BUT!! 23 #1 Hits. This is the same "Hall of Fame" that honored Little Jimmy Dickens 20 years prior to Carl Smith, 18 years prior to Webb and 13 years before Ray Price. Go figure!!

I think we thought about Young Love at some point, but we didn't think about it too hard or for very long. I like him better in his later early 70s years, with Since I Met You Baby and It's Just a Matter of Time, and Is It Wrong for Loving You. Those make use of his gifts better than the early teen dream stuff, I think, and the truth is that the more I listen to him the more I like him overall. But why him and why now, as you say, and if he gets in, then what very succesful country act doesn't? Barry: Yeah, no James in da book.

I was so exhausted by that point that I felt I was running on empty while writing it. Glad it was all right. Seriously, thanks so much for linking to so many of that series. It'll be a relief to get back to small posts on '50s music this fall. Wow, you thought the “purple” one was the best?

Hmm indeed. This is a very puzzling call l to me, considering the dozens of great and varied talents form the same 1945-197n at least slightly better cliche rock and roll love ballad with triplets thumping if Buddy Holly had lived to toy with it.
