      @Bobby Bare unfortunately No but if you have any plans to tour the U.K. I’d love to hear about it
      I gained my love of country and western listening to my dad’s records from the 50s and 60s he’s 86 now and loved it when I showed him this video

    Dear John, oh, how I hate to write
    Dear John, I must let you know tonight
    That my love for you has died the way like grass upon the lawn
    And tonight I wed another, dear John.
    I was overseas in battle when the postman came to me
    He handed me a letter and I was just as happy as I could be
    Cause the fighting was all over and the battles have all been won
    But then I opened up the letter and that started, dear John.
    Won't you please send back my picture my husband wants it now
    When I tell you who I'm wedding you won't care dear anyhow
    And it hurts me so to tell you that my love for you has gone
    But tonight I wed your brother, dear John.
    And tonight I wed another, dear John...

    Glenn Johnson I so wish the BBC had these two singing together on the Wembley Country Festival in 1968.Had the audio recorded from the show onto a reel to reel recorder.Back in the 80`s,i was MC at a Hillsider`s show in Sussex.When i first saw this just now on the country music channel on TV,i was hoping it was a clip from the 1968 edition.Anyway,great clip and thanks for this upload.
