Subject: RE: song search: 'The Shelton Bros.Gang'--S. IL
As you've indicated in your last post, Ruthie, there are a couple of corrections that anyone saving the words of the song I posted ought to take note of.

The name of the county in the first line of the song ought to be:

"Wayne County"---- not Blaine (as I mistakenly heard it.)

The second line of the first verse ought to read: "Pond Creek Bottoms ---- not Pine Creek Bottoms.

I do hope I didn't mis-hear anything else. While making the CD from the tape you sent me, I tried to clarify the sound as well as I could. Still, because the original record (probably 78-rpm) was quite worn from repeated playing over time, it wasn't possible to achieve the clarity I wanted.

P.S.---The software I use to create CDs is the Roxio Easy Media   Creator. I use basic settings, and that is easier to use than other difficult aspects of this same software. I'm quite happy with it.
