The Great Ernest Tubb did tributes to both the great Jimmie Rodgers and the great Hank Williams, Sr., what a great man...Ernest was influenced by Jimmie and influenced Hank...so there is a connection between the 3 kings...

WOW!! Earnest Tubb had it down pat!! Didn't He?? That was flat good ( just like his PAL Jimmie at the time) Earnest didn't sound like Jimmie after he had his tonsils taken out...That's what changed his voice and it became so deep and bass'y (For those of you who didn't know!!....Ray Rogers...

Must have been one of ET's earlier recordings. It was only after his throat surgery that he had trouble carrying a tune, but his fans loved him anyway! Sing on, ET!!!!

I thougt the guitar sounded familliar from Ben Dewberry's Final Run. Thx for posting the song. I also agree, he does sound like Jimmie in some spots.

And greetings back, from America. You probably appreciate the Blue Yodeler more than many of his own countrymen, More's the pity.
