   I guess Ricky had to change the lyrics. Couldn’t have such a clean-cut boy mention beer.

       and that’s James Burton next to Ricky, if I’m not mistaken.

         Whoa, per Wikipedia, James lived in the Nelson home for two years. I’m pretty sure it was him, also.

         I like Robert kicking his running shoes against the wall behind him to the beat.

         Isn’t it great to be on a first name basis with such talented people? Or is this where the “it’s not who you know, it’s who knows you” comes in?

   Sheila–
   You forgot Louis Armstrong. He was singing this song in the 1920s. There are a couple of videos on Youtube showing him performing the song substantially later. One is at the London Paladium in 1956, with some good shots of the audience, and another with his All-stars at a later date. This performance is a bit showy, but it’s one of the few available.

   Buck Owens covered it as well.

     It was covered all over the place! I should keep a Master List. These 4 are my current faves.
