Is this the same Hillman ? Sounds like the Gratefull Dead

Yes.

Hillmans Desert Rose Band made a lot of good music.Quite a few country hits.
When Dolly Parton wanted to record Turn Turn Turn,she called in Mcguinn to record it with her.

You just can't mistake who is playing that jangly guitar riff!

Bog master....we’re you one of them long haired hippie type ...with a Flower power VW Bus ...in yah youth ?

Ne4ssy,LOL ask Rally Hess--he calls me longhair. As far as the length--look at the Trapper and Predatormcover,Trapline 1999-2000 nd The Trapper and Predator Caller cover-October 2000.Also an FTa cover in the early 2,000. Plus there ar 20 or 30 articles I wrote for TPC between 2000 and 2010--usually some photos of me in them.
And if you google my name you may see some photos of me doing demos at conventions.
Never had a VW--bicycle was my first trapping vehicle--followed by a 64 chev,a 66 chev a 69 impala a 74 novs a tt chev scotsdale an assortment of trucks--but never a vw.
Now my hair is thinning,but like many of my friends and fellow trappers---I don't need a hat to hide a bald head.
HIPPIES AVOIDED MONEY. Trapping has helped me do the same--but I keep on trying.

Nice Bogmastah…..I’ll have tah dive into that

I read this thread yesterday, Sunday. That evening one of the cable channels plays ed Sullivan reruns and the birds were on singing Turn Turn Turn.

The Byrds had two #1 singles in 1965.Mr.Tamborine Man and Turn Turn Turn. And to think,that was57 years ago.
Roger played both Saturday night and they still sound Great.
