A Gordon Lightfoot song that was a pop hit for Peter Paul & Mary

Waylon gives it some honky tonk edge

Panther Hall was a legendary venue in Fort Worth. I didn't know they had a TV show.

Remake of a T. Texas Tyler country hit from 1948 (which was based on an old church recitation).

This went to #7 on the pop chart in 1959.

c. 1964 (may have been recorded earlier)

Unless my ears deceive me that's a banjo in the 1st instrumental break. Seldom hear them on rocky tonk records

quote:

Dixie Records was mainly a custom [vanity] label Which means that people send in a tape to press some records for private use. This is one of the reasons why it is so hard to find records on this label. The music where often recorded in a living room or a garage!

Of most records only 100-500 coopies where pressed, depending on how many people the owner knew that was intrested in raceiving a copy. Its almost impossible to find original records from this label

Wanda Jackson was on the bill.

I wonder if E got a hold of her? I've heard she was a freak.

Supposedly they "dated" - but w/Elvis that could mean anything, at least in those days, from Take Her Home To Mother types to Natalie Wood ("I'm the best frick in Hollywood")

Floyd Arthurs - Waitress (1959)

“Starday Custom 790 Jul 59. Very primitive private Hillbilly Bop from Oklahoma. Floyd is not a very good singer but for some reason i really like this song! Its 100% Hillbilly even if it was recorded in 1959 and sounds like at least 5 years earlier. The traditional country sound was almost gone at this time and thats what make this record interesting.”
