Anyone have a copy of "Lets Leave It Alone" that they can email me? Who played steel in Jack Greene's Green Giants band? |

Mike Johnson played in the Green Giants band, too, before moving on to Bill Anderson, Kevin. |

I just saw them on the old broadcast of "Pop Goes The Country". The Green Giants were a smokin country band. I'm trying to get a copy of "Lets Leave It Alone". Great country duet. |

"If It Aint Love(Let's Leave It Alone)" is a Dallas Frazier song, that I believe Connie Smith had the first top ten with it in '72. Then Jack Green & Jeannie Seely put in on their "Two For The Show" album in '73, and I don't have that version. There is a more recent Jeannie Seely version on Amazon for 99 cents, but that is more like the version that The Whites had on the charts in the mid-'80s (with killer dobro by Jerry Douglas). Since The Whites version, it's been done by a few bluegrass groups now, with Michelle Nixon & Drive having it on the Bluegrass Charts about 4 or 5 years ago.
The Whites version is on iTunes, off their greatist hits CD. _________________ http://www.oldbluesound.com/about.htm
