An excellent Father's Day spotlight on country music tributes to our fathers, always with us. Thanks Tom Roland for the list!
This post dedicated to the memories of my dad, a Father's Day baby who would be 72 today, and another dad I remember fondly, the dad of 4 of my oldest friends. Here are two songs that remind me of them.
Oh What a Beautiful Morning, from the film featuring Gordon MacRae. Years ago, my dad sang Curley in a local production of Oklahoma!. This was for years afterward his signature song, and his voice was still beautiful into his 60s.
I Believe, by Diamond Rio. This song appeared on the radio shortly after my friends' dad Keith was diagnosed with cancer. I may not "believe in ghosts" like the lyrics, but the song still makes me cry.
