Baseball Music--------(The Greatest)

This song by Kenny Rogers may be the greatest baseball song I have ever heard. It is real classic in case you have never heard it.

Once again we turn to John Fogerty for our baseball fix.

I say the title and I knew that you had snatched the thought of John Fogarty right out of mouth. All three excellent.

Fogerty, Springsteen, & Dire Straits: love all 3

They are 3 artists/bands I like very much.

I say bands because you have Bruce Springsteen & the E Street Band. John Fogerty was obviously the lead singer for Creedence Clearwater Revival. And of course, Dire Straits is a band.

Here is one for ya... this is the classic version of "Take Me Out To The BallGame."

This guy is one of my faves on YouTube, but he never allows embedding like this of his vids. I guess he wants to spread his Bosox love.

By Steve Goodman....the talented songwriter/musician that also wrote "You Never Even Called Me By My Name". I just learned that Steve was terminally ill when he did this performance.

Robert,

Thanks so much for posting that. It's always been one of my favorites, ever since I was lucky enough to hear Steve Goodman in concert. It wasn't long after that he passed from leukemia.

I also like his "World's Greatest Country Song", or something close to that.

There is not a lot of Steve on Youtube....I just happened across this one tonight. I think I heard it once but am not sure. It was a must post for RRBBS when I found it.


You're Welcome Larry

Nope. Not very close. Sorry... It was called "You Never Called Me By My Name". http://tinyurl.com/qfxyg

That's it! Thank you!

You gotta love the lyric: "Well I was drunk the day my mom got out of prison. And I went to pick her up in the rain
But before I could get to the station in a pickup truck
She got run'd over by a damned old train
And I'll hang around..."
