Subject: RE: 'Grandpa' Jones birthday
Grandpa did the best job i ever heard on
(Sweet Lips) aka The Battle Of King's Mountain, BAR NONE.
Sweet Lips was a rifle, named for his girl in tennessee
When Sweet Lips spoke, [the chains that bound us broke ?]
In his earlier years Grandpa was a tremendous performer.
kinda reminds me of 2 characters on Gunsmoke
Festus Hagan and Shug Fisher, playing cloddish roles but
gifted members of the Sons Of The Pioneers..
