@Ranwolfe Yes, this Columbia feature is the only film of Rodgers. RCA rereleased Rodgers' recordings on 33 1/3 vinyl as early as the 1960's. All of Rodgers' recordings have been rereleased on RCA and other labels, and are still in print on CD. There are interesting recordings of Rodgers in conversation, on Victor recordings that he made with The Carter Family.

Is this the only flim of him? I remember when I bought my first album of him in 1973

@watsonvillian There will only be two seats. A front row seat, and the hot seat. Reservations must be made in advance.

Thank you, this has been added to our playlists here and on facebook...

One thing I love so much about Rodgers songs are that they are legit. He was a real rail worker.Jimmy's music has traveled thousands of miles with me on old roads and mountains and highways. I bet heaven has the greatest concert right now...Jimmy, Hank, Johnny, Waylon, and a ton more. I hope when my time comes many years from now I get a front row seat.

Hey Freight train riders. Enjoy the worst of the blues and the best of the news.

Could this have been the first "music video"? Damn, Jimmie Rodgers was quite the innovator, eh? Anybody that don't like Jimmie Rodgers should get themselves checked...cause something ain't right! CHEERS!

My Daddy was a life-long fan of his. There was a story that Jimmie was playing in or near Daddy's hometown and his sharecropper father couldn't afford the dime it would take for Daddy to see him. Daddy died before this video was uploaded. I wish so much he could have seen it. I will be posting a tribute to Jimmie Rodgers soon; my father sings several of his songs in the slide show.

Let's see - only one man has been inducted in the inaugural classes of both the Rock-n-Roll and Country music Hall of Fames. Who was that person again....?

This is such a cool film. Thanks for posting it. Is it available to purchase anywhere?

My dad fought in WW2, was part of the D-day invasion. He played Jimmie Rodgers songs to the troops everyday. I can still remember setting next to him as he played these songs. My dad dies on Christmas Eve 1973 and I miss him so much. I know him and Jimmie are playing together now entertaining the angels in heaven.

He sang three songs and he only got one lousy cup of coffee! He should have gotten a full breakfast out of that deal. :~)
