[78-L] George Jones

[Erwin Kluwer]

Not exactly main stream country but certainly from the golden age
(of Bluegrass) the great Ralph Stanley( of the Stanley Brothers) is still
goingon  and performing constantly since 1946.Which must be a kind of a
record...

Bobby Osborne is still around, llike Mac Wiseman and a few others.
