COUNTRY OLDIES

The Original Kingston Trio

A little bit of Country music (or is Tijuana Jail really a Folk song?). We have here -

Bill Haley sings the great Candy Kisses in his Bill Haley and the Saddlemen days so it was probably the late 1940's when he put this out.

Kingston Trio with Tijuana Jail. You Tube hosts many of their big hits.

Ferlin Husky, who has been featured before, now sings Gone and with Jean Shepherd they sing Forgive me John - one of those answer songs following on from their big hit Dear John.

Gene Autry - The Singing Cowboy - South of the Border. Gene went on to become a multi millionaire through owning a baseball club. A pilot he flew transport aircraft in Burma during WWII
