Thread Name: Coffee Drinking Nighthawk - WWVA
Subject: RE: Coffee Drinking Nighthawk - WWVA
Back in the 50's when I was in the CGC COOS BAY, when we were up in the Davis straits, WWVA was the only station that would come in. We country boys loved it..the city boys hated it. Years later, I got to meet Lee. We were both on the bill at Smokey Greens bluegrass festival at Porter Corners N.Y. He died a couple of years ago, the end of an era. He really was one of a kind. And by the way, he is the only one I ever heard sing the original lyrics to Wildwood Flower.
