Apr 25, 2011 - Ok nevermind. Just looked at Wikipedia and they say HE influenced George Jones' vocal style. Works for me.

May 8, 2011 - I wonder if Olivia Newton John new about this song when she sang "Please Mister Please, Don't play B17?"

May 23, 2011 - I must disagree---that is a Teisco del Rey bass. Perhaps they were marketed under the Baldwin name but I owned one and it had the Teisco logo.

Aug 20, 2011 - Rest assured, on the original recordings the basses were upright basses......The players were either Bob Moore, Junior Huskey or Henry Strelecki.......The record producers DID NOT use road musicians on sessions........I was very lucky to be able to play on Jones' sessions on either fiddle or rhythm guitar..........On all Jones' sessions were Pig Robbins, Piano, Bob Moore, Bass, Buddy Harmon, Drums and either Hal Rugg or Sonny Curtis on Steel..........Charlie Justice

Nov 5, 2011 - My favorite Johnny Paycheck song of 'em all! I have to agree, this song sure does "kick major country ass!!" I'd say it has to be nearly the top "Honky-Tonk 'Shuffle Beat' song" of all time! I love it!!

Nov 10, 2011 - Who is the Steel player in this clip?

opryman65 Says:

Nov 29, 2011 - Glen Davis is playing the drums on this clip as well - he later became staff drummer for the Grand Ole Opry (1970s-1990s). Love his version of this song the best

Dec 1, 2011 - Paycheck (Lytle) singing young and hungry doing a Hank Cochran song like no other. You want real music, get his cd " The Little Darlin' Years," Lloyd Greene played the steel on the studio version, and wow, it certainly is a Hall of Fame Classic!

Dec 14, 2011 - I recently discovered Johnny Paycheck...wow. This guy is amazing! He really means it when he sings!! A pure voice, and he maintained to have a superb voice in his old age. It was tough to put down the old violin! Whatever THAT is, he had it deep! Paycheck rules

Mar 7, 2012 - Is this Sonny Curtis who played with the Crickets or only someone who has the same name?

KidDirtbox Says:

May 1, 2012 - you got it backwards. George borrowed from Him

TomEMun Says:

May 19, 2012 - You're right....Johnny was a friend of mine and Jones gives Paycheck credit forhis influence.
