm sure those last episodes LIVE were in that last year of recording.
Sounds so good. Paul is just mesmerizing with his Dynamic way of phrasing so passionately.

"Together Again" and "Look at Us". It don't get much better as far as steel is concerned. May Tom Brumley and John Hughey rest in peace. I love Paul's little touches on these classic standards of the instrument especially that bar slant slide on "Together Again".
Rejoice in the Lord, O ye righteous; praise is meet for the upright. Give praise to the Lord with the harp, chant unto Him with the ten-stringed psaltery. Sing unto Him a new song, chant well unto Him with jubilation. For the word of the Lord is true, and all His works are in faithfulness. The Lord loveth mercy and judgement; the earth is full of the mercy of the Lord.
- Psalm 33:1-5

That episode has to be at least several years old. Jimmy Capps as “The Sheriff” is on guitar, he passed away in June, 2020.

Thanks for bringing back a fond memory and your nice words...Bakersfield came out 11 years ago which is the age of this episode.
Vince and I did several television appearances that month... Loved seeing Jimmy Capps.

Thanks a Million Ricky Davis!
My favorite song by a long shot! Even before Paul Franklins addition to the song!
Through the years in the back seat of a 69 Coupe Deville Cadillac in the golden years that song made many couples test the shock absorbers through the emotions of that song! What a Memory some songs have like that one. All we have are memories of those great Country Steel Guitar days long gone.
