...1952, Porter Wagoner hace su primera sesión de grabación para RCA, canta la canción de Hank Williams "Settin' the woods on fire"









Tambien me gusta el rockabilly, la versión que hizo Chris LeDoux no la he encontrado.

Comb your hair and paint and powder you act proud and i'll act prouder
you sing loud and i'll sing louder tonight we're settin' the woods on fire
you're my gal and i'm your feller dress up in your frock of yeller
i'll look swell but you'll look sweller settin' the woods on fire
we'll take in all the honky tonks tonight we're havin' fun
we'll show the folks a brand new dance that never has been done
i don't care who thinks we're silly you'll be daffy and i'll be dilly
we'll order up two bowls of chili settin' the woods on fire
i'll gas up my hot rod stoker we'll get hotter than a poker
you'll be broke but i'll be broker tonight we're settin' the woods on fire
we'll sit close to one another up one street and down the other
we'll have us a time oh brother settin' the woods on fire
we'll put aside a little time to fix a flat or two
my tires and tubes are doin' fine but the air is showin' through
you clap hands and i'll start bowin' we'll do all the laws allowin'
tomorrow i'll be right back plowin' settin' the woods on fire

Ed Nelson, Fred Rose.

...1953, Eddy Arnold graba "I really don't want to know"



Dolly Parton y Willie Nelson



Skeeter Davis



El Rey




Oh how many arms have held you
and hated to let you go
how many, oh how many, i wonder
but i really don't want, i don't wanna know
Oh how many lips have kissed you
and set, set your soul aglow, yes they did
how many, o how many, i wonder, yes i do
but i really don't want to know
So always make, make me wonder
and always make, make me guess
and even, you know even if i ask you
oh darling oh don't you, don't confess
Just let it, let it remain your secret
oh for darling, darling i love you so
no wonder, yeah no wonder, i wonder
mmm, cause i really don't want, i don't wanna know

(Don Robertson, Howard Barnes)

Hola Santi:
Mi prefe la primera version... mil gracias
Carlos

A mí en este caso me gusta más la versión de Elvis, Eddy Arnold tiene muy buena voz pero no le encuadro definitivamente como un artista exclusivamente country, salvo contados discos.

Un saludo.

...1966, Wynn Stewart graba "It's such a pretty world today"



Merle Haggard



Wanda Jackson



Nancy Sinatra



Del Reeves



Thornbirds




It's such a pretty world today look at the sunshine
and every day's the same since i met you
it's such a pretty world today knowing that you're mine
and happiness is being close to you
And though the rain may fall our skies will all be blue
and if i look close enough the sun will come shining through
it's such a pretty world today look at the sunshine
today and every day since i met you
It's such a pretty world today look at the sunshine
and every day's the same since i met you
it's such a pretty world today knowing that you're mine
and happiness is being close to you
And though the rain may fall our skies will all be blue
and if i look close enough the sun will come shining through
it's such a pretty world today look at the sunshine
today and every day since i met you
Look at the sunshine
today and every day since i met you

...1954, Marty Robbins graba "Time goes by" en Columbia.




Time goes by and i still love you
place no one on earth above you
time goes by and still i haven't changed
time goes by and i still miss you
wanna hold you close and kiss you
time goes by and still i haven't changed
You told me to forget you
and find somebody new
but i don't want somebody else
i'm still in love with you
i love you and you should know it
what else must i do to show it
time goes by and still i haven't changed
I love you, i do so madly
so completely and so gladly
time goes by and still i haven't changed
like a ship that needs a captain
i need you, that's all i'm askin'
time goes by and still i haven't changed
So give me what i cry for
it's you i'm thinkin' of
i can't be any different
you see, i'm still in love
say you care and really show it
hold me close and make me know it
time goes by and still i haven't changed


Un saludo.
Santi.
