Maybe not Keith but he was still very highly thought of by a good number of people. I'm from the uk and I certainly knew of him and his songs from way back and I loved them Best wishes John
I wish "the public" would realize that Charlie Daniels was known for much more than The Devil Went Down to Georgia. But Country music wasn't as popular in that era and there was quite a few artists that had successful careers that went 10 years or so but today are known for 1 or 2 songs.
not till you pointed it out Donny but thanks for listening and and showing us and hope you carry on with your observations and news.Thanks again for listening --------John
And you could tell his songs from other artists' even if they touched on the same subject,unlike today's music where one bonfire song sounds like all the others.
I remember this one from my 'WMAQ and WJJD' days back in Chicago. i guess i was not living a reality then. i so thought that if i worked hard and made a life for me that society would accept me regardless of the color of my skin.
Hi bilbo2shire.It sounds as if you've suffered a bit because of your belief in humanity. well hold on to that belief because most people in this world are decent human beings they just dont shout loud enough to be heard but the day is not far off when all evil will be wiped from the earth and people like you will flourish. The colour of a person's skin is not important it's whats inside that counts. Thanks for watching.regards jonjeanwes
It's 2021 and a beautiful, sunny cool morning here in Columbus, Georgia. I thank You for the lovely reply! Don't know if You're still around to read this but GOD BLESS!!!
I always loved Cal Smith, but I never felt he got the recognition he so richly deserved from the country music industry.
So true Donny he has always been one of my favorites and Ithink he's great thanks for listening
Awesome under rated Artist ❤
I used to listen to this song when I was a kid. Good song.
+charles hines It's a great song Charles thanks for listening
A Great story song written by John Adrian. I wish that the "public" would realize that Cal was known for much more than "Country Bumpkin".
Yes Keith I agree Cal has done far more than some people realize but he still has a big following of people who do.
Best wishes ----John
I don't think that Cal ever had the promotion of his recordings that he needed.
Maybe not Keith but he was still very highly
thought of by a good number of people.

THIS WAS HIS ALL TIME BEST SONG. NOT COUNTRY BUMPKIN!
It's hard to pick the best song by Cal Smith he did so many good ones I like them all. Thanks for listening Keith
Reminds me of a couple verses in Proverbs and and might be a warning
Have you ever noticed how many times Call Smith's looks changed over the years?

Jason's Farm is a great song, but Mr Smith had so many, Carroll County accident is a good one, give a listen to MacAurthers Hand or thunderstorms
When I see/hear Carroll County Accident, I think of Porter, and Buck with his electric banjo.
