Karen, I would also like to welcome you to the forum! I've always liked Homer and Jethro and I'm looking foward to your book! My oldest brother and his wife (now ex-wife) were lucky enough to be invited to Nashville by Chet Atkins in 1967 to attend a Homer and Jethro session at studio B. The songs recorded at this session became the LP "Something Stupid". My brother also got to meet Ray Stevens and Jerry Reed at this session as well. This was just before Jerry had recorded his first LP for RCA. My favorite song by Homer and Jethro has always been "I'm My Own Grandpa", a really funny tune! Do you know if it's available on CD anywhere? I'm having trouble finding it. In answer to Terry's question, Jethro Burns was a brother-in-law to Chet. Once again, Karen, welcome to the forum! You're amongst friends here!
