I had to ask my parents about this guy because I wasn't familiar with him. I had no idea it was the alter ego of Ferlin Husky ! His imitations were great.
Ole Ferlin Husky. Gene Sheppard used to tour around with him when she was just a kid. Her parents were worried that if they had of got married, what would the kids look like, a Sheppard or a Husky. lol. True story.
At the huge Capitol Records show at the Hollywood Bowl way back in 1967 , Ferlin brought down the house as Simon Crum doing “Country Music Is Here To Stay”.
