Fingerpicking

Merle Travis has always been a favorite of mine.  If You like good fingerpicking you’ll love the great Merle Travis.  I have added to “Pages” a video of Merle performing “Too Much Sugar For A Dime.”  Hope you enjoy.

Spade And Bud

Just wanted to remind you that I added a couple of videos you might like.  You can scroll to pages or click on the bars at the top of the blog. 

“Spade Cooley” was one of my favorites.  This clip is about ten minutes in length and features Tex Williams among others.

“Turkey, TX” is Bud Townsend’s (Nocona, Texas native) documentary about Bob Wills.

The Pledge Of Allegiance

I remember Red Skelton reciting this on his TV show in 1969.  He loved his country.  He loved making people laugh.  He was an American.  Of the few Master Mason’s in Hollywood back when it didn’t embarrass a parent to take his child to the movies, I believe Red was my favorite entertainer.  We need more Red Skeltons (and other M.M.’s like John Wayne, Tex Ritter and Roy Rogers who practiced the tenets of Freemasonry) setting an example for today’s youth.
