Great song from a gifted singer and songwriter.So few artists at this time wrote their own
material.He was great live as well.One of the most underestimated talents there has ever
been.So pleased that someone has posted this.

A good song and a great performer. I don't know of any other singer that put as much feeling and emotion into their performances as he did. Many thanks for posting.

This has always been one of my favorite recordings by Johnnie.

He was one of the most outstanding talents (probably THE best live performer) of the 1950s. Yet, today, he's almost forgotten. So sad. Thank God for You Tube !!
-
The other songs of Ray in the course of time somehow had worn out (at least for me) but not this one. Is it his best song?
-
thank you so much for posting this. so unusual for its time. so much more poignant than the studio version.

Fantastic stuff, thanks for posting! Does anyone know if there is Johnnie footage from '51,52,53,54 floating around? I can't believe there isn't more of him available commercially on DVD. I have the '58/'82 Dutch TV DVD and love it, but I need more!
