It is an early effort by Marty Robbins, probably from the early 1950's. He recorded as far back as 1952 for Columbia. Hope you are listening to the Greenbriar Boys "Ragged But Right" LP. It gets my vote for the best record of the Folk Era. Of course, there is Ian & Sylvia's "Northern Journey", then again... |
