One thought on “The Marshall Tucker Band: A New Life”

  1. I have a uncle who lives up there and his name is Harrold W. Approximately 74 give or take, kin to Benton W. My father. Uncle Harrold played the steel guitar and could make it cry. Like my dad always said it would bring a tear to a glass eye. I have written an recorded pattern music from my dad’s band called Rock Bottom. Can someone help me get it to an Artist who could do something with this straight up pure old country music?
