Hi people,
Could anyone guide me to the best sounding version of Tom T. Hall's "I Love" with the "old TV shows and snow" lyric? I own a good-sounding "bourbon in a glass and grass" version. Thanks! Andy |

Andy, until your post I was unaware of a version with that alternate lyric. I
now want a "hard copy" of it myself. I wondered if I might already own that version on CD, so I just checked the db, and noticed that the vast majority of CDs that include the version with that lyric are Time-Life CDs. So I honed in on the 2-CD "Classic Country 1970-74", as I know I do own some volumes in that series. Turns out I didn't have that specific volume. But I just found a "like new" copy for under 10 bucks. I wouldn't be surprised if T/L used the exact same digital clone for all their CDs that include it (as Ron/CFTP has detailed for us many times for other songs.) I'll be happy to shoot it out to you when I get it, if no one else has hooked you up with it in the meantime... |

I likewise was unaware of a "clean" version of this one...my
promo has the "bourbon and grass" version. I'd be interested in hearing a dub of this one myself. |

Not only all that but here's these rhymes..."I love...and wine" then he does a non-rhyme, and finally "and wood" followed by a line that closes :and life" making it seem like and edit of a longer version :rolleyes:
Happy new year,btw! Edited by Steve Carras |

You know you're really older when you think that younger singer Jesse McCartney's related in anyway to former Beatle Paul McCartney.

I have the "old TV shows and snow" lyric on three CDs.
The first is Time-Life's 2-CD Echoes Of Love (1991), where it sounds pretty good. The tinkly keyboard in the intro is in the right channel. I don't know where this "TV shows" lyric version came from, but it goes back at least as far as 1991. Time-Life's 2-CD Classic Country Vol. 4 1970-1974 (1998) uses the same analog transfer as Echoes Of Love, but swaps the left and right channels, so that the tinkly keyboard in the intro is in the left channel. Time-Life's 2-CD Singers And Songwriters Vol. 15 The '70s (2001) is digitally exactly 0.978 dB louder than Classic Country Vol. 4 1970-1974, and also has the tinkly keyboard in the intro in the left channel. Not sure which of these discs has its channels swapped. There's a great parody of this song called "I Like", done by Heathen Dan. The parody got a bunch of airplay on Dr. Demento in the '80s, and appears on the LP The Rhino Brothers Present The World's Worst Records (1983). Oddly enough, I think there are also two different versions of "I Like", with different lyrics! Edited by crapfromthepast |

There's a lot of crap on the radio, but there's only one Crap From The Past.

There were. I would love to find a clean dub of the version that's NOT on the Rhino album, all I have is a noisy 2nd or 3rd generation tape that was recorded from his local LA show in the early 80s. |

I've heard that one, it was also played a lot in the 1990s as well. |

If I recall correctly, the "TV Shows and Snow" lyric debuted
on Tom T. Hall's Mercury LP "Songs Of Fox Hollow" Tom T. Hall sings Country songs for children of all ages. |
