I'm really glad you brought this up because just last week I was listening
to Merle's Jimmie Rodgers tribute LP, and it occurred to me that Merle's
phrasing kinda sounded like the Binger. So, I suppose the next question is:
Has Merle ever covered a song associated with Crosby?
And didn't Crosby record some tracks with Louis Armstrong in the 20's or
30's?
Lance . . .
