Source of "On the Road Again" Not his first recording of it but what a line up for Floyd Floyd Jones is actually credited as the co-writer with Alan Wilson of On The Road Again, not as the source. Shine On Michael

Not Blues, but interesting in a nerdy way :-) Nerdy, but interesting. It happens a lot with artists that do big shows. I saw the Eagles back in 1977 at the Empire Pool, Wembley, and they were superb. No mimed vocals, all live and all brilliant. What a catalogue of songs and what a signature sound. Although much of that classic sound was influenced by Jackson Browne. They were a superb band, but I lost interest after Hotel California. Their first few albums were definitive. Shine On Michael I always liked Desperado, though the critics poo pooed it, though I think their best album was “On The Border”, the 1st with Don Felder on guitar, gave it an edge.

My birthday today, and a friend sent me this song written by Roy Book Binder. What a great song to work on and reflect on during my birthday. Thought I'd share it with you...

I know the song well. Roy is an old friend and a fine writer, performer, picker & singer. ![](https://michaelmesser.proboards.com/attachment/download/10981) Shine On Michael ![](//storage.proboards.com/302874/thumbnailer/GRPFCMReGLfgWOJRdjRn.png)

haha -- thank you Michael for the birthday candles resonator! Fine sounding guitar that Roy Book Binder's playing. Vintage Gibson for sure -- looks to be maybe a 13 fret to the body Nick Lucas model. Any thoughts anyone?

There is strong evidence that my 1931 Triolian was once owned by Roy Bookbinder. When I bought it from Gruhns it was set up for fingerstyle playing rather than slide. If it was his, Roy's inferred mojo didn't improve my playing very rapidly I'm sorry to say. ![:-[](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/embarrassed.png)

^^^^ PD, thanks for the heads up. i had been scheming on buying Noel Redding's squire venus XII @ reverb dot com so i could learn to play bass...
happy breathday Eddy, wishes for many more successful laps around the sun.
Jorma's song struck me a paraphrase of "another man done gone" from 1974 album "Quah":

Hi all Just picked up this very nice album by latter day Allmans guitarist Warren Haynes. Very rootsy, recorded with bluegrass band ‘Railroad Earth’ and features first class music throughout. Warren’s slide guitar is superb too. ![](https://i.postimg.cc/gjJxwhC2/4-C48-AFE8-5342-4909-A69-C-526-DB055-A544.jpg) Check it out! Best wishes Andy
