Hi Jay, You are the second person to tell me that, and I believe she was the #1 naysayer in the NY press on that show. I have read somewhere that they had a good crowd that was very receptive to the show, and enjoyed it very much. Regards, Don --Previous Message-- : : : --Previous Message-- : To All, : Our radio friend, Mr. Bucks Braun pointed : out the fact today that on his show that on : Nov 29th 1961, the Grand Old Opry stars hit : New York City's famed Carnegie Hall stage to : show their Country stuff to the Downtown : crowd. Jim was on the show in tux, with : Grandpa Jones, Patsy Cline, Ernest Tubb, : Bill Monroe, Minnie Pearl and possibly : others. I heard they did pretty good, but : they had some neysayers pan them before the : performance. Anyone know anymore about it? : Sure wish they would make a recording of : that show available, if there was one. : : Regards, : Don :Hi Don, : : I've heard that a famous columnist in New : York gave a very detrimental review of this : show. Her name I remember was Dorothy : Kilgallen. I suppose she thought New Yorkers : weren't ready for some good country music. : : Jay Perry : :
