Celeste and I have made a New Year s Resolution. No, it s not more exercise or a dry January. It s not eating more healthy or spending more time with the family. Our resolution is a little different. Your WBLM morning show has pledged that in 2021, that whenever we play the Charlie Daniels Classic, The Devil Went Down to Georgia , that we will immediately play The Devil Went Down to Jamaica immediately afterward. Why? because whenever we DO play the CDB Classic, we always get a MILLION calls to play the Jamaica version. So why fight it? We started playing the David Allan Coe version of the song on the Blimp Morning Show a lot in 2020. And now, we get a ton of requests for it!
to do an album of bob dylan music? i have been a bob dylan fan for many years. i wanted to do a tribute to him, but i wanted to do it in my band s style. we went through songs we could put our mark on. if we came to a song we didn t feel we could put our mark on, we stepped over and went to another. with dylan, you never run out of material. we got to ten songs and made an album out of it and called it off the grid because it s acoustical, doing it dylan because it s all dylan music. it s called off the grid, doing it dylan. we re going to play tangled up in blue as we go to break. when we come back, we ll do a charlie daniels classic. let s do it.
