Love it!!! We do this song in my bluegrass band and it's always a hit!

The Ramblin' Jack Elliott's version is a good tune too

Great version with 'ol Tex (Smoke, Smoke, that.........) singing it

Good !
Mais je prefere la version de Rose Maddox and his bros.
-
AND, Yes, Paul Westmoreland DID write this song!

This guy was the absolute King of Western Swing even before Bob Wills. He was even on the verge of becoming a major movie star. Then, he was convicted of brutally murdering his wife. He died of a heart attack in prison. Spade first recorded this song in the fall of 1945. Patti Page had a hit with it six years later in 1951. This was after her tremendous success in 1950 with Pee Wee King's "Tennessee Waltz," which is still one of the biggest selling records of all time.

"DETOUR" is written by Paul Westmoreland.
Elton Britt also had a great version of it back in 1946.

Ah it's written by Hank Thompson.

I like Western Swing music - a nice, steady beat with lots of violins, acoustic and lap steel guitars. The two/three-part harmonies on this record are superb, which makes me think that there is something unique about the timbre of the American voice.
