If your under 70 dont bother

One great singer from the 50s has a few songs on this list.

Re: If your under 70 dont bother

That brings back memories of my daughter’s FIL, Galty.
He died two years ago and that song was played when his coffin was carried into the Crematorium and again after the service.

He played the guitar and always started with ‘Hang Down Your Head Tom Dooley”, singing along with it.

Thanks for the memories...

I remember that song - but had not appreciated that it was about an actual murder!

Great song by him of Tom Dooley.

Saw him at a jazz club, Leo's in Windsor, back in the late 50's.
