Abbey Records !


Bud Messner & his Skyline Boys (vocals by Bill Franklin)
Abbey Records # 15004 - 1950
Side A - Slippin' Around With Jole Blon.
Side B - I Died All Over You.

Bill Franklin handles both sides with his smooth and rich vocals backed up by Bud Messner and the boys. Jole Blon the much maligned and sung about lady, here she gets another twist with a slippin' around tale with a heavy tip of the hat to Hank Williams with many of Hanks song titles mentioned in every line. 
This record is cool, cool, cool and shows even in 1950 things were starting to hot up in the hillbilly western world!

1950 unknown – Bud Messner And His Sky Line Boys (Bill Franklin [vcl], Molly Darr [duet vcl*], Norman Earl Bud Messner [rh gt], Bill Bailey [mandolin], Jack Throckmorton [steel], Bobby berne [], Don Adams [] )
