They aren't very well-known now, but when my father was quite young, the Delmore Brothers had some relevance. Their song "Blues Stay Away From Me" has been covered by many artists, including Gene Vincent. Vincent, as well as several others, also covered their song "Beautiful Brown Eyes." My father who lived in Birmingham for a while said he used to jam with them sometimes at a radio station there. He said they asked if he wanted to play even more, but it would have meant quitting his job.

Very cool. What a legend. Hard to believe Buddy is still out there playing.

Huelyn Duvall, West Texas rockabilly guy from the late 50s who died last year. Rockabilly fans in Europe kept his music alive over the years. This is from a 2015 EP, I hadn't heard it before today.

A few years before she passed away, Tammy Wynette (who I've mentioned before was my third cousin) did this duet with Sting. Nice arrangement.

You've said that before.

They did open for some big bands of the time. Their headlining gigs were relatively small.

Well, I can't help it, they still are!

I like them (have all their CDs), but they really fit the arena rock blueprint (in the sense of being an eternal opening act, but playing music aspiring to fill arenas) - which TO ME isn't an insult.

Listen to the cause Chet Atkins will take up at 9:45. I know a certain someone here will get a kick out of it.
Another pleasant surprise for me was noticing the woman making the song request to George Jones at 19:15 used to be my babysitter. Small world.

You had good taste in babysitters. Pretty lady.
