Clifton and Duffey
I'm looking for "Mother Still Prays For You" by Bill Clifton and John Duffey. I heard it on the radio a few wks ago. Google taught me that it's on "Bill Clifton Meets the Country Gentlemen" which looks like a great project, but I can't find it, nor any collection that's got it. Anyone know where I can get it?
Thanks
Bob

Re: Clifton and Duffey
Bob, Did Google say what label that recording was on, if so maybe contacting them would help you....

Re: Clifton and Duffey
Another route you can take is by having Vinyl Revolution make a digital CD for you directly from the LP for $34.95. I did this with one of my favorite albums "A Lonesome Wail From the Hills" by Carl Story and His Rambling Mountaineers. Works great!

Re: Clifton and Duffey
Rather not pay $34.95. It's on the London(Japan) label.
I really would like to get the Clifton and Duffey version rather than the Dixie Mt Boys. Clifton and Duffey sounded fantastic. I assume the rest of the album is great.

Re: Clifton and Duffey
Well, I'm sure you can find an LP somewhere, but unless you have a turntable you'll have to transfer it to CD or cassette. Just trying to help.
But, I love Duffey's mandolin work too!

Re: Clifton and Duffey
Most turntables now come with a USB connector so you can concert vinyl to MP3 music files.
I have one and it's pretty easy to do, and it makes for some good quality audio files!

Re: Clifton and Duffey
I have the turntable and connections. I just need to find the LP.
I know the song, but Clifton & Duffey singing it is just superb.

Re: Clifton and Duffey
Your Mother Still Prays For You
The night was dark and stormy
The wind was howling wild
As an aged mother gazed upon
The portrait of her child
As she gazed on the baby's features
That once filled her heart with joy
He's now in this wild world roaming
That mother's long lost boy
Your mother still prays for you, Jack
Your mother still prays for you
In a home far over the ocean
Your mother still prays for you
At last there came a letter
It was deeply edged in black
From a comrade long forgotten
Who still remembered Jack
They have lain your dear old mother
In a grave so dark and cold
And she wants her boy who is roaming
To meet her on the streets of gold
His stony heart was broken
As he thought of his mother dear
And in spite of his comrades laughing
He could not keep back his tears
In spite of the great temptations
That once filled his heart with tears
So he started for Heaven that evening
As sweetly the people did sing
