Dick Flood was a singer-songwriter in Nashville in the 60s. Besides landing a couple B-sides for Roy Orbison and Skeeter Davis, he never quite broke through. His own recordings have a haunting quality, with shadowy instrumentation and a voice that quivers with desperation. After many attempts at a music career, Flood concluded that “Nashville’s no place for a nobody”. He left it all behind and resettled in the Okefenokee Swamp in South Georgia, where he changed his name to Okefenokee Joe and became a naturalist devoted to a life of preservation and solitude. Dick/Joe spoke to Fez about music, his friendship with Patsy Cline, contracting Dengue fever in Vietnam, his mission as a wildlife educator, and the present day-- reflecting on his journey, no longer in Nashville or Okefenokee, physically unable to play music.If you use Spotify, you can listen to a selection of Dick Flood's music assembled by Platinum Ranch: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0Rs3RNCsZsvKhNutGxF5g2?si=ZKiI1AulQ_6MUQ5nZDiteQFor more info on Dick Flood and Okefenokee Joe, visit: www.okefenokeejoe.com
