ERNEST TUBB - LEON RHODES and the Texas Troubadours - I'll Take A Back Seat For You video free download

Lee Johnson

Leon became famous as The Lead Guitar on the Ernest Tub TV Show. Billy Byrd became famous when Ernes Tub said, "Take it Away Billy Byrd." Ernest Tub must have not paid his band members very good money, for Billy Byrd quit the ET Band and went with Another Road Band. Then Billy Byrd got tired of the Road Touring, and stayed in Nashville. The Famous Ernest Tub Guitar Player nearly starved, after he quit the Road Band Touring, so he started Driving a Taxi Cab in Nashville, during his later life. How sad ,but that is show business.

no there won't be, but at least these artists worked their asses off and put out lots of records. Who'd a thunk that gay men and whores would be the predominant face of country music. Certainly not , E.T.

Ernest, an entertainer and a good man to his fans! Caught him live in '75, at The Palomino in North Hollywood, CA. In between sets, I went out to his bus to "drop off" my 17 ET albums (which I had brought with me from home to the show) for Ernest to autograph. The guy who answered the door of the bus took the albums from my hands, said "Just a minute!," and slammed the bus door. A few minutes later, the bus door swung open..."Howdy, come on in!" said ET...we talked & he signed all 17 albums.

@borntrippin Oh and forgot to mention, next on my CD list to purchase is "Wagonmaster", a collection of songs Wagoner recorded very shortly before his death in 2007. I am in the UK and country music doesn't have as big a following as it does in the USA, and especially not the older country music, but I love it !!

@borntrippin not religious at all, nor do I have a religion as it happens, but I nevertheless do enjoy the songs. I'd say Wagoner is defo worth a listen to if you love the traditional country music that tell stories (many of them very depressing but hey, that's country music for you lol) but very good and enjoyable songs. Wagoner is definately my favourite non-Outlaw country artist.

@borntrippin I tell you who I do really enjoy listening to: Porter Wagoner. I have two of his CDs, "The Rubber Room" and "What Aint to Be, Just Might Happen". The best of the two being The Rubber Room...absolutely fantastic singer with fantastic music. ...includes "The Cold Hard Facts of Life", I play this on repeat quite a lot...I love that song, I love the pedal steel and twangy electric guitars. The other CD has a few religious/Gosepl type songs on it, and I am not religious at all

@old9skool9love Much agreed on the outlaw bit, been there for a long time. I wan't a big fan of the much older stuff until I was a bit older and had been thru alot of hard years, the older music was and is comforting!

@borntrippin I like this old kind of country, but I think my favourite sub-genre of country music is the Outlaw Country (Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson, Kris Kristofferson, David Allan Coe etc)

Bobby Stokes

There'll never again be great country music like this.

I,m a retired member of the armed forces.Country music like that ,makes me proud to have served.My dad was a wwii vet. in the army in the Pacific. When he came back home, he would always be singing My fillipino baby. It brings tears to my eyes the way things are now.I feel like I,m a stranger here at home. God,I miss my country!!
