Mae Boren Axton's son Hoyt Axton wrote the song "Joy to the World" most known for being performed by Three Dog Night. He also was the father who got a Mogwai for his son in the movie Gremlins. He was a very well known person who did a ton of voiceover work and acting bits along with his music career.
dunno if you guys gives a damn but if you guys are bored like me during the covid times then you can watch pretty much all the new series on instaflixxer. I've been watching with my brother for the last months =)
@@billyk... Brings back so many memories. My mom played bass & we all sang. Kind of had confused parents when we went nuts for the Beatles. ( I was 6). There were 5 of us kids & all of us were singers & musicians!
Thank you for memorializing Sheb Wooley. He an my Dad grew up together and remained good friends for their lifetimes. He would visit us in Alaska where he came up with the character "Ben Colder". He was a great guy. Have been meaning to visit Sheb but unable to. Again, thank you!
Fun memory- When I was 10, Johnny Cash, came to play at the university my Dad taught at. The auditorium he played in , was also where my grade school had gym class ; there was so many ways to “ sneak in” the place , many of us neighborhood kids and I saw many acts there. The night he played, I Rode my bike there, parked it in the back, and went right in the row of back doors , and there was the stage ! I stood to the right of the stage and watched Johnny play! They took a break and came off the stage & I was mesmerized and just stood staring. Johnny bumped me by accident, put his hand on my shoulder to steady me & said “ Sorry darlin” and went on. Then an usher came up and asked me for my ticket stub that I couldn’t produce, lol, and I got bounced! But I was face to face with Johnny Cash in a brief moment ! Great memory - I’m near 60 now, but I never forgot how tall he looked , and the sound of his cool voice!
Oh, Lamont..............Had I had known you going to be in Hendersonville, I would have made a nice home cooked meal for you. A hot shower too. Stay safe. Loved your video! Blessings!!
My uncle is burried there. He worked for Peterbuilt. Sure do miss. ""Uncle Frog"" RIP all burried in that beautiful place. Thanks Lamont for sharing. Love and peace
One you missed was Billy Walker. He tragically died in a car accident with his wife Bettie and 2 of his band members in Alabama. By the grace of God his grandson survived.
Mr Lamont, thank you for making this video. My parents were great fans of country music, so I grew up with it. Watching this video was like my childhood flashed before me. Sweet memories Ive forgotten about. Thank you for making me remember 🙏🏼❤️
Memories of a snow white dove...isn't that how it goes? Carter family owned property in Doniphan MO...where my moms from. Mom met her when they were kids. Mom always talks about how nice the Carter family was and how their outhouse sat on a lil island in the current river away from the house lol
VERY TOUCHING INTRODUCTIONS TO THESE FOLK UR COMPASSION FOR FOLK IS A DEFINITE GOD SEND AND UR KNOWLEDGE SHOWS TO ME U CERTAINLY DO UR HOMEWORK GOD CONTINUE TO BLESS UR MINISTRY AND PEACE OUT
Great vid Lamont. Had pleasure of visiting Nashville and Memphis couple weeks ago made a stop in dyess Arkansas and visited Johnny cash childhood home. It was fantastic
Hello from Hendersonville tn There are so many cool places and forgotten grave sites here There is one down maple street you turn by KFC and it's behind the buildings to the right of KFC ....and there is another one ..next to cash saver grocery to the right ...and mt.olive cemetery in Nashville and the Nashville cemetery...hope you have enjoyed our little town...glad to see you come this way
Great job, as per. Loved all of their music, even those before my time. Conway Twitty bought a home in my Hometown. I never met him, but hear he was salt of the Earth! June and Johnny Cash has to be my favorites. Thank you, Lamar!
My uncle traveled with Merl haggard back in the 80s for a year.. My Aunt and Uncle also knew Marty robbins, I lf I could post a photo on here I could show you many photos of my Uncle hung out with including Jeanie...
Thank You so much! I Love Johnny, June and her whole family. Yes that man loved June Carter. He actually did have a crush on her as a child because she was a child performer with The Carter Family. Their love story is simply amazing. I wish they would make a movie about The Original Carter Family and Maybelle and her girls including June. If not for them, Country music wouldn't hardly exist at least not be as great as it is today. They are truly under appreciated as The Amazing Artist's They Are.. Thanks again for remembering them as well. I'm not truly sure where Sara and AP Carter are buried but I'd love to see their graves as well. They were the other two people in The Original Carter Family with Mother Maybelle. I want to think Sara might be in CA with her 2nd husband but AP is no doubt near his children. They were singers too. Joe Carter and i can't remember the girl's name. If you get a chance that is. Love your work. Always respectful and informative. Take Care... ❤
I hear the train ah comin Rollin' round the bend I ain't seen the sunshine since I don't know when. Stuck in Folsom Prison , and time keeps draggin' on......
I missed your video’s. I’ve been soooo busy taking care of my husband. I really enjoy your video’s and they really helps me with my depression. I think it’s your voice cause it’s soooo very calm. Is there a way where I could donate to your channel? I would really love to help you continue to bring wonderful content for us because I know you travel to different States to make your video’s. I’m sending love, peace, good health, happiness and much success to you all!! 🤍😘
Most of them I don't know that well, expect for Johnny and June Cash. Good to know to relive the history, and I wouldn't mind checking out on youtube. Thanks for the vlogging.
Love your channel Lamont..been following since the beginning..seems your subscription goes up another thousand daily or every other day..I share your stuff on Facebook and have told family and friends about it..my favorite channel on UA-cam..I watch daily
This brings back a lot of memories from the Grand Old Opry on The Nashville Network. It came on at 830pm eastern on Saturday evenings. TNN was really a terrific television network. It's a real shame that the network went away. When June Carter and Johnny Cash got married it was like a merger. Two legendary entities getting together if I can put it in a business sense. And when Mr. Roy Acuff was on the Opry you were in the presence of true royalty. When Mr. Acuff spoke, people listened. I truly miss those days.
Awesome video! I haven't always been a country music fan, I grew up having to listen to it. My Mom and Step father were huge fans, so I was exposed to a lot of it. My son is a fan, so I can't get away from it. So, I've learned to love country music, although I tend to like 70's country music.
Mae Boren Axton's son Hoyt Axton wrote the song "Joy to the World" most known for being performed by Three Dog Night. He also was the father who got a Mogwai for his son in the movie Gremlins.

He also wrote Steppenwolf's song, "The Pusher."
Played Alec's father in The Black Stallion.
Ms. Mae was a very good friend of mine. And I was always in awe of the stories she told. What a wonderful person.

@Wayne Micah yup, have been watching on Instaflixxer for since november myself :D
My dad was a country musician.. I grew up listening to many of these people. Thanks for this one, Lamont.
Oh cool beans you lucky lady.
Lamont is the best googler ever
Mine was too. The weekends were fun around our house...
@@billyk... Brings back so many memories. My mom played bass & we all sang. Kind of had confused parents when we went nuts for the Beatles. ( I was 6). There were 5 of us kids & all of us were singers & musicians!
Ur lyin whats his name @renee
Johnny Cash is the man, absolute legend.
And his voice was heaven sent
Never could stand him!
@@alextepe4309 :
I'll never forget Johnny Cash when he appeared on Columbo.
One of my favorite singers on one of my favorite T.V. shows.
Johnny cash is the absolute best musician of all time in my eyes ❤️
How do you do, my name is Sue! Johnny Cash. Loved that song!
I love old country music. Hello my friends who see this be safe and God bless you. Lamont. I appreciate you buddy I love you. Thanks for all you do
WOW JUST WOW I grew up listening to some of these legends thanks to my grandpa
Thank you for memorializing Sheb Wooley. He an my Dad grew up together and remained good friends for their lifetimes. He would visit us in Alaska where he came up with the character "Ben Colder". He was a great guy. Have been meaning to visit Sheb but unable to. Again, thank you!
Shelby Wooley was also known as "Sheb Wooley." He sang "Purple People Eater."
"I told you I was sick". Classic.
Hey what's up Lamont you are so freaking awesome telling us about these Legends!! 💯💞 Rest In Peace to all You!👼💐🙏

That's a fun memory
Wow! What fantastic memories
Worth it
Awesome
The ticket probably would only cost $2.50 in those days as well.
Thanks so much for doing this. I am a huge Johnny Cash fan and love performing his songs.
It was so nice to see all those flowers in that graveyard
Oh, Lamont..............Had I had known you going to be in Hendersonville, I would have made a nice home cooked meal for you. A hot shower too. Stay safe. Loved your video! Blessings!!
Merle Kilgore was not Ferlin Husky. Born in Oklahoma, raised in Shreveport LA. He was a song writer, singer and Hank Williams Jr's manager.
Johnny Cash and June Carter. . .Two of my favorite Country Singers among many others resting in Tennessee's Cemeteries. RIP 🙏
Hey Lamont. Love when you showed Johnny Cash. Please be safe out there
My uncle is burried there. He worked for Peterbuilt. Sure do miss. ""Uncle Frog"" RIP all burried in that beautiful place. Thanks Lamont for sharing. Love and peace

Awesome video! Conway Twitty and Johnny Cash "The Man In Black" were two of my favorites!
I loved this. Seeing all those entertainers of that era reminds me of my Dad.
Same here.
I love the song- On the Wings of a Dove! Johnny and June Carter Cash were great!
Love Country Music 😀👏🤗
Very nice content 🎸🎺🎷🎼
May their Souls Rest In Peace 🙌🙏🎸🎼
The gravestone of Jean Shepherd was surprising but it is true don't wait until someone dies to say how much you care. Thanks for sharing your videos.
"I told you I was sick." Hilarious. Jean Shepard with the real.
Love it!
One you missed was Billy Walker. He tragically died in a car accident with his wife Bettie and 2 of his band members in Alabama. By the grace of God his grandson survived.
Billy Walker is buried at Spring Hills Cemetery
@@emilysawyer6877 thanks for the information. He is my favorite singer and I hope to visit his grave someday.
When you turn into Spring Hill Roy Acuff is there. His tombstone has a fiddle on it.
Johnny Cash was a legend one of my Dads fave singers thanks Lamont
Mr Lamont, thank you for making this video. My parents were great fans of country music, so I grew up with it. Watching this video was like my childhood flashed before me. Sweet memories Ive forgotten about. Thank you for making me remember 🙏🏼❤️
Sheb Wooley appeared in the classic western film high noon which I’ve visited in one of my videos.
Subbed to your channel. Love history! 🥰
Love both your channels, Lamont! Thanks for being a great entertainer who also spreads awareness to these cases by sharing them.
He has another channel too?! 😳
What's his other channel?
What's his other channel please?

@@ardensinn6004 yep...thank you...I knew something was off...so young when it came out yet so popular! ☮
Wow, all of these people were legends! May they all rest in Heaven.
Ty for showing Johnny Cash he was my hero still is. You right noone will take place of Johnny Cash or any of the legendary singers of 50s to 90s
There will never be another Johnny Cash and Roy Orbison.
I completely agree. The only one that comes close to them is Chris Stapleton.
look up johnny trouble. he literally sound like johnny cash ..your welcome
There will never be another Big Rooster 🐓

Stuck in Folsom Prison , and time keeps draggin' on......
I spend the evening watching your videos on TV. Love them!
OK, Now I want to hear the Helena Arkansas story.
Right.. that is my hometown lol
I do too!!!
Thank You Lamont for this video. All of them are true Legends.
Johnny Cash died of a broken heart 💔.
I honestly believe that June was his soul mate.
@@ModeneGunch1 They were, June was a Cancer and Johnny was a Pisces. Very, very compatible.
That is so true. He was devastated by the loss of his love June.
Yes I truly believe that
Most long married couples die within a short time of the other especially the men.
This place is a Goldmine Uncle 💯Great visit!
Conway twitty real name was Harold loyd Jenkins.
Great content as always!!! Would love to see you visit the graves of stevie ray vaughn and Dimebag Darrell.
They have redone John and June Cash's grave since I loved in Hendersonville.
Lamont you did such a nice job on this! Thank you!
Thanks again Lamont keep up your great work 👍 💯🙏🇺🇲🇯🇲
