Gosh this is so pretty. Me and my family went to the Grand Ole Opry held in the Ryman, a couple of weeks ago and Jean was there, and she yoddled I was so amazed at this woman. I'm only 17 but I absolutley love stuff like this. I wish singers had this much talent these days.
I'm actually thinking about becoming a country singer, I'm not sure where to start though, I have the voice and I'm ready I just don't know what people will think because I want to sing Classic Country.
Go with what your heart says to do..Classic Country will always be there, and things do have a habit of coming back around..Personally, I can't really get into the modern Country Sound..Sounds like bad bar band rock..Am not knocking that, just that country to me should sound like COUNTRY..Plain and simple..Good luck..
Old fashioned?? Not at all, ladies like Jean Shepard knew how to sing country sounding songs, and that sound is still in demand enough that she keeps pretty busy belting out songs to this day. I'd sure like to go to a show where she was the main treat to listen to. Bruce
dyer - aren't you getting Jean Shepherd confused with "Miss Audrey" Williams who is buried next to Hank Sr.? Audrey had a daughter before she married Hank Sr. and then their son, Hank, Jr. was born not too long before his daddy died. Jean is still living I presume and I think she remarried after her hubby Hawkshaw was killed. I like Jean's singing, especially "A Dear John Letter" with Ferlin Huskey. Thanks for posting this jane. - Paula
Jean Shepard is Hawkshaw Hawkin's second wife. His first wife lives in West Virginia, I know her, (her name is Reva). Reva calls Jean Shepard, 'Ol Shep'.
And a fine & WONDERFULLY TALENTED LADY SHE IS, WAS & EVER SHALL BE!
My husband & I met her & a member of her band back in '78 coming across interstate 90 from N. Dakota. We couldn't have been treated more wonderfully. I grew up listening to her music. She will always have a place in my heart. She is one of the finest ladies of country music.
How many of you young people know Jean Shepard is Hank Williams Jr,s Mother. She was the first wife of Hank Sr. They are buried side by side in Montgomery, Ala
Let me correct myself. Audrey Mae Sheppard was Hank Jr,s Mother. I have been to there grave it is beautiful. They are both buried in Montgomery Ala. along with Hank sr. mother. Sorry for the mistake.
um actuall y jean shepard is still alive. she is my grandmother... and she has only had three children.hawkshaw jr.(my uncle),don hawkins(my dad),and cory hawkins(my uncle)
where does your info come from? mine comes from the background and the tag in more info.i don't know anything about this syndicated tv show.maybe they shot scenes at both locations. this is the set of louisiana hayride,not ryman auditorium set of opry.
thats not opry!tyis was filmed at louisiana hayride from shreveport la. a lot of great stars played there stars such as hank williams, marty robbins, jim reeves to name a few, carl smith posting is also hayride, not opry
a lot of people aren't aware the opry is and always was a radio show, not a tv show,although they did televise for awhile. the hayride was a tv show. i think it was on the radio also. i'm going to check it out on wikipedia.
what a wonderful woman :)

She's one of the best female traditional-country singers.
She is one of those who makes me wonder why she wasn't inducted in The Country Music Hall of Fame, years ago!
