Here's to cowboys, and here's to gold…"John often used to tell the story behind Me And My Uncle. Years ago he began receiving publishing royalties from a song on a Judy Collins record with which he was unfamiliar. It was titled Me And My Uncle. He called Judy to let her know of the mistake because he hadn't written any such song. She laughed and told him that about a year before, in Arizona after one of her concerts, they had a tequila night back at the hotel with Stephen Stills, Neil Young and a few others. They were running a blank cassette and John proceeded to write Me And My Uncle on the spot. The next day, John woke up to the tequila sunrise with no recollection of the songwriting incident. Judy kept the cassette from that evening and then, without informing John, recorded the song for her own record. Over the years the song was recorded by several people, and eventually became a standard of the Grateful Dead. John used to joke that, little by little, with each royalty check, the memory of writing the song would come back to him."Freight Train - Elizabeth Cotten Fallin' Rain - Neville BrothersBurnin' Streets - Joe Strummer & The MescalerosGoing Places - Paul WellerPure Smokey - George HarrisonThe Nearest Faraway Place - The Beach BoysThere's A Honky Tonk Angel (Who Will Take Me Back In) - Elvis PresleyA Song For You - Gram ParsonsWhen I Hold You In My Arms - Neil YoungBullet Proof Soul - SadeRanglin’s Diamond - Ernest RanglinMe And My Uncle - John PhillipsTombstone Shadow - Creedence Clearwater RevivalBaby Ride Easy - Johnny Cash & June Carter CashFriendly Gates - Carlene RouthSomeone Like You - The KnittersWhen I Stop Loving You - Felice & Boudleaux BryantThis Girl's in Love with You - Aretha FranklinClose To You - Phyllis DillonLove Letters - Elvis Presley
