Hank Snow - Face on the Barroom Floor

Somewhere between the greed for money and sound judgment, the legends of country music were tossed aside for the outlandish sound they call country music today.

"The Face upon the Barroom Floor", aka "The Face on the Floor" and "The Face on the Barroom Floor", is a poem written by Hugh Antoine d'Arcy in 1887 and first published in the New York Dispatch.

According to d'Arcy, the poem was inspired by an actual happening at Joe Smith's saloon at Fourth Avenue and 14th Street in Manhattan.

Hank Snow was the first country Singer I heard as a small child. I fell in love with Country Music the first time I heard him. My favorite Hank Snow album was "Tales Of The Yukon" doing the poems of my favorite poet Robert W. Service. This is one of the most beautiful albums I have heard in my 65 years.

Tales from the yukon is one of the most under rated albums ever i think, Hank Snow sang every song on that album with a feeling that has yet to be matched.

i agree with what you said about country music. I don't even listen to it anymore. I have my cds and albums of Tammy and Gene and Loretta that I listen to but I hate the country music now
