Great tune, thankyou

I agree with you in that Johnny had a better voice. I was a big fan of his when he first came out.

Yes, Al Martino was a great singer and he was at his best in the Goodfather movies. I have a couple of his sixties LP's. I haven't put anything of his on YT because all his great stuff is already on there.

Yes, brother Johnny had a better voice, one more suted for country music than Dorsey's. I bought a couple of Dorsey's country albums and that what he had in the fifties with ERA records was gone. At this time he was metioker at best. I think the boose had got to him. It was a shame. "Rock A Billy" is fine but I've alway leaned to the "Big Band" sound and the "Big Voiced" Singers that record companys like "Columbia and RCA or Capitol had back in the fifties.

No Dorsey would never set the world on fire with his singing, but he had a unique sound to his voice he used to great effect when he was with era records. I loved his "River And The Mountain" which few ever heard. But later he went Country and I don't think he was that good at it. Now the best of Lucky Old Sun" was by Frankie Laine and Vaughn Monroe had a good version too in 1949. I never heard Jerry Lee Lewis's version and Don't think I would like it as I didn't like much from Sun Records.

While I think Frankie Laine's rendition is the definitive version, Dorsey Burnette's version is very credible. Thanks for posting.

A very good rendition by Dorsey!

Sinatra even charted with the song comming in at # 16 in 1949. Which was a long way from Frankie's # 1 or Monroe's #6. even Sarah Vaughan had a recording of it that charted #14 and Louis Armstrong at #19 that year.

Mark Gallagher

Your right it isn't the best. But if you only posted "THE BEST" YouTube would be kind of small. What I like to post is something that is done diffently or was over looked by the public when it was new.

This is a pretty weak version of the song. This guy does some nice vocal contortions, but he doesn't convey the meaning of the lyric at all. The two best of this song are FL's Mecury and Columbia recordings. While nowadays, Frankie's not properly recognized and most people seem to think "Lucky Old Sun" and "Georgia On My Mind" are Ray Charles songs, it's obvious that Ray based his versions of both of those songs on Laine's records. And Ray did not surpass Laine either time!
