Country Gentlemen - Dark as a Dungeon скачать видео бесплатно

Denise Youman

One day after hunting with a friend, my granddad left the loaded Browning 12 gauge leaning against a dresser. My then 5 year old dad saw the gun, picked it up, and walked into the hall near the stairs. BOOM, off went the shotgun tearing out the (original) banister. The man grandfather was hunting with was in a nearby bathroom, and came running out in lightning speed to see what happened, AND forgetting to pull his pants up... my dad would laugh in delight when he recalled that man standing in his “all together”, as dad called it. “What happened to you” I asked? “Well, I was knocked backwards, and I was so scared; it’s a wonder no one got killed. If anyone had been on the stairs they would have been killed”. “My Dad took me to the dungeon and shut me in as punishment. We walked past all the prisoners in their cages, and then through a large heavy door from the basement area and down a long ramp, and then entered another huge heavy door to get there.It was a windowless very dark, frightening cold damp space. I don’t remember how long he left me in there, I was so scared.”To this day, my father says hearing that old heavy door clank shut in the damp darkness was the most frightening lonely noise he has ever heard...And that says a lot since he is a Pearl Harbor survivor witnessing the horrific Japanese attack of Sunday, Dec 7, 1941.

Country music has never seen a better voice than the voice of Charlie Waller.

Shawn Nycz

Charlie died of a heart attack, not cancer.

Tom Smith

Great version.

Nate Ngzcaz

Definitely different from J. Cash's.. more smooth... a crooner if you will. if that's your thing. I'm not sure it fits this song. Great vocals and harmony no doubt.

Duffy's pants! That just goes to show just exactly how much personality that he possessed. Only he could pull that off while standing beside Charlie with a coat and tie. Also, Johnny Cash has a pretty mean rendition of this song, too.

Samandrosa jones

This is great song !!! You guys sing it so good !!! 

Howard Dixon

greatest song ever written! Honestly, this song must have been inspired by G-d himself.

R. T. McMunn

Good to see Mr. Charlie Waller on the screen since I haven't seen his Image in a great while. Charlie succumbed to cancer about three years ago.

Charles Morris

This one of the first 2 songs I heard by the Gents..the other was Paradise.

John Duffy's pants were called Zubaz I beleive. www.zubaz.com. Thanks to Merle Travis for writing it but no one will ever again perform this bluegrass ballad like Charlie Waller could, magnificent!.

Lula Todd

Moon Noggin

Thank you so much for sharing this video. I saw them in Lavonia, Ga years ago and he stirred my soul there too, as he is so gifted to do even on film. Amazing.
