  • In case you didn't know, the C in Jimmy C. Newman stands for Cajun! The late great Jimmy is often credited for giving Dolly Parton her first Opry appearance-he gave up his second song to her back in 1959 when she was 13. God bless you, Jimmy C.

    Have it on 45 RPM stereo in my 1961 Seaburg Artist Of The Week juke box. Of course it's by Hank himself. Never heard of Jimmy but he and the band are very good. Hank would probably want to add another fiddle but would approve of this rendition.

      Hats are permissible inside public buildings or if part of a uniform, costume or signature part of one's character or act on a stage, restaurant, etc.
      Now if I entered your private home and I failed to remove my cap, hat, hood or other head gear, that would be rude and disrespectful.

      Hank Williams wrote this song about a club in Beaumont Texas named YVONNE'S owned by a lady named Yvonne(Cajun)
      A local D. J., Gordon Baxter, sat with him during the intermission.
      Yvonne is long buried; the club was bought and remodeled into another Entertainment Venue.
      However, many musicians started at Yvonne's.
      JAMBALAYA is a lasting tribute.
