There will come a day hopefully, when vintage country will make it's way back to every corner
of this country. What's in Nashville is discusting,and in "no way" does it resemble country music.
I've played traditinal country for over 40 years up here in the tri state area of Delaware,
Maryland, and Pennsylvania, and I wouldn't touch this phony "new wave alternate country", as they
call it in Nashville, with a hundred foot pole. I've worked on stage with such people as George
Jones, Gene Watson, Don Reno, Flatt and Scruggs, and many others. When George Strait did "murder
on music row", he was right on the money. Keep your organization going, and if there's any way
I can help, please contact me! Sincerely, Bob Cox, P.O.Box 200, Delaware City, De.

Please help - to find out how contact Susan H. Brant, maggdoodle@yahoo.or myself and

H1! I am currently looking for a sponsor to get the famous Texas Jim Robertson an induction
into the Nashville Country Music Hall of Fame. He encouraged the Country music legends as
follows: Chet Atkins, Roy Clark, Jimmy Dean, Eddie Arnold, and several others. Recently, I
acquired a signed photo of Texas Jim Robertson, AKA James Battle Robertson, inscribed to a
vaudeville star by the name of Jack Spoons. Texas Jim Robertson's influence was wide- spread
in the field of hillbilly, religious, patriotic, honky- tonk and Country Western music.
Wake up, keepers of Country Western music history, and give Texas Jim Robertson his proper
recognition as a giant in this field of endeavor. Dan Rightmer - Rightmerd51@SBCglobal.net

Dear fellow traditional country music fans, I need help identifying a short song that I
recently heard on Sirius's classic country station. I only know the gist of it.
The song tells the story of a man expressing his love for, and desire to marry, a woman.
He explains that he understands the foibles and follies of woman. He says that he has been hurt
before and that until she gets rid of him that he'll continue to love her.
I wish I could provide more information but this is all I've got.
The song had to be a pre-60's tune. I'd be very, very grateful for the song title. Thanks, Louis.

first 1 of 50 made. White on White, 4 BBL, Automatic. Original car. Original owner was
Elvis Presley, bought for one of his road crew". We are very interested in finding out if

I believe we have too long let other people determine what we want in all
aspects of our life, but nowhere is it anymore obvious than in Country Music! Where
is the country and why did we let them take it away from us? If by some chance you
hear a new song on the radio that actually sounds like country music you can bet
you probably won't hear it again. What can the public do to get the country back
in our music and let the commercial bullsh** they are putting out and calling it
country go to pop or wherever! I would love to hear music with feeling once again
and think that it is our right. But how do we get it back?

Rockabilly in it's truest form. Country "kicked up a notch". Don't listen to this in the car
because you just can't dance in there. Your gonna tell all your friends and become "Rockit
Heads" before you know it.
Bo Porter started playing guitar at age six and by age seven was touring throughout the
South with his father Reid Porter and his bluegrass band. In the 1950?s Bo's Dad Reid
Porter had a band called The Dixie Playboys. If it's musical heritage your looking for
Bo definitely came by it honest. In his teens, he was onstage with the Panhandle Opry
in Northwest Florida and by age 17, Bo was touring the country with his own country / rock band.
He has appeared on stages from Dolly Wood to Nashville's famed Bluebird Cafe', and his bands
have opened for country artists including Doug Stone, Mark Chestnut, Joe Diffie.
In October of 2004 Bo and friends started recording the self titled CD for Bo Porter
& The Dixie Rockits that released December 2005. It's been said that The Dixie Rockits
are a "Southern Fried Rockit Fueled Frenzy Guaranteed to Send you into Orbit" You can
decide that for yourself.
If you're wondering where the name Dixie Rockits came from here's the answer.
Because Bo's Dad had a band called the Dixie Playboys, Bo and Ricky decided (with Dad's
permission) to use the Dixie part and thought Rockets sounded good. The usual spelling of
Rockets didn't suit them though so it was decided that because their tendency to take an old
country song and "Rock It" up that they should become the Dixie Rockits, spelled accordingly.

of love. Let me know how you are doing. I was so terribly sad to read of Dr. Wolfe's going back to
God as we had not finished our interview we started at the Clardy Guest House in Murfreesboro, Tn
where I resided for nearly 7 years. Robert an Barbara Deaton are still treasured friends and we
stay in touch. Dr. Charles Wolfe said to me, after about 4 hours of interview taped by and
presided by Lucy Powell, "We've only just begun." He said he was fascinated by an artists inner
strength and how some cannot stop working toward their goals no matter what life hands to them. I
met Chas Wolfe the first time while working at Bill Monroe's Bluegrass and Country Hall of Fame and
Museum on Music valley Drive ... a great, brilliant and benevolent man. During this time I
met Earl and Louise Scruggs. I really enjoyed my meeting with them concerning the display of this
Legend. I am sorry to hear she also got her wings and is with Heaven's Angels watching over us I
think ... anyway, time does fly by and I am working with children and my "FlutterBear" song and story
and songs in the story by the forest friends: The Deer who sing and play Country Music, The Busy
Beaver Sunbeam Team who sing and play Gospel and Insprirational, the Rabbit Population who sing and
play Bluegrass music, the Foxes, Rhythm and Blues, and the Rockin Racoons, Old time Rock and Roll,
and The Bears, Mr. Brown Bear can dance to anything...the Nutcracker Sweethearts are Squirrels who
sing and play Classical music...Miss Butterfly sings and their little "FlutterBears"
... thelsoundtrack called "To The Bear With Love" aka "To Russia With Love, is the reason Loving
Others Via Entertainment, Inc. will be going to Russia to sing and perform at the University in
Zaolsky and to
perform and visit the Childrens Orphanages in the Tula Region ... about 74 miles from Moscow. Just
don't forget that I love you and appreciate you and always will. All three of us in one.

I have just found your Webb-site last night, and was enjoying it so much, that it was 3am
before I knew it. What a Great source of information that is refreshing to read, when today
money is First and Foremost. Where is the Standards today? It truly is a Sad time for
Real Country Music. I have been expecting, at any day, to hear that Elton John,
is appearing on the Grand Ol Opry. How far are we from this happening? I and several
friends, have subscribed to XM-Radio, so we can listen to Real Country Music. And to think,
that Country Radio Stations, hardly if ever, play any of George Jones today, due to the
fact, that He is Too Country!!! I no longer watch any of the Country Award shows,
as well as many of my friends. I am in my upper 50's, and remember attending several
Country Shows, when there were dress codes, and Great Performances of Great Songs.
What you heard on stage, is what you heard on the records or radio!!! You
Truly, got your money's worth. I would also like to Thank You, for holding fast,
to the beliefs, of what our Nation was built upon. In GOD WE TRUST...Far too many,
have forgotten this. Again, Thanks for all that you are doing. Sincerely, Bill Glass -

Michael, First, thanks for posting.
As long as clear channel controls the airwaves, traditional country won't be played.
But there is hope in satellite radio like XM radio. We like "Hank's Place".
And also internet radio.
While there is a return to more traditional country in the mainstream, be aware
that it may not be the country music of the past. But what I've been hearing is pretty good.
"Whiskey Lullaby" by Brad Paisley & Alison Krauss is a great traditional country song.
I hope that the "duet" songs make a comeback.
As for the grand ole opry, Pete Fisher needs to get with the program and put artist
like Ernie Ashworth & Stonewall Jackson back on the show.
As a songwriter of traditional country music, I ask you not to give up hope. While
not mainstream yet, it has never died. Besides, why let radio tell you what to listen to
or what to buy?
Oh, and if you don't know where to find new traditional country music, just go to

I believe that there is almost as many older and middle aged folks that listen to traditional
country as young ones that listen to this 'stuff' they call 'country', besides the younger ones
who enjoy traditional country as well. Why can't we all band togeather and put pressure on the
DJs to start playing the old stuff again? Also, put pressure on the Powers that be in Nashville.
Also to push young traditional artist's along the way. I know that they play what is selling at
the time. But I say, let's stand up and be heard. When they took all traditional music off the
airwaves we all at back and let them do it without a word. We all know there is strenth in numbers.
I have played in a country band for 14 Yrs. When they took traditional country off the airwaves
we disbanded. Lets put this 'new country', alias rock & roll on the back burnerand get on with
the traditional Grand ole' Oprymusic. This is certainly not taking any thing from all these
great younger musicans and performers. But have them find their own 'nich'. Thank you,

Hi! It is time that Texas Jim Robertson AKA James Battle Robertson, gets his proper recognition
as a legend in the Country Music Hall of Fame in Nashville, He has recently gotten more attention
in England, Canada. and othe foreign countries in CD and historical recognition than in his native
America. It will be a downright shame if this early radio-singing cowboy, hillbilly style
performer, and novelty artist is ignored by his peers in the United States. He made 2
fantastic recordings with The Three Suns, appeared with Jimmy Dean & the Wildcats,
served as a major star with RCA, made several patriotic records & radio programs to
bolster morale in WW2, and became a positive role model for several young country/music
stars. Country/Western music historians ,one and all , please look into the life and
contributions of this great musician. Dan Rightmer - Rightmerd51@sbcglobal.net

Just wanted to thank you for your piece on Renfro Valley. My daddy got his dose of
love for country music hangin' around the barn at Renfro Valley. He tells me the story
of fetching A.P. Carter some white shoe polish before a show one night. In exchange, A.P.
taught him to play the Wildwood Flower on his guitar. I learned that song from my
daddy when my hand was barely big enough to reach around the neck.
He was a poor hillbilly kid with no money - but found himself in the good graces
of an unpretentious country music legend. It sure ain't that way anymore.

Hello! I'm a singer who did some recording in the large
Nashville, Columbia recording studio (Old Quanset Hut) in the mid 70's.
In the 80's and 90's I requested them to send copies of the session to
my home address in Baton Rouge, and they did. Then, in the late 90's
(about), I called them to send more copies, and they told me that they
(Columbia) no longer had a studio in Nashville, but did have an office.
I asked them about my "master tape" and they said that they sent all of
the tapes to the people that they had an address on, but must not have
had my address. Why not? They'd been comunicating with me for the last
25 or so years! Then I started asking questions, and got some
information regarding a fire in the studio. Can anyone tell me is this
is true? I's sure like to find the tapes from that session!

Hello, I hope someone out there can help me. I am trying to help my neighbor who recently lost
her husband and misses him something awful. She is trying to find information on his days
in music and that's where I thought someone out there could help.
He had told me that back in his early days (30s-early 60s) that he played backup to quite a
few artists including Jonny Cash, Hank Willams, etc. He played in bands such as Green River
Boys, Hillbillys, North County Boys, etc. This morning on the radio I heard that an early
band with Johnny Cash was the Dixie Rhythm Ramblers and would like to know who they were.
As with all parts of music the names always change, his name is Robert R. Wendell and also
went by the name of Bobby Roberts and I would also like to know who Danny Wendell is that
played at the Grand Ole Opry. I know this is a lot to ask and I also know that there are a lot
of knowledgeable people out there that could help me. So ... please ... put on your thinking caps,
I would love to hear from you. Please mail me directly to my email address.
Thanks In advance, Inez Clay for Barbara Wendell - EBaby56@hotmail.com

My mother, Isabelle Mary Mansir, aka 'Dusty Randall' sang in the USO during the Korean war.
I think it would have been prior to 1952, since that is when her first child was born.
She married a serviceman by the name of Raymond Braun.
I'm trying to find information on her when she was in the USO. She died quite awhile ago,
she was only 38, and I did not know her very well ... although ... she could yodel!
How do I go about finding information on someone who performed in the USO?
She was an avid country western fan...her favorite singer back then was Elton Britt.
I actually got my name from one of his songs ... 'Lorelei'. Not too popular back in the 50's ...
but ... it has been a source of pride, knowing how 'eccentric' and unconventional she
was way back when. If you could help me in any way, I'd appreciate it. If not ... thanks anyway ...
I'll just try to continue my hunt. Sincerely, Lorelei 'Braun' - Ltjsmart1954@aol.com

I am looking for a song sung by a female artist (I believe that her father was also a country
singer). The song contained the lyrics "down, down, da da down". It had a fast tempo - but that's
all I can remember about the song. It was out several years ago, and would probably fall
under the category of country rock. Thanks for your help! Sue - spitlec@hotmail.com

Hey, we all agree that our copyrighted songs should be protected, but
come on, the record lady wasn't tryng to profit from the songs she posted.
And if someone had asked, I am sure she would have gladly removed their song.
So where is the middle of the road? Does too much protection, protect our
songs into obscurity? They say out of sight is out of mind. Maybe the same
can be said about songs that are not getting heard.
