I'd be rich if I had a dollar everytime I've been in the same vicinity as Ramblin' Jack. Never missed an opportunity to hear his stories and songs. Been a big fan since my 20s. Hope he stays with us above ground many more years. (Come to think of it-- I am rich for meeting Ramblin' Jack). Bob

He's still sharp as a tack..He got his nickname right!! Great story teller!!

I first met Jack in Cleveland back in 1975. His Landrover leaked 6 qts of oil all over Euclid Ave at 2 AM. I watched him perform at Bobby McGhee's on playhouse square. I drove him all over Cleveland looking for an all-night gas station to purchase a case of motor oil. He told me stories and finally we found a case of oil and I poured it into his engine, slammed the hood shut and sent him on his way. His window was rolled down and he was STILL telling me his stories. That's when I figured out why they call him Ramblin Jack! I have seen him 6 times since then here in Texas and we've become fast friends. Today he's 87 and still going strong! I guess I learned to "ramble on as well!

I absolutely adore listening as Ramblin" Jack spins a tale!😍

What an honor

History talkin'

I love Ramblin' Jack. He once played all night long in nothing but a cowboy hat and a kerchief. Circa 1974-5 ish

thanks! is there a way to see more of this?

Richard Harding is smiling at that hat style..

Captain Jack. He's Great.

Just think of all the people who thought, this Jewish boy from Brooklyn was a complete nutcase for being obsessed with the Rodeo. Every once in a while, a person is able to ignore society’s norms, the stars align and magic happens. What a life Rambling Jack has lived.
