Thread Name: Whiskey voice - what is it?
Subject: RE: Whiskey voice - what is it?
Old friend, Larry Penn, a retired truck driver from Milwaukee, Wis was said to have a voice like "beer for breakfast funk." I always thought it was accurately applied.
Larry wrote "I'm A Little Cookie"
When he had to stop drinking, he wrote a real great one called "The Whisky's Gone"
The whisky's gone, the whisky's gone,
Left me here to sing this song...
