Thread Name: Found Musical Treasures - 78s of old cowboy songs
Subject: RE: Found Musical Treasures
I'll bet you're right, Jim! My sense is my brother would have done one record, both sides one after another, BUT both of those songs are on separate sides of one tape, so maybe not. It certainly sounds like you've got it right, though my bro is usually very meticulous about getting names right, etc. It maybe that my dad sang it as O'Hooligan's and my brother wrote it the way he heard it. I know I've done that with the old songs when I am singing them...dad and mom's versions always come through no matter what some lyrics might say. Same with tunes.:-)

Folks, thanks so much for your interest. I will catch up to you via PM over the next couple of days. I am doing the second r-to-r tape, today, then will start the editing.
