R.I.P. Jesse Winchester

Post by John Etherington »

Very sad to hear that Jesse Winchester has died. Here's his version of "Brand New Tennessee Waltz":

RIP Jesse. I came here to post his "Sham-a-Ling-Dong-Ding" but see it is already posted (thanks, Junk!). I had not heard this until Roscoe Beck posted a picture of himself with Jesse on Facebook. Sylvie Simmons then put a link to this song in the comments. I think the tear it brings to Neko Case's eye is so touching. If ever there was a classic song, from my teenage years-this was it.
