Hawkshaw Hawkins - Sunny Side Of The Mountain

[yestartinsa]

First heard Hawkshaw on an old Grand Ole Opry LP way back in early sixties when I was a child and have remained a fan ever since.

Living in the UK I bought a box of country 78's in 1962 including this version. Have not heard it for 30 years. I loved it then, love it more now.Priceless!!!! Who was the guitar picker?

LOVE THE PRETTY PICKING THEY DID ON THE OLD SONGS

[micmoable]

I like the old country like this---no longhaired hippies jammin out their rock fantasies in the new "Country"----traditional country is best!

Great music..., thank you for preserving it for us...

I used to listen to him on his LIVE 15 minute raido show on WWVA out of wheeling W.V. after school every afternoon. Those were the days.

Great song by HAWKSHAW HAWKINS. He sure did have a nice voice. Its a shame he had to leave us so soon.

Someone please invent a time machine so I can see all these great country singers perform live!

[gangerollo]

Be rest assure as I'm working on it. It's just the damn mix of the fuel I can't get right...yet

[LarchSt]

@modela30sedan - You have that time machine in all of us that are still performing on stage. I ran across this song again here, got the words, and will have it in my show this Thursday, Friday, and Saturday... I'll play them 'till I die...

[jrdill1929]
