He has such a deep voice. It makes all of his songs stand out. The Ballad of Davy Crockett being my favorite.
-
This song was written in 1932.

outstanding! This 65 year old baby boomer was a terror in those days of Ernie Ford and years following, but his music calms the savage beast and reminds us to be considerate of others, though Otis Redding just blows me away when he sings this.

@awgb70 amazing singer, amazing voice!

@ajerseykid if he had soul, what would you consider otis redding to have?



Those were the days when life was simple and our parents did the worrying for us. Hearing Old Ernie brings a bit of peace to this old soul. It's a peace that does not occur when I listen to the rock and roll I was brought up on. I found this type of music helpful in dealing with an addiction problem that I had. The number one song for beating that habit was "Wake the Town and the Tell the People"...The powere of music. Peace to all.
