User / Patricia Colleen / A Good Year for the Roses - 1971
Patricia Meyer / 9,039 items
a film negative off one of the first rolls that my father shot with his new Canon camera.
My Dad loved country music, he sang and played guitar professionally and I remember he was not partial to George Jones, didn't like his voice and thought his songs were "cornball" , so when I bought him an Alan Jackson CD where he sang various oldies, and one of them was a duet with George Jones singing one of George's old hits, "A Good Year for the Roses", he begrudgingly admitted it "wasn't as bad as he recalled" :)

this song was actually written by Jerry Chesnut, my Dad said that was where the money was, writing the songs, which is true only if you have a good contract. Many artists have songwriters that they pay exorbitant amounts of money to write songs for them that they then say that they wrote :)

My husband and I often say when we see beautiful roses:

"Its a good year for the roses, many blooms still linger there " :)
