Thanks Luckenbach Texas 7499 for all these Lefty oldies, remembering when i first heard "Mom and Dad" when i was in Coast Guard Boot Camp 1963 thinkin about my Mom and Dad, please keep all those Old Country songs playin
Lefty Frizzell had as many songs as Hank Williams in the early 1950's.
Hank Williams, Ernest Tubb, Roy Acuff, Lefty Frizzell, and few others is the country music we'll never get back. I know I'm from today's generation but my soul is old and I must say, in this day and age Jake Penrod is probably the only one who sings the songs of the legends, I believe he's sung a couple songs by the Father of Country Music Jimmie Rodgers.
I sang this song to my wife on our honeymoon , can never forget this one .he had a voice like no other, what a shame he had to leave us. I'll always remember Lefty frizzell.
I was stationed at Barksdale Air Force, Base in Bossier City, La; and either '51 or '52, Lefty put on a show for the servicemen that a hanger was the only building large enough to accommodate all the people. I believe it was because of the Korean war. As I remember, there was no charge.
once again I have to ask ,why do we have to loose all these wonderful singers in their prime ,I,certainty feel robbed ,lucky we have people devoted to preserving their memories in music ,thanks,
Piano sounds like Floyd Cramer, I believe it is? This kinds of country has disappeared.Oh what a sound this man had... his voice was the real deal. Oh the memories that song brings back
