Title: Re: Joe South has passed on Post by: rn57 on September 05, 2012, 08:28:32 PM His comparative silence since the mid 1970s does not alter the fact that Joe South was one of the greatest songwriters of his time or any time...and one hell of a guitarist...and a damn fine singer. Brian liked his "Games People Play" a lot. RIP, Joe....

Sad to hear this. I heard once that he lost his brother back in the early 70's and that really had a profound effect on him, I hope they're reunited finally somewhere. the next time you hear that song, think about him playing that Sitar, it takes the soul on that track to a whole other level. Great songwriter, great singer, great musician. |
