Hello neighbors!! On this page I`ll be posting county music (or music that influences country music) from my collection of 78`s LP`s and 45`s. Most of what I`ll have here will be from about 1900 up into the 1950`s or so. I`ll try to use stuff that is not currently available to buy. All artists I`ll be posting recorded before 1950, but some recordings may have been made later than 1950. I hope you all enjoy what I`ll be putting one here!!

Jimmie Skinner`s #1 Bluegrass
I`ll be the first person to admit that Jimmie Skinner had a "unique" voice, but I sure like him. I`m thinking this is about the last record he made. He was kinda on both sides of the country/bluegrass fence. He wrote many songs recorded by both type of artists, and even on some of his own recordings where he recorded a song more than once he himself could sound like bluegrass or country. So if you are unfamiliar with him, I`d say give this a download!

No, it's not all of these tracks which are about the last he made.
ReplyDeleteFalling Leaves - 1961 (Bluegrass Special 45-EP-603)
Don't Do It (And It Won't Be On Your Mind) - ca. Oct. 1963 (Starday SEP-231)
The Mystery Of Little Kathy (aka The Mystery Of Catherine Winters) - ca. Oct. 1963 (Starday SEP-231)
This Old Road - ca. Oct. 1963 (Starday 687)
The rest might be from 1977, but note that you have not included track #11 - Sunny Caroline!!!
I added the missing track, so you`ll have to download it again if you want it. Sometimes things "disappear" off my computer sometimes, don`t know what happened to that one track. The track I added is from a CD (because I can`t get to the LP right now), but is the correct cut for the LP.
