Probably one the best cover versions of any song. I think it almost equals the original.

From the BEST band in the world U2 with a little help from Ziggy Marley and Keith Richards Love Rescue Me - U2

An underrated song from the mighty Led Zep

The song Struttin reminded me of this one.

Lets throw in my Mets to the mix. I think they might make the cellar in NL East. But I still love them no matter what. Best thing they did so far in the off-season is get rid of the black and go back to their classic pinstrip uniforms and blue caps. I'm gone Darrell

Dr Seuss (Happy Birthday) Agree with ya Roger, the animated Grinch is THE one.

I wish I could help ya out with Vance. But I found a good description of the Mego Dukes Of hazzard collection . http://www.megomuseum.com/teevee/dukescoyandvance.html Seems like Vance is the hardest to find. I'm gone Darrell

It has been 10 years since we lost a true outlaw legend. I hope he will never be forgotten. Everyone who sees this thread, try to listen to a song from the original outlaw today and remember the great music he brought us. Good Ol' Boys - Waylon Jennings I'm gone Darrell

As far as the Facebook page , it is great but it pales in comparison to actually coming to HazzardNet. I love the things that ya'll are doing on the Facebook page and to me that is a tease to come on over here. I understand the way Facebook is shifting the way people use the internet especially for the convienence and I am not a fan of it in that aspect. On my Facebook, I "like" a ton of things and do like to get updates but I also prefer to go to the websites of most of my "likes". Does that make sense? Ya'll know I think HazzardNet is the world to me and what an awesome, awesome job ya'll do to keep this place running the way it is. (now how much of Brian's 50% of 50% of 50% do I get for promoting HazzardNet all over Facebook?) I'm gone Darrell

It is truly sad to hear about Al Wyatt. Even though he wasn't front and center on the DOH, he was just as important. All the stunt work and backstage work on the show brought all we love to the TV screen. We have lost way too many people from the BEST show on TV. I'm gone Darrell

Might have been a better commercial if they showed the actual lunchbox. But am glad that DOH was referrenced. I'm gone Darrell

Congrats on your 10 year anniversary. That is awesome and goes to show how loyal someone is to HazzardNet. I am glad you are back and have enjoyed your writings. I hope you partake in them again. As far as Facebook, I "liked" HazzardNet on there and follow it. Glad they post the clips and blurbs. BUT as far as using Facebook as a forum , I don't think so. I always come here. I feel this is the Dukes world and where the comments and all should be. Don't get me wrong I like facebook but I LOVE HazzardNet. I don't care (well maybe a little) that there is 10 regular posters, they are the ones who "discovered" H-net and want to be here. Hopefully facebook fans will mosey on over to these parts to see what HazzardNet is all about. I'm gone Darrell

Wow I am actually humbled with this honor. All I can say is a big THANK YOU to everyone here at HazzardNet. It is all of you who make this place my daily journey, the posts, games and the awesome fanfic. There is no place out there like HazzardNet nor will there ever be. I honestly don't know what I would do if there was no H-Net. How can I leave out what our awesome mods do? They have built a great fan site and maintained it with the utmost respect to all of us - the fans. Brian, MaryAnne, Mufn - THANK YOU. Well enough of me speaking ( I am sure I can come up with more later on ) Thank you HazzardNet for all the enjoyment you have giving us and willl continue to give us. I'm gone Darrell

Here is cover of a song originally done by the GREAT Robert Earl Keen. My opnion is that Joe Ely's version is the better one. I love the music arrangement better than the original. The Party Never Ends!!!!!!!!!

I will add a word back to the title.

Ladies and gentlemen , her majesty - QUEEN

Another one that started the 80s especially the 1980 tour and film in 1982 but came out in 79 This is the video from the movie with "Happiest Days Of Our Lives" segueing into the song. That is way most radio stations play the song.

How about a classic from a band that epitomized the 80s?

Have "Liked" HazzardNet on Facebook for a long time now. I think it is a great way to see the new articles and commentaries and then make my way to HazzardNet. Also love the reminders of what episodes will be playing on CMT( still glad they show the DOH although 2am stinks but what the heck happened to that channel) I'm gone Darrell

http://web.nascar.com/news/120118/revans-hof-bio/index.html 'Rapid Roman' Evans rode orange chariot to Hall DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. -- Richard Ernest "Richie" Evans certainly was the face of NASCAR -- and modified racing -- in the Northeast, winning an estimated 475 times in approximately 1,300 starts. It equates to a win in every three starts (a 36.5 percent clip), something unheard of in modern racing at any level. Evans will be inducted into the NASCAR Hall of Fame on Friday, one of five members of the Hall's third class comprised of the New York native, legendary crew chief Dale Inman, team owner Glen Wood, and Cup Series champions Darrell Waltrip and Cale Yarborough. Evans is the first of 15 inductees without a connection to NASCAR's premier series. All roads lead to Rome The 2012 enshrinement ceremony kicks off the NASCAR Acceleration 2012 weekend, which includes NASCAR Preview 2012, where fans can interact with the sport's legends and current stars in person, get autographs and catch a sneak peek at the upcoming season. Fans can go to NASCARacceleration2012.com for more information. Nicknamed the "Rapid Roman" by virtue of racing out of Rome, N.Y., Evans found a home in modifieds -- a car fashioned from pre-World War II coupes and sedans powered by high horsepower engines. Evans won nine NASCAR national modified championships during a 13-year span, including eight consecutive titles from 1978-85. His signature No. 61 orange race car was a magnet for fans and a terror to his fellow competitors. He worked on his own cars -- up to 100 hours a week -- and raced virtually every night of the week. "Working with the car and working on it in the garage every week is an advantage," Evans once said. "While I'm working on the car, I'm thinking about every lap I rode in that thing. It's not like the mechanic who stood and watched it during the feature and then has to make some decisions." Evans lost his life at age 44 while practicing at Martinsville Speedway for the 1985 season finale of the NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour. He'd earlier locked up the series' first championship along with a fourth consecutive Whelen All-American Northeast Region title. He was named one of NASCAR's 50 Greatest Drivers in 1998. On Jan. 10, the New York State Senate adopted a resolution honoring Evans' NASCAR Hall of Fame induction "remembering his extraordinary accomplishments in the racing area that were a direct result of his skill, dedication and commitment." "We are just so thrilled and excited. He has received a lot of rewards but this is the ultimate," said his widow, Lynn, commenting on her husband's election to the NASCAR Hall of Fame. "I know he is looking down and smiling ear to ear." Evans, one of six brothers and sisters, left his family's Westernville, N.Y., home at age 16 to work as a gas-station mechanic. In 1964, Evans began racing hobby stocks at Utica-Rome Speedway. Evans' first NASCAR championship came in 1973 -- after a number of seasons winning race after race regardless of sanctioning body. The title snapped a two-year reign by fellow Rome resident Jerry Cook, who won four more championships before Evans reclaimed a crown in 1978 that he relinquished only after his passing. The Evans-Cook rivalry was legendary -- although they weren't the only prominent figures in NASCAR modified racing, which included Maynard Troyer, Ron Bouchard, Bugs Stevens, George Kent, Tom Baldwin Sr. and future Cup star Geoffrey Bodine. But they lived in the same town and each had a separate set of fans. Evans and Cook got along fine; the fans, however, were a different story. And they won every NASCAR modified championship between 1971 and '85. The two also had distinctly different personalities. "The only thing we had in common was racing and there were times we didn't even talk to each other," said Cook, who became a NASCAR official following a racing career that ended in 1982 with nearly 350 victories. Cook currently is NASCAR's competition administrator. "But we put on a show with it. "He didn't win everything. I beat him and other drivers beat him so it wasn't like he won every single thing. But he did real well at it, that's for sure." Evans won regularly and won with style and grace. He also was a promoter's dream, his presence putting hundreds of additional folks in the grandstands. "He was a hard-core guy, racing to put food on the table," said John Bisci, a high-school student who watched Evans race at Lancaster Speedway in New York and became the track's program editor in 1976. Bisci is public-relations manager at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. "You could talk to him any time. After the races he would give you an autograph and never said, 'I'm too busy kid; come back later.' "No matter how many times he won, nobody booed. He never disparaged the other drivers and told the fans, 'I'm glad you were cheering for me.' He was a 'party guy' but when it came time to race he was all business." Cup owner Tommy Baldwin Jr., whose father competed against Evans, brought his No. 36 car to a recent event with an Evans retro paint scheme. "Richie was someone we all looked up to and when he came to town we knew we had to beat him to win," Baldwin said. "He made us work harder and I think that prepared a lot of us for the Sprint Cup level." The color orange may not have made Evans' cars go any faster -- but it probably gave him a psychological edge in an era when few race cars were brightly painted. "He had a fast orange car in a sea of stock Detroit colors. There was no mistaking him for anyone else," Bisci said. "You'd see him in the rear-view mirror and you knew it was him that was coming." Richie Evans: Career highlights • The recognized king of modified racing, Evans won nine NASCAR modified titles in a 13-year span, including eight in a row from 1978-85. • Evans' career accomplishments included multiple track championships across the Northeast and hundreds of victories -- including a 37-win season during a stretch of 60 Modified races in 1979. • In the first year of the current NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour format in 1985, Evans won 12 races, including wins in four of five races at Thompson, Conn. • Evans ranked No. 1 in the 2003 voting of the NASCAR All-Time Modified Top 10 Drivers, and he was named one of NASCAR's 50 Greatest Drivers in 1998.
