Mel Waiters ~ Got My Whiskey You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton | |

There's an AM station where I live that plays stuff like this. This is like some family reunion in the country (or "the woods" as they call it) music. You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton | |

Or that's their way of calling it.
Usually when my parents play it, it's on some "get your freak on" type of shit. This is how they stay "hip". | |

A lot of the music they play at the reunions and parties is on Malaco, the "unknown out of the south" label.

Yes this is definitely a song that is played at all of those "BYOB" Mason parties. I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince. | |

I love me some Mel Waiters. "Got My Whiskey" is a classic. This is another favorite from him. Roger Troutman is on the remix.
