I WALK ALONE by EDDY ARNOLD

[teden20]

I am Detroit. I am a punk. I am rapper. But I sure like Eddy Anold.

[irphil47]

I used to walk alone, then I took an arrow to the knee

[HowardWiggins3]

Unmissable sound of Little Roy Wiggins on the the steel guitar.

[MyShishaking]

whats that shit?!

[candw87]

@MyShishaking If you can't write a respectable comment -keep your face shut

[HowardWiggins3]

Unmistakable Little Roy Wiggins on the Steel Guitar

[CowboyOld]

Thanks for the song. This is on of my favorite Eddy Arnold recordings. Reminds me of WWII when so many "walked alone" waiting for the return of their loved one. Some of them, like my brother, didn't return. I think of him and his girl friend when I hear this song. I hope she has had a good life.

It would be nice if we had some artist with talent like this today. Artist of this generation sure new how to reach the people. RIP Eddy Armold. Gone but not forgotten.

AvidOldiesCollector,

They are not the same song. I Walk Alone/Did You See My Daddy Over There was recorded in 1945. I believe it was his 3rd or 4th record release that year.

You used to be able to get that information on LP Discography but they have changed their format and no longer list single record releases. So I can't tell you the record number. However you can now get past issues of Billboard online.

Look up record reviews from around October 1945.

[AvidOldiesCollector]

@glipzik

Thanks a lot for that information. Much appreciated.

[zaaritha]

He was great!

[CowboyOld]

This song reminds me of the war years-1942-1945. Eddy Arnold made some great records back in the 40s with Little Roy Wiggins playing the stright ahead country music guitar.

[Thomas05091942]

My mom's favorite country singer! :)

[vespertinne]

Back when people had manners... and men were gentlemen. :-) Before my time, but I love this music.

[capricastle]

There is a much better version of this beautiful song on "The Eddy Arnold Show" that was on the radio in the late 1949's. I would post it here if I only knew how to do that. Clarence

[doylesdolly]

I think Marty Robbins does a better job, but that is only my opinion. Everyone has there own favourite.

[franklindavid]

Great country music! it's timeless.

[somncountry]

[54spiritedwill54]

This is true love by the great eddie arnold.

[kudlow39]

great job alan for finding and posting this one....eddy will always live with devoters like you and me........

[AvidOldiesCollector]

In 1955 Eddy recorded a song titled I Walked Alone Last Night on RCA Victor 6290 (# 6 Country) with The Richest Man In The World (# 10 Country) on the flipside, I'm assuming this is, in fact, the same song now shown as I Walk Alone, and covered in 1968 by Marty Robbins (# 1 Country/# 65 Pop). Can anyone confirm this?

[brisansam66]

one of the many best voices of county music.rip..

[PhilFeedback]

Rest in Peace Eddy.

You will be missed!!!!

[bryyang]

Then why comment...." theytookmythumbs"....? if youre gonna be miserable....stay onm the prozac sites! God Bless Eddy!

[jannbinge]

pure soul and country

[norsegod666]

One of God's Pleasures for the human race! Eddy!

[MerrittStDiner]

Alan, we all love free speech, but sometimes there is a time for censorship. A couple of the comments could be removed without any real harm done to our free society.

[AlanPaladin]

I totally agree. I did not know about a few morons talking smack about someone I have always loved & admired. Rest In Peace Eddy, you will not be forgotten.

[dreamcore]

@MerrittStDiner It's not censorship if it's not because of government or fear of government. It's editing.

[Antiks72]

@MerrittStDiner Free society my ass. 

[ELVISFREE1977]

WHAT A VOICE!! There is no singing thru the nose with this guy!! Country may have never made it past the Rock and Rollers if it was'nt for Eddy bringing in that ( Nashville Sound ) Elvis was a big fan of Eddy..Farewell my friend glad to have met you!!

[DreamCather147]

Class all the way....

[geebilly]

God Bless and Keep Eddy Arnold

[susique333]

Im 51 and I grew up singing to these songs when I was a child...man they sure could sing back in those days!

[fastdrive55]

Good bye Eddie...

[grannysfave1]

I cna't believe how crass some posters are.

Eddy was one classy country singer. He was much better than the current crop in Nashville.

[arntigreat]

I SO AGREE

[BeanieMBJ]

RIP Eddy...

[maisonneuve]

i love eddy!

[broncose1]

This sounds like true love by the great eddie arnold.
