Case in point?

The Last thing On My Mind.



The Last Thing On My Mind-Tom Paxton - YouTube



Dolly Parton and Porter Wagoner - The Last Thing On My Mind - YouTube

The original for me though Porter and Dolly's is pretty neat as well.


I probably should of put up their actual recording since I guess they decided to alter the lyrics for this performance but thought this would be more interesting.


If you live in the US you can see Porter's show on RFD-TV on the weekends. I gonna guess up until now it's probably hasn't been seen since its original airing.

tim hardin - if i were a carpenter - YouTube

Kind of silly video but it's all I could find.


Pozo Seco Singers - If I Were A Carpenter - YouTube

So many versions of this song and this is one of the best. The scene go well this the song show I despise the cigarette but being tossed on the ground. Reguardless I'm glad somebody finally uploaded this version.

Don't know if I can compared the Pozo's version from Tim's but there version in better than Darin's.
