Grandpa, Stringbean and some of the other regulars on Hee Haw are no longer with us. Hee Haw was just clean fun for the entire family. Of course, back then, most shows were clean. Glen Campbell, George Jones and other top country singers performed at one time or another on the Hee Haw stage. I always like Junior and his car lot. Call BR 549 (I think). I would like to see them resurrect the show, but I doubt it would be as good as the original. We need clean shows for the family to watch today.

You remember pickin' & grinnin' with Buck Owens and Roy Clark? hahahahahaha (this is with Buck Trent)
Roy is still alive, he's 82 and ….. apparently it's hard to remember jokes at that age… ;) this is so funny… also, playing guitar with old fingers and can't remember all the notes… I can relate to that! :o http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0NnZP82TBbM#t=33 |
I remember that segment very well. Buck Owens was actually from Fresno, California, I believe and Roy Clark was from Connecticut or somewhere in New England somewhere. You would never know by their accents. Both sounded like they grew up in the South. How about Minnie Pearl? That wasn't her real name. She came from an affluent family and somehow got into country music. Her real name is attached to some of the cancer clinics.

Sarah Colley aka Minnie Pearl

Thanks, freebrdrfd. I could not remember her real name, even though we have a cancer center in my town named for her. She did a lot to make people's lives better and brought a lot of joy to people of all ages.

I just heard Shania is doing her last tour this summer.
I gotta bring my A-game to make it past the security, this time. :p Hope she doesn't bring that horse, looks like he'd stomp me for sure. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rKf_5vQODbU&spfreload=10 |

:) hey Kuz, how you bin? ...remember Mother Maybelle? she was making hit songs the year I was born.
I grew up remembering her and that big Gibson guitar. She also had her daughters play in a band and sing with her, called the Carter Sisters. Johnny Cash married one of the sisters, June Carter. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A8szdi1D7OE&spfreload=10 |
they called Mother Maybelle's guitar style --Carter Scratchin' which played the bass, rhythm and melody.
I hear Blue grass guitar, was influenced from her style of picking and grinning. :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EUn-poI3gWA&spfreload=10 |
