[bell677]

we miss you johnny wish you was still around to show these youngsters know what true country is and always will be long love johnny and his great music

[oldermusiclover]

wish our 45 of this song had survived. MY Dad and I both LOVED HIS MUSIC>

Unfornatually most of my fav singers died when i was in grade school

[RockinEd]

Johnny asked Elvis if he could use Bill Black cuz he wanted that same sound on his records--Johnny was a true rocker

[pimm4444]

hello

[oldermusiclover]

THANKSSO MUCH!! This is my first Johnny

song i ever heard. we had the 45, but it

dissapeered.

[MrGregory404]

he plays the best music back in the 50

[kennyrocksable]

Great horton classic. Love 2 see if you got some of his early work on mercury like say, 4 instance-'tennessee jive'?

[mostlyrightous]

A powerful performance. Well done by top notch musicians, and Jonny Hortons inspired vocals are how its done. I can Imagine a lot of artists playing this song, but I doubt any could do it any better. Johnnys pretty much the gold standard for this tune.

[oldermusiclover]

do you know about his background singers ect. Wish istill had a record player

that did 78's. still have some

[bruiser]

Grady Martin on guitar, and I think Bill Black on bass.

RIP to all.

[oldermusiclover]

@bruiser i knew Bill played for Elvis for

awhile, didn't know about Johnny. I saw

an old Martin guitar on Antiques Roadshow

that was worth $35,000 now

[bruiser]

I didn't mean to imply that Bill played in Johnny's back up band. Only that he and Grady were the studio guys heard on the recording. My guess is Bill was looking to pick up a little extra money.

[francois004]

i like his music since i was a few years old back in 89

[claysjavelin1]

GREAT  5 STARS

[JTerrible63]

Thanks for awaking people like me b.1963 who grew up on Zeppelin, Who, etc., and never knew where it came from:

it's times credit be given, and also to all the Fred McDowells who WERE NOT discovered..

go johnny!!!!

R.I.P man i hope the drunk fucker who t-boned your car burnes in hell while you rock on in heaven

[jimmccoy1964]

Thanks for uploading these. I was turned on to Johnny Horton by my dad at age 10 in 1974. I'm a guitar player because of his music.

Never gets his due from the Nashville establishment because he was loyal to the Louisiana Hayride and not the Grand ole Opry. Some didn't like that he married Hank Williams' widow a year after Hank died.

In my mind he was one of the greats. The Grady Martin guitar sound, as well as Luther Perkins was the signature or this era of country.

Mmmm..mighty nice.

[mcdermott65]

The best ones seem to always die young.

[Axlegun]

Just put the Godamned song on and play it,nevermind showboating with the record just play it YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHH JOHNNY HORTON....

[Sionadi]

squeak*

[Sionadi]

i love the sqeak in his voice, thats what makes it very unique.

[mcgoodle]

Johnny Horton's voice was amazing. I can sing a little bit, but belting out a song with this kind of high pitched tenor is impossible for me. It really is sad that he died so young.

[whispperson]

One of the Greatest Singer/Songwriter's of all time.

[Rapper4JC]

Does any one have "Im all grown up"?

[barrygio1]

Another Great Johnny Horton Song.

[LynchburgSourMash]

Johnny Horton was a Rockabilly cat..............

[Hardburly]

Johnn Horton was the greatest

[thunderbird1958]

Great tune. I like Johnny's original and the George Jones' version.

Thanks for adding.

[xgavj6]

Johnny Horton simply superb!!!

[renoguard2]

This song ROCKS. He had another song with the same riffs I think it was called "Baby Wildcat". Oh, By the way, About the Needle thing. It would be best to switch needles to the 78 side when playing 78s. Conventional nedles will play in 78s, but they will shorten the life of the records. And hey, These records aren't getting any younger or abundant!

[rickjolley]

Audiophiles used to use cactus needles in order to preserve the 78. You had to buy them by the hundred, change them every three or four records!

Rick Jolley

[Gredrik]

i love that song

[Falcons66]

Love the 78's. Ive been loadin' a few as well. I love johnny horton. hey....Does yours have a flip needle for going from 45 to 78, or do you use the same needle? Just curious. I switch back-n-forth, but see some players that have both speeds and the same needle. Seems like a bad idea.

[LynchburgSourMash]

same needle manage all speeds

[radiogram56]

It is not good. You need a wide needle for 78s.

[jferalic]

great song!!!!
