Tis said with the exception of Jesus himself, there are more songs that are about or at least mention Hank thr Father than anyone else, I tried counting one time and was at about 250 and there's been a lot more since then and I know I didn't come close to finding them all.

Still think this one is my favorite.  Despite DAC wearin' a Charlie One Horse hat. ::)

It looks like DAC is tryin' to dress like Hank Jr. They make them Charley One horse hats over in Garland, Texas on the east side of Dallas. The same outfit now owns Stetson too.

Tex, that was from the earky 80's, whole dange bunch a them dressed that way.  Hat Brands Inc is the name, Owns Stetson, Resitol, Dob and Charlie One Horse, the area rep don't care for me, was in last fall, got done with the buyer and wandered into OWS.  I was there, he asked questions, I told him the truth. ;D  Could tell he didn't like my answers. 

Arcey, them dang folks like that that work with the public like that need a sense of humor, I do my best that way with customers, even though I sometimes want to scrap them out for spare parts. ;D  And sorry, I'd been temped to tell the old biddy that was funny and lighten up, course I'd told my Dr. about her, but don't think he'd hire one like that anyway.

Del, That outfit is supposed to have a big outlet store over there. I never have been too excited to drive clear across Dallas just look at Hats. There's another hat outfit that has an outlet store near Stephenville, Texas. It's got an Italian name,

Serimtelli (sp)  If you make a drive go their first, much more impressed with their product, although Hat Brands has gotten better in the last couple years.

While you fellers are one yer road trip I just thought I'd put Mr. Cash's voice inta perspective.  In comparison ta this, he's an opera star...

Brad was really excited about making the video with Andy. After making the video was over, Andy gave Brad his guitar and signed it. The guitar looked like the one he played on the TV show in the 60s.  That is a great song, a lot of guys can identify with that song.

Don't like everthing Brad does, but by durn he's helpin' bring real CM back and he seems to have a likin' to some of the older folks.  Not bad at all.

That place called "The Broken Spoke" in Austin is a good old-fashioned honky tonk, complete with a hardwood dancefloor.  They serve up purty fair CFS. It's on S. Congress in Austin, if my memory serves me correct. You picked some good songs off of Youtube, Del, especially Ian's.
