    From the notes of the late Shannon Burns. The dark haired girl over the right shoulder of Carl is Sherry Moyer, the first female country drummer. Her mother wrote the song, Don't Let Cross Over. Just a little trivia from one of the greatest writers on you tube music vids. We all miss you Shannon. RIP.

    There are so many folks that long for County Music to return to it's roots. This is an example of the classic music that many of us grew up listening to. I have always loved it and have performed this on the nursing home circuit for decades. Now in my seventies, I have come to appreciate this style so much more. Makes me want to polish up the Martin, call up the boys and do it one more time!.

      Dolly Parton didn't like Carl Butler very much...if I remember the story right, he told her she had to sing louder. Now she just about owns TN. But this is just about his best with Pearl, his wife. I remember when the song originally aired...we were watching it...have always loved the song. How you like those matching 'Nudie' suits? Classy.

    One of my favorite songs, and Mr. & Mrs. Carl Butler have the best version out there in my opinion. Carl had such a divine voice, but adding Pearl's voice at the perfect right times makes this version fabulous. Thanks for posting this video that amazes me to see them them as they appeared on television back in 1963 or 1964! That is what my photographic memory keeps telling me cause I was just a kid & started learning to sing the first song (Their first & only #1 true country hit) in this video. I remember thinking that with those matching colorful outfits that even Webb Pierce might have been jealous, especially of Carl's gorgeous suit. LOL! Thanks for the work you had to do to put this 1 magnificent post on UA-cam!

    We had a tall stack of 45's in Northway Alaska in '65, this was one of them. My mom and dad brought them when we moved there from west Texas. I was in second grade. There was no tv, and I think the AM radio picked up like two stations. I must have played those 45's a thousand times. Great memories, real country music, not the "city and western" they call country now.

    Do you know how carl butler got that song ? Answer is he was eating cat food out of a can and Pearl Butler said that is for the cat and he replied Don't let me cross over. This is not a joke
