  1. Excellent taste Boobie. Gid Tanner was born in the same town as my ex wife (but I don’t hold it against him). When I was a chap, my dad would let me and my brother play some of his old 78 records if we were good. One was Ernest and Red called “The Tennessee Border”. 45 years later I still remember some of the words.

    Ernest Tubb helped dozens of people break into country music (including Willie Nelson, Johny Paycheck and many others) with his “Midnight Jamboree” show and his TV show. For his 65th birthday they did an album with the stars of the day doing some of his songs. So many wanted to participate they ended up with at least 5 albums (which I have on CD). This one is of Willie Nelson long prior to smokin’ weed with Toby Keith.

    A local station in Atlanta used to run replays of this 1950’s show (Country Music Jamboree if I remember correctly) featuring Ernest Tubb and many others back in the 80’s. This one had Jim Reeves and Ray price.

    I love the old country and gospel from the 40’s through the 60’s or so..
