I was 6 years old when Jimmie died. I still have most of the Blue Yodel records. Great memories.

one sir to another, why thank you sir! I'm from New England area of the USA, my dad had a successful local country band from the 60s-90s, I joined him in the early 90s, love most all country music before 1970, after that time it slowly went down hill, and went into a tail spin by the late 1980s. no comparison now. but thats fine, we got all the classics like jimmy and hank, and thats fine with me.....

I love Hank Snow, he was very good. I listened to his music when I was a little girl. He is the only singer who could sing [ I've been everywhere] best.

Hank Snow,Jimmie Rodgers,Hank Williams and Marty Robbins were

singers.what a shame.old times were better.

Hank Snow was REAL. He hired out on commercial fishing boats as a teenager
and a guy taught him to play guitar. He was Canadian but we Americans love
him as one of our own, right up to that awful toupee Hank wore in his later years!
Amazing. I love Hank Snow, and this is the first time I've seen him interviewed. If you listen to Hank's very early recordings, back when it was just him solo with his guitar, his style was incredibly close to Jimmie Rodgers. Both are country music legends, to which today's current artists cannot even compare.
