I’m practicing one of the most difficult to get perfect old ballads every hillbilly lead singer must know.

I really like Marty Robbins and his "Gunfighter Ballads and Trail Songs".
Now playing Television - Marquee Moon (1977)
Listening now to one of the Grande Dame's beautiful songs (here, together with the Dark Prince from Australia)...
This morning I’m listening to prison songs.
I think when those old prison songs played by the hour on KWTO and the Grand Ole Opry and were on every jukebox, there was less crime and uncivil behavior in this old sin cussed world, full of woe.

Check out Johnny Cash singing Gentle On My Mind off the Unearthed Album. I bet you’ll love it!

Found this cover of Sam Cookes "Bring it on home to me" by playing for change.

Reminds me of my old man, he'd sit out in his little cabin at the end of the garden most evenings, he'd play all sorts of ramdom old stuff and Marty robbins was one of his favourites.
I'll still occasionally listen to "el paso" or "big iron". Love that style of story telling in music!
Now listening (did it all through this evening) to the divine Umm Kulthum (1904 – 1975)...
