Nigel Womersle Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 16 tons.... tenesee ernie ford singin the blues guy mitchell big john.. who sang that ? i owe my sole to the company store ??? in a monastry garden..? ''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' Jimmy Dean sang 'Big John'. I think 'I owe my soul to the company store' is actually part of 'Sixteen Tons'. Ronnie Ronalde whistled 'In a Monastery Garden'. 'Singing the Blues', was also sung by Tommy Steele. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

echo beach Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 Old enough to remember a lot of Crookes' comprehensive list. The first record I bought ( a 78 rpm in 1955 ) was The Ballad of Davy Crockett / Theme from Robin Hood - remember Richard Todd riding through the glen? That followed seeing the film and my Auntie buying me a coonskin cap from Woolworths for my birthday. Next came April Love by Pat Boone and Perry como's Magic Moments / Catch a Falling Star. I must have been a young romantic in those long gone days! After that in 1957 I bought my first E P - remember them? Elvis' Jailhouse Rock. From that point it was onwards and upwards. All those original records have disappeared over the years. Pity, they might be worth something now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crookes Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 there i was diggin this hole....bernard cribbens what year was that crooksey ? Bernard Cribbins' Hole In The Ground was at number 10 in March 1962 and spent 7 weeks in the top 20. I'm Crookes and have been compiling the lists. There's a Crookesey, but no Crooksey.
