I think I see the Wabash Cannonball rounding the curve and Brother Oswald waxing immortal on his dobro. You can almost smell the coal smoke, sweat, and tobacco.
It's A shame he died so young. I would've loved hearing him sing any new songs he might have wrote and how his style might have changed over the years. Most interesting to me.
"The Great Speckled Bird" is a hymn from the southern United States whose lyrics were written by the Reverend Guy Smith, and transcribed by singer Charlie Swain. -- Wikipedia The tune is the same apparently traditional melody used in the songs "Thrills That I Can't Forget," recorded by Welby Toomey and Edgar Boaz for Gennett in 1925, and the song "I'm Thinking Tonight of My Blue Eyes," originally recorded by the Carter Family for Victor in 1929. The same melody was later used in the 1952 country hit "The Wild Side of Life," sung by Hank Thompson, and the even more successful "answer song" performed by Kitty Wells called "It Wasn't God Who Made Honky Tonk Angels" in the same year. A notable instrumental version is found on the Grammy Award-Nominated album 20th Century Gospel by Nokie Edwards and The Light Crust Doughboys on Greenhaw Records. -- Wikipedia BTW, Hank Williams wasn't writing songs at the time Roy Acuff first recorded this song. Hank was 13 in 1936.
