Ernest Dale Tubb (February 9, 1914 – September 6, 1984), nicknamed the Texas Troubadour, was an American singer and songwriter and one of the pioneers of country music. His biggest career hit song, "Walking the Floor Over You" (1941), marked the rise of the honky tonk style of music. In 1948, he was the first singer to record a hit version of "Blue Christmas", a song more commonly associated with Elvis Presley and his mid-1950s version. Another well-known Tubb hit was "Waltz Across Texas" (1965) (written by his nephew Quanah Talmadge Tubb (Billy Talmadge)), which became one of his most requested songs and is often used in dance halls throughout Texas during waltz lessons. Tubb recorded duets with the then up-and-coming Loretta Lynn in the early 1960s, including their hit "Sweet Thang". Tubb is a member of the Country Music Hall of Fame.
Tubb was born on a cotton farm near Crisp, in Ellis County, Texas (now a ghost town). His father was a sharecropper, so Tubb spent his youth working on farms throughout the state. He was inspired by Jimmie Rodgers and spent his spare time learning to sing, yodel, and play the guitar. At age 19, he took a job as a singer on San Antonio radio station KONO-AM. The pay was low so Tubb also dug ditches for the Works Progress Administration and then clerked at a drug store. In 1939 he moved to San Angelo, Texas and was hired to do a 15-minute afternoon live show on radio station KGKL-AM. He drove a beer delivery truck in order to support himself during this time, and during World War II he wrote and recorded a song titled "Beautiful San Angelo".

Plot: Based on and built around the west coast radio program, "The Hollywood Barn Dance", although no members of the 1947 cast of the program are in the film, but the better-known (on a national scale) Ernest Tubb and His Texas Troubadors, Jack Guthrie and Jimmy and Leon Short more than make up for that. The slight plot, around 18 songs, begins with Tubb and his band searching for $2000 needed to rebuild their town chuch after it burned down while they were rehearsing in it. Hollywood, here they come.

Dallas native Leon Rhodes began his professional music career in 1948, at age sixteen, when he joined the staff of the Big D Jamboree. In the 1950s he recorded with Lefty Frizzell and Ray Price, among others, and worked as a drummer, guitarist, and vocalist on the local club scene. In 1960 Ernest Tubb hired Rhodes to play electric lead guitar in his band, the Texas Troubadours. The lineup that included Rhodes, steel player Buddy Charleton, bassist Jack Drake, drummer Jack Greene, and front man Cal Smith worked under Tubb for nearly five years and are regarded as his greatest band. Rhodes spent almost seven years with Tubb, leaving in 1966. During their time together the group recorded numerous instrumental tunes including the Rhodes-penned "Honey Fingers," which became his nickname. After...
After listening to Ernest Tubb presents The Texas Troubadours and Johnny Wiggins doing his best Dave Dudley i got interested in Wiggins because he sang it so well. Turns out he really could sing and I think he's much better than a lot of guys who had record deals at the time. On the other two songs here he sings in his natural style (He was diggin' kind of deep for Dudley),, and has a Billy Walker - Hank Snow combo thing going. If you stop and think about the amount of talent on that damn bus...........

Just give me one more memory that's all I ask of you
To see you once again would mean a lot to me
We'll pretend I'm just a friend that you once knew
So please be there and give me one more memory
Now hello darling, I'm just passing through this way
Thought I'd call you up, I haven't long to stay
If you'll meet me in our same old meetin' place
I promise you that I won't speak of yesterdays
Just give me one more memory [unverified]
Now I respect the choice you made so long ago
And if you're happy dear that's all I need to know
I'm not here to cause you any misery
But if I could see you, I'd have one more memory
Just give me one more memory [unverified]
