Nevada Bob Update and a Link to Some Cowboy Jokes

Another happy Nevada Bob fan.
"I lost my wife's copy of Nevada Bob's audiobook," Jack said, adding, "I'll probably never hear the end of it."

It's fun to have fans. And Nevada Bob seems to be gathering them. Tall and lean, the modest octogenarian loves to engage with people. Sometimes he's just looking for an opening to sing one of his songs like Bad Movie Blues ("Sometimes life is like a bad movie") and other times he may fall back to one of his favorite covers like House of the Rising Sun.

This young man on the right side of this page enjoyed meeting Bob. 

NEXT WEEK Nevada Bob is returning to Nashville to record a new album. If you happen to be there and see a tall, lanky guy in a cowboy hat, ask him to sing you a song or tell you a story. His book 50 Years with the Wrong Woman is full of good stories. As for songs, there are a few of those included in the audiobook version of his memoirs, which will be going live any day now on Amazon.

Here are a couple more images from Nevada Bob's latest visit to New Orleans with photographer Gary Firstenberg.

Earlier this summer Nevada Bob Gordon recorded his memoir 50 Years with the Wrong Woman at Wild Horse Studio in Stillwater. While there, Bayard Godsave of the Stillwater Gazette dropped in to meet Bob and do a story.  The article posted online yesterday and it's a really fun read.  Godsave successfully captured the Nevada Bob's spirit, and also uncovered some facts that even I didn't know about the rancher, singer/songwriter and author. Here's the beginning of the article with a link to the rest. I especially like the non-clickbait nature of the article title. Just the facts. All good.

Maria described him as a true American hero. " Bob is part of the culture we present here in the store. Hard working, successful, positive people....  He's like an All-American Cowboy... He's an amazing person. It's commendable when you are 83 and still going,"  Vazquez said. Maria and Miguel Vazquez opened the store in 2001. "It was time to create a store dedicated to Cuban culture," she said. Thus was born Sentir Cubano. Maria shared some of her own story.

But when we became older we discovered afresh how rich our culture is. We&
