The Family, 1999
Written by Lou Willie Turner, 1951
This song's credit goes to Big Joe Turner's wife, though probably he wrote it and credited her to give her an income stream in the event of his death. Anyway, the song was recorded by honky-tonk duo Johnnie and Jack in 1951. This version is a bluegrass gem, with leisurely banjo and mandolin picking interplay, high nasal tenor vocals, and high harmonies. The Del McCoury Band really just has no close rivals in the bluegrass game.
