Teddy, Dole, Lester and Leslie all grew up here in Hardy, Arkansas. My mom was their cousin, and I recall Teddy coming by the house a couple of times in the late 50s and 60s to see mom. They would stay sometimes with my Uncle John Zeiger. One of the very best tributes I ever heard about the Wilburn Brothers was late one evening back around 2000, when I was driving home from Batesville, where I worked. It was about an hour's drive and It was up around 9 pm. Sometimes, late at night, I could still pick up WSM on the radio and, that night, I was coming in very good. The announcer played a song done by the Wilburn Brothers, called Trouble's Back In Town. After the song was over, he simply said "they were a class act". Such a true statement. My Mon's brothers, John and Bob Leonard would have passed for being brothers of Teddy and Doyle. I guess this is were I got my desire to become a musician, which has given me much pleasure since 1963, and taken me to play on stage with the great steel man John Huey, and playing opening acts for Bobby Bare and Johnny Tillotson in Little Rock in 64, opening for Crystal Gayle, playing on the Rhodes Show with the great Speck Rhodes, a wonderful person.
Love Jean Shepard, singing ,yodeling, & feistiness-- strong supporter of traditional country music & didn't care who knew it. Loved het. Also, love Wilburns, excellent plus good to music newcomers, helping them get started, of course, the one & only Oswald, great comedian, musician ( fobto, bango), singer -- the whole package. Os & the Wilburns should be in the Hall of Fame. So disgraceful, mire country out than it-- real countr
That's the incredible Curly Chalker on pedal steel! One of the best EVER! He reverses the necks on his steels, he's got E9 on front, C6 back neck for anyone in the know. Had me wondering how he could play country so well on the C6 neck until I found that out. Country IS E9, C6 is everything else. Curly is a pro on BOTH!

I just love Country music.
It was this performance of At The Time that was my first contact with Jean Shepard. Years later I have a huge record collection
There is nothing better than old country music
Jean Shepherd is the Best! WoW 😮

I ❤Miz' Jean Shepard's leisure suit jacket-dress ensemble!
I didn’t know Jean wore Dolly wigs.
She needed a better looking wig
