Jordan. You hit it out of the park again. Loved the colorful history of Roy Acuff. And Earl Scruggs...I never knew who he was until I watched Beverly Hillbillies as a kid. Bluegrass. Miss it....
Kitty Wells & Johnnie Wright were wonderful people & I had the pleasure of meeting them after one of their shows also their son Bobby Wright back in 1999 at Lecanto FL
Those headstones for the country music stars have such great attention to details. Thank you for sharing and telling us about where some of the country greats are laid to rest. Appreciate all the hard work you do on everything. Stay safe and keep well and lots of hugs for Jah🤗
I’m from Nashville and my brother is buried in Sprjng Hill. As for Roy Acuff, I remember meeting him as a youth walking home from school as he got into his car outside the Inglewood Pharmacy.
Hi Jordan! Loved this! I have always enjoyed your cemetery vlogs. Your such a wealth of information. I'm really enjoying seeing your vlogs every day! Take care and hope to see you tomorrow!❤
My father passed away in 1969 at age 33, he is across the street in the Vet's cemetery...Springhill has a ton of history....Have lived in the west since 69 and it was nice to tag along with you on this one!
He was such an awesome man. The Scugg’s are amazing. Was Jimmy Martin, Little Jimmy? Tennessee Pride is so delicious. Kitty Wells was an amazing woman and singer. Billy Walker I just remember his face. Pete Drake and Floyd Cramer I don’t remember. Wow Capps had a career. Thank u.
That was a funny story about Possum's saloon leaking down on Acuff's museum! Hats off to Earle Scruggs, he married a beautiful manager. As soon as I saw the statue of the boy with the big hat and fishing rod, it had to be Odum. We've taken home some of that Tennessee pride sausage. Good stuff.
Earl Scruggs played the theme song for the Beverly hillbillies but Dan Parmaley of the Bluegrass cardinals actually wrote the theme song with the banjo
Hello Jordan! What a musical cemetery. I can't believe how many country artists are buried there. Would definitely like to see another part in the future. Thank you Jordan. Blessings - Judith 🎭🎵
Thankyou Jordon for introducing me to several Country music artists & the stories behind them. A great episode. Kind regards from Adelaide, South Australia.
I was thought Roy Acuff was buried at the Grand Ole Opry. I know when they built the new Opry they built him a house there. I'm not sure where I heard that he was buried there. I'm glad you set that straight.
You could spend hours there paying your respects, what a special place. I remember growing up I would laugh and say "I will never be a fan of country music, it's just awful stuff"! Boy was I wrong, country music soothed my heart starting in 2004, when my marriage ended. Then I enjoyed learning about some of the Greats...good Stuff!!! Thank you, Jordan! 🌼
Jordan...Great vlog! When you moved away from Los Angles, I wondered if you would find enough places of interest in the Southeast but your trips to the Midwest have really been interesting and fruitful. Any plans for the Chicago area. Lots of mob history, etc.
I enjoy your cemetery vlogs. You give so much information. The Wright headstone with Philippians 4:13 is also my favorite verse and the same last name. I also love Nashville and the Franklin area.
I’m a distant relative of Earl Scruggs through my great-great grandmother, Katie Lee (Scruggs) Green. A lot of my family still reside or are buried in Nashville.
Hello Mr lion and this doggie. U guys are awesome and amazing person to all of us FANS keep up the greatest RUclips video work. Ur dog is very cute and sweet love him so much.
My dad used to tell a joke that if Kitty Wells married Conway Twitty she would be Kitty Twitty LOL I grew up on Bluegrass and watching the Grand ole Opry with my dad.
Thank you Jordan thank you for sharing these country singers memories i enjoy your videos so much it was nice to see jah cuddle up in bed looking comfy, see you in the next video.
💋Thanks Jordan. It’s been a while since I been to that area and I am so glad you went because I didn’t get the chance to go to Springfield cemetery yet. You are a walking and talking historical pro. ~Love&Light♥️Carli
Hello Jordan! I was recently dismayed to learn that Zsa Zsa Gabor's former estate at 1001 Bel Air Road was demolished, I saw it on a google map. That was a lovely house designed in the French Regency style. I acquired in one of the metaverse (NextEarth) and I'm sad that this historic place is a thing of the past. Maybe you could make a video of it! All the best for your channel! Giorgio from Hungary
My husband and i went there three years ago and it was amazing to see the stars that was resting there,but could not believe how small of stone Keith Whitley had we were along time finding him,but did not know Kitty Wells was in this cementary missed her.Thank you for sharing this with us,love you Jordon.😊❤We were so honoured to have Kayton Roberts take us there as he played steel for Hank Snow. He has since passed on to the great blue sky R.I.P. Mr. Kayton Roberts.😥🙏💔
Ive said it before and so have you . You have the best job in the world.. Thanks for taking us along on your travels and show us things some of us may never see but because of you we have!! Great to see Jah Chilling out too. lol
Hi Jordan, well, those gravestones were definitely impressive, especially Earl Scruggs. I liked the gravestone with the old fashioned car even though it wasn't to do with music. I think the Jahster would have come with you, if he wasn't so comfy ha, ha. Great vlog Jordan.
Directly in front if Jimmy Martin and diagonally across the road from Roy Acuff is Sonny Day, my father, who played accordion with Roy Acuff for many years, and was a highly regarded studio musician, band leader, and member of the Musician's Union Executive Board all through the 60's, 70's and 80's.
@@DazewithJordantheLion So kind of you... I should have also mentioned that even with my proximity & emotional ties to the cemetery, I hadn't realized all these amazing musicians were there also. Thanks for the tour - & looking forward to the next one! Best, BT
Hi Jordan. I like to make a correction. Roy Acuff was not the first artist in the Country Music Hall of Fame, but rather the first LIVING artist in the CMHOF. Jimmie Rodgers, Hank Williams, and Fred Rose, Acuff's publishing partner, were the artists first inducted to the hall in 1961. These men I just mentioned died in 1933, 1953, and 1954, respectively.
Earl Scruggs played the theme song of the Beverly hillbillies but the banjo player of the Bluegrass Cardinals named Dan Parmalee wrote the song And did the original band joke to it
I'm not sure if you're a fan of Uncle Tupelo, but the song "Acuff-Rose" is one of my favorites, (Track 2, Anodyne) I sing along any time it's played, usually at work, but if you're not familiar with them, check 'em out! I'd be surprised if you didn't sort of appreciate them or love them. Either one is good! And as always Give that little nugget Jah a bellyrub for me! And safe travels...
I worked in the Springhill sales office back in the late 1990’s and never a day went by without fans dropping by looking for one country legend or another. Our most sought after one at that time was Keith Whitley. People were coming from all over the world to visit him.
I am obsessed with the grave tours. Jordan you are the best storyteller keep up the good work. Love from MN watching you travel helps with my cabin fever.
I wonder why the Acuff family has the large tombstone and then the smaller ones on individual graves. Is the larger one a mausoleum or a marker because it's a family plot? I'll admit, it's an odd question. I have to share this too, bc of Earl Scruggs, a few Christmases ago, my son received an electric guitar, he also fell in love with the music of Waylon Jennings, Earl Scruggs, Willie Nelson and a country artist, named Ray Price, I believe. He would continuously watch and play along with a PBS special featuring Mr. Price and I think, Mr. Scruggs. Thank you for paying homage to beautiful country music... there's nothing else like it
Enjoyed the vlog and will add to the Memphis trip in August. This will date me, but my parents loved the Grand Old Opry . We went to the old Ryman Auditorium and saw Acuff, Wells, Snow, Stringbean, Little Jimmie Dickens and Walker and others. I didn’t appreciate the experience then but I do now. Thanks for bringing back memories.
Oh wow this is an amazing tribute Jordan, l come from a musical family and all these artists were our inspiration .We have all there albums so this got me excited. Thanks for the memories of the Legends who still fill my heart and soul with their music to this day. Definitely return another time I look forward to those stories. 💛💚🧡👍
Except for trash acuff this a great vlog . The reason fir acuff bieng trash is when he tried to deny hank's daughter one of her family name an 2 the right to sing an make money herself from it , all acuff was interested in was makin money off his cash cow an tried in vain thankfully to stop jett from her rightful place . Hank sr was looking forward to meeting his girl an set out to provide for her in all legal matters so i know he be very angry with how all his family have treated her . Acuff rot in hell
Possibly a future video would be to the Harpeth Hills Memory Gardens in Nashville where Country Disc Jockey Ralph Emery and country legend Chet Atkins are next to one another.

Have you ever thought about coming to Lynchburg Tennessee and touring Jack Daniels and do you have a Facebook page
Kitty Wells & Johnnie Wright were wonderful people & I had the pleasure of meeting them after one of their shows also their son Bobby Wright back in 1999 at Lecanto FL
Hi Jordan and fur baby.. Welcome to my "hood"!!! I live about 10 miles from this cemetery. ❤️
Those headstones for the country music stars have such great attention to details. Thank you for sharing and telling us about where some of the country greats are laid to rest. Appreciate all the hard work you do on everything. Stay safe and keep well and lots of hugs for Jah🤗
I really loved learning about some people that I didn’t know :)
Hi jorden lov the vlog from Margaret UK
I’m from Nashville and my brother is buried in Sprjng Hill. As for Roy Acuff, I remember meeting him as a youth walking home from school as he got into his car outside the Inglewood Pharmacy.
Hi Jordan! I am a Canadian and my grandma , uncle loved Hank Snow!
He’s a Canadian Legend.
Hi Jordan! Loved this! I have always enjoyed your cemetery vlogs. Your such a wealth of information. I'm really enjoying seeing your vlogs every day! Take care and hope to see you tomorrow!❤

Really enjoyed this. You make everything so interesting. Jah looked pretty comfortable and content. Living the good life. Take care.

Another fantastic vlog Jordan. What ever the subject matter, you hit it out of the park every time.
Floyd was my dads favorite nice vlog Jordan 💜
He was such an awesome man. The Scugg’s are amazing. Was Jimmy Martin, Little Jimmy? Tennessee Pride is so delicious. Kitty Wells was an amazing woman and singer. Billy Walker I just remember his face. Pete Drake and Floyd Cramer I don’t remember. Wow Capps had a career. Thank u.
It is always so interesting that you have little tidbits about the people you vlog. Great job, Jordan.
You did a fine job on this look into southern culture encompassing entertainment and food. You were born in Ohio but clearly you are southern by soul

Indeed. Mr. Acuff. He was the real deal
Beautiful cemetery. Just imagine that band. I had to pull up Floyd Cramer's Last Dance, my mother's favorite.
Check out Floyd Cramers grandson Jason coleman on youtube!

Thanks Jordan for taking us there
My best friend is in that cemetery.
Sorry for your loss.
And yet again, another great day JTL has for us! Thank you, Jordan!
Thanks for showing the last crypt was interesting to see 👀 what it was exactly because it was facing away from me ..
great and wonderful video I would have loved to have been there with you to share things I knew as well as my memory of meeting Kitty Wells
My stepdads grandmother is laid to rest in spring hill it’s a beautiful cemetery
Great video! I like your cemetery videos so much! Good job👏👍🏻
The Colonel didnt cut Hank Snow out. He offered him 50% of Elvis and he said no.
BTW, Roy Acuff was inducted the next year.
What an awesome video!! Thanks for sharing this one...
Any plans to film in New Jersey Jordan The Lion? Ask if it works for Ja.
I am obsessed with the grave tours. Jordan you are the best storyteller keep up the good work. Love from MN watching you travel helps with my cabin fever.
Go Vikings
Thank you for telling us about the star
Thanks Jordan. :)

Didn't know much about country music but this was really interesting. Would be interesting to see how and where those monuments are constructed.
Love Kitty Wells. Best female country voice ever imo.
Earl & Louise- What a great team..This was so interesting!
Great blog Jordon it's great to see over somebody's country music legends are laid to rest
Lovedthe video. Great info. Can't wait for the next 1!

Jimmie Rodgers, Hank Williams and Fred Rose were the first three elected to the Country Music Hall of Fame - 1961. Roy Acuff was Elected in 1962.
