Hillbilly Hula and the Wreck of Ol' Number 9 had respectable sales. Tex was a live act and he would dress as an Indian Chief or a Cowboy. He could make a Dobro do things that have not been seen since. Check http://redneckerson.blogspot.com/2008/08/chippeha.html for a great Album of Tex's work which includes a 15 minute show Country Music Time For the USAF somewhere in the late fifties early sixties. Hank Sr did a version either on acetate or on one his radio shows that was released in an overdubbed version in the fifties of the Dixie Cannonball that was a good version too!Howdyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03817710041339540732noreply@blogger.com
