Billy got the "Crash" nickname from his football playing days in school in North Carolina. Here he is with a crossover hit. Tony Orlando also had a hit record of this tune.

  • you have to remember this is a cover version geared to a country music audience. Tony Orlando was to a pop/rock audience. Two different genres of music.

  • CandyKane: U are kidding right? Conway was a chick magnet and so was Porter. I remember those days even though I was a youngster. I remember hearing Mama talk and other ladies in the family when we used to get together on the weekends and listen to country music and laugh. I am not judge of men but they used to get the ladies easily.

  • you wouldnt have his version of cracklin rosie would you?

  • @Donkey9900 Since you noticed Tommy, I was wondering if you could tell who was playing steel? They sure didn't care about filming the band. I was about to think it was a studio recording, until finally seeing the fiddle players & bass player.

  • @CenaTv2 For the most part I agree, however some (not all) of the country music artists had a different idea and change was in the air (in the early 70's) & by the late 70's country had a new flavor, one I couldn't swallow. To me there is no greater country music than that of the 60's!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Would love to hear more about the Great Crash. Still listen to him. I remember the local disk jockeys couldn't get enough of him, and neither could his fans. True entertainer, and so very handsome.

    Thanks for your response from my post!

  • The late great Nashville fiddler Tommy Jackson on the fiddle. (red coat)

  • @graylyns Had the pleasure of playing Crash's records and interviewing him a couple of times. He was a true gentleman and his upbeat songs helped balance the drinking and cheating songs that prevailed on country radio those days.

    Crash was and is an asset to country radio.

  • i LOVE THIS SONG..

  • @bbeard396 Really?
