Do you recognize it?<\/p>\n<p>Simpson sounds so much like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=NvlE14cM-zk\" target=\"_blank\">Waylon Jennings<\/a> and the other country singers I heard on the radio as a young girl, and I can&#8217;t help but feel a bit nostalgic when I hear his voice. He&#8217;s a young guy, at 36, and it&#8217;s amazing to me that he&#8217;s able to capture the sound of an earlier era so distinctly.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m taking today off to spend time with my family while they are off school and work, but I&#8217;ll be back later this week.
