Good tip there Joe to click onto You Tube Funny you should put this on, as we watched a docu on Johnny Cash last night His life from a boy to his passing - saw his daughter and son on there, good it was
Pardon me if this is a segue. I just remembered some years back when I received an email with an attached video that says it is the re-mastered Blue Christmas of Elvis Presley and his daughter Lisa Marie. It was digitally engineered to make it appear that father and daughter are in a duet although the Elvis part is an old one and the Lisa Marie part is a new one. It was really touching to watch that video knowing that the duet was father and daughter. However, when I sent it to my friends, one friend made a rebuttal that the woman is not Lisa Marie but a singer named McBride. I forgot the first name, sorry. Well, it was a disappointment that the label was untrue.
My older Brother was a big fan of Johnny's early music, and had many of his records. I too have become a fan of Johnny's and admire his life and example. He was one of a kind, and had a very unique voice. His Brother Tommy and his Son John Carter, also sing, but I always liked Rosanne, because of her real talent and blossoming music career. She is her Father's Daughter, when it comes to her music.
@Patsy Faye Johnny also wrote "Forty Shades Of Green" in the early 60's and here he sings it with his Daughter, as he nears the end of his life. He took the names from a map of Ireland and "Shalimar" was the name of his Wife June's perfume.
Yes Joe - I recall this on the Irish thread, it is an absolute delight to know of this Its a favourite song but I only knew of the Ruby Murray version which was mighty fine, brings a tear to me eye it does .................... Thank you
There is also the story, of how John Wayne called Glen Campbell, to ask if he could bring his daughter to meet Glen. It seems she was a big fan of Glen. After they met, John called Glen and offered him a part in the movie "True Grit". Glen sang the title song in the movie.
