Late 1950’s and Early 1960’s and that nice polished Nashville sound. But it’s hard to imagine Waylon in that way, with slick back hair and a nice suit.
Great to see these 60's opry shows, we didn't see any of these over here in UK . I takes time and effort to digitise them to upload, I'm sure we all appreciate it. Do you have any shows from 65, 66 with Red Sovine ( Giddy up Go) , Willis Brothers ( Back up and Push, and Gonna buy Me a Juke Box ) Pee Wee king (When the Lights Go Dim Downtown) Johnny Bond (Ten little bottles) , Glenn Barber( Stronger than Dirt) , Adrian Roland (Exactly like him) , Jimmy Skinner ( This old Road) ? These songs come from two LPs I have on Starday of the 39th and 40th anniversary celebrations of the Grand Ole Opry 1965 and 1966. I love the fantastic Pedal steel guitar licks from Pete Drake on these two albums I always wondered if they were ever televised ?
Skeeter Davis and Boudleaux Bryant wrote the lyrics which Skeeter sang in her 1960 recording and in this '67 clip. Conway Twitty wrote his own lyrics for his 1972 version.
