The Gentle Giant

Miscellaneous
Edward Hessler


Don Williams 1939 - 2017.  

In a Washington Post obituary in the Washington Post Kristen M. Hall writes about Don Williams that “Everyone who makes country music with grace, intelligence, and ageless intent will do so while standing on the shoulders of this gentle giant.”

He won an Emmy for Tulsa Time in 1978. 

And here is Cheryl Crowe and Eric Clapton  singing and playing this tune in 2007, aided and abetted by an incredible array of musicians.
