Gary P. Nunn 'London Homesick Blues (Home with the Armadillo)'

[bryanbillau]

Remember meeting Gary in The Broken Spoke in Austin circa 1982. Told me he wrote this song while on tour to London with Gerry Geoff Walker. Great night!

Still watching in 2024! It's February 2 - Happy Armadillo Day! Bee Cave Bob the Armadillo will come out of his hole and predict more winter or early spring! 😁

No question, he can still get himself back in that place! Thank you.

[RW_DogRanch]

Very intimate version of one o' my most favorite songs.

[Doodle]

I've followed his career since 1966 when he was in the best rock-n-roll band to come out of Lubbock, Texas-The Sparkles.

[MultiBaldEagle]

I'm not from texas, I'm Georgia, but by God, I know good music when I hear it! I LOVE the guy on the electric guitar!

[EdwardLively]

Six people don’t know what good music really is.

[tigerdog]

I have this song on a 33 vinyl lp and 45 single

[midnightrider]

Such a cool song! I wish I had the skills and talent to write about bad experiences in my life!

[raycooper]

His voice is not as good as it once was but you gotta love his music!  I remember him from around Austin back in the early 70s when he played all the local joints.  Those were some great years.  Willie, Waylon, Jerry Jeff, Gary P. and a bunch of others hit it big from the Hill Country.

[OklahomSouthwind]

I play this shit on my favorite bars jukebox every time i walk in the door! This is some real legit texas shit!

[alansmith]

[wheelmanstan]

[rochelleanderson]

[inatizzy]

[thndrsound]

Compare this wonderful man with the 'boy' singing at the second Willie Nelson Fourth of July Picnic thirty seven years earlier. He's definitely a 'Hoss.'
