  • i want this played @ my funeral !!! thank you for sharing !!

  • Any chance of the flip side, desperate to hear it but is unavailable 'cept for on this 45, thanks!

  • Killer Rockabilly from 1959. This record is very rare i only got a repro.

  • Your collection is kick-ass but I hate seeing you playing rare records on that cheap-o phonograph!

  • Hi from France

    Why all the collectors put always the A side of a record .

    We find 1 , 2 ,3 , 4 times the same song but never the B side

    AARON 101

    A side .Hank Swatley - Oakie Boogie

    B side : I can’t help it

    I’m sure that many, really many persons will be very happy if you do that.

    But perhaps you have not the record ?

    MERCI CORDIALEMENT DANIEL

  • THIS IS FANTASTIC! I had never heard this before. You post the best music on youtube. Really.

    //L.S.M.

  • Where on earth do you find these recordings...I wouldn't know where to begin.

  • i have found rare gems like this at estate sales, or garage sales, places where people will sell albums for cheap and have no interest in them or any idea of their value

  • Good ole stuff: the real thing indeed!

    Thanks for sharing such a gem and Happy New Year!!!

  • That'll flat git it!!

    Thanks and Merry Christmas LynchburgSourMash

  • hey ive been looking a long time for this song!! that aaron 101 brings about 500 big ones! but whats important is this song blows the crap of all thouse nauseating hillbilly/lawerence welk versions of this song ie ella mae morse et al thanks

  • True words

  • a classic

  • houahoua super

  • you have some cool tunes cat

  • Driving rocker. The original Western Swing version of 'Oakie Boogie' is by Jack Guthrie and some footage exists of him doing it from around 1949. I've seen it in a Woody Guthrie documentary (Woody and Jack were cousins) but don't have it to put it up, I'm afraid. I've got it on a reissue Capital 45 from about 1960-something, I would guess, however, and might put that up in time. All that said, it's still Hank Swatley's version that kills me.

  • oh poop another one i sold .

  • Can you play the other side? I don't think I have ever heard it. What about the other record "Way's of a woman in love"? Do you have it?

  • Elvis Presley was Rumourded To have Recorded This while at Sun Records.

  • öj öj öj! se braaa!!

  • Thank you so much. that's one of the best things I've ever heard.

  • lovin that number, was one of the first tracks i remember Flash playin at the Crystal palace in St.Albans years ago.

  • Anyone know who was in the band? I would love to see if any of the band was still alive. Any information on my grandfather would be cool. I hope to post some videos from 2000-2004 as soon as I get my brother to mail them to me.

  • RIP- Hank Swatley- thank you for the music .... Oakie Boogie one of my all time favs..... xx

  • Hank Swatley is my grand father. He passed away about a year ago. I have tons of video of him singing for family friends. The sad part is I never realized hwo famous he was untill after he past and I googled him.

  • Hi Guys, yes i just listened to it however its a lot slower than the one i used to jive to, any idea how many versions there are as this one sounds a little too country for me ......... how are we doing on the other ones..... xxxxx

  • The person with the records is gonna move and is giving them to me to make some room, but apparently they won't be moving for a while and becuase I am expecting those, I have been holding off on buying records since those 45's are mostly 50's and some 60's. No telling what treasures are in there.

  • thanx jukebox, R.I.P Elvis sadly missed but never forgotten ...... '' Blue moon of Kentucky''

  • Yea, but they never mention any other artists. Johnny Burnette actually tought Elvis how to play in college and he was never given any credit for it... My fav. is "baby let's play house" which I'm gonna sing one of these days. I hope i do find "blue moon of kentucky"... If I do it will be the only one I have worth more than garage sale value.. Mine are all screwed up somehow, but who cares? I'm still tryin to preserve those timeless classics. =)

  • For some reason my copy of this sounds faster for the first few seconds. I really need an origional copy...

  • why am i being ignored.......

  • You aint bein ignored, sorry. I'll watch out for those -somebody will be giving me a box of over 200 45's from the 50's sometime soon so I should find something rockin' to put up along with a few a mine. =D

  • Hey jukebox if you find those 45's ill make it worth yr while........ xxxx

  • I found out that "Honkey Tonk Hardwood Floor" is by Johnny Jorton.

  • Johnny Horton yes ;-)

  • YEAH!!! i couldnt agree more with you Jukebox however i now seem to be reliving my youth all over again and would love to hear any of the ones i mentioned earlier another great one was ''ROCKIN DADDY'' but i forget the artist.... keep rockin jukebox xx

  • What about Marvin Rainwater ''Boo Hoo'' anyone?

  • Great music m8, thanks a lot. But one question: What are the Bananas for?

  • the bananas turns up the feeling when spinning Hank Mizell's Jungle Rock ;-)

  • Lynchburg, please reply to my earlier comment, regards sweetie xxxxxxx

  • LOL, have you got that 45? I'd like to hear that again. Released around 1972 wasn't it?

  • From what little info I could gather it was made in 1959 and re-released in the early 70's, but who knows? One of these days I'm gonna buy one of those lathes and start cutting my own records and not have to pay hundreds and hundreds for a simple little record.

  • Ive found out it was recorded in 1959 and released in 1976, but like you, not much else. There is a live version played in Germany on youtube, have you seen it? He looks terrified at the start.

  • Lol did u see the one where the dude gets hit in the face by the mic?

  • No, where is it?

  • Just type in "oakie boogie" It's one of the three.

  • One killer tune. Why wasn't this as popular as the rest? I actually have this one, but it's a cheesey repro...

  • Hey Lynchburg,Do you have a copy of ''Honkytonk Hardwood Floor and Big Green Car'' I forget who the artists were but they were floorfillers when i was ''Rockin'' Thank you for putting this on youtube you have really brought back so many wonderful memories of a fantastic period of my life and im reliving it all again...... xxxx

  • oooooooohhhhhh yes have not heard this since the early 80's at Bobby Sox club in London it lit the dance floor up and everyone went wild.......... thanks for the memories............

  • it's a real pleasure to refresh your memories madame!'''...just shake those bones n tap ur feets.......

  • Dunno where you unearth this amazing stuff from but just keep it coming!

  • aw shucks! :-}

  • Thanks! I appreciate it!

  • this record is dedicated to you Paul...

    thnx

  • very good record.

  • The portable turntable is very interesting. What is the brand?

  • It's a Crosley. The song itself sounds a lot like "move it on over" by Hank Williams

  • REAL MUSIC

  • yes ...Mr bobbuy...it is...

  • Sweet.
