The Byrds - You're Still On My Mind

Lee Baucum · From: McAllen, Texas (Extreme South) The Final Frontier

Our band has been playing this classic for about 20 or 25 years. It was written by Luke McDaniel. Some web sites reflect that the song was performed by George Jones and the Byrds. Did the old Possum ever record this tune?

I guess so.

Scroll down the page a bit and you can listen to a small clip of George singing this tune.

Great playing by Jay Dee Maness on the Byrds version.

As I recall, the Sweethearts album had both Jay Dee and Lloyd Green.

I have a version by George on the Cup Of Loneliness collection. I love that song. Here's a that version. http://www.wideopenwest.com/~dive25/Yourstill.mp3

I also have some cds and cd box sets for sale. Check it out. http://steelguitarforum.com/Forum18/HTML/000720.html

Yes, Lee, they both played on Sweetheart. Lloyd chimed in here a while back and sorted out who played on what songs. Jay Dee played on this one, according to Lloyd. In fact, it's pretty easy to tell when you listen to the tune. The tone between the two players is completely different.

On my deluxe box set of Sweetheart, you can hear the producer asking Jay Dee to turn down the high end on the steel just before a take. Very cool listening.

I like Redd Volkaert's version on his "Telewacker" CD, it also features Muph on steel. It's a great song!
