They were really good.
Seems like they never did get their dues after all those years.
He could really belt out them honky tonk songs!!
It was a crying shame they both died penniless.

| I played steel for Carl and Pearl and found them to be true and genuine. Nothing fake or phony about them. They raised Appaloosas and owned a farm called, what else?, Crossover Acres. Pearl died, I believe from thyroid problems; Carl, from a heart attack. Pearl called me and wanted me to work for Little Jimmy Dickens but I did not want to move to Nashville. |

One of those great performers I wouldn't have heard of if I wasn't reading the Forum. Afterwards I bought two albums from E-bay. One features Jeff Newman on steel. Amazing story Mr.Zornes!

Yes sir, that's the definition of True Country Music. Wonder where their holy jeans, and cut off tee shirts are?  |

| They didn't have to write songs about house trailers because they lived in one. |
