Joe, Smiley used to record 45s on the Oral Roberts lable,but the hole kept healing up. I've heard it said this new stuff is his finest work ever. Of course I heard it from Smiley himself. Thanks for the heads up on this one. I also heard the cover picture has already been taken and posted here on the forum. So it must be one of three I've seen on here.Maybe we can take a vote as to which one they might use for the cover.What do you think???[This message was edited by Billy Johnson on 20 July 2000 at 02:26 PM.]

Y'all should be nice to Smiley. On second thought, all the pickers I've known that picked on Wheeling are one card shy of a full deck.

Well,....I don't,really,have a record....but,it's a pretty good average!

Well from the buzz I hear around town,the people in the know are saying this piece is gonna go "plywood". Which I also hear will match a steel he has.

Plywood? Now who would make a plywood steel Home Depot? Wouldn't it have to be termite protected?

Preparation "H" is good for people who are losing their hair. so seys Smiley. It doesn't grow hair but it shrinks your head so what you have left fits.

I cut one of my albums on the old "Basement" label.

It was a real big cellar!

One more reason to purchase tickets to
Fan Fair. Smiley will have a booth at Fan Fair this year. Look for the booth with a phone in it.
(phone booth) He will be autographing those famous forum pictures.

Smiley has chosen two songs that should sell like hot cakes. "Steel Guitar Rag" and Sleepwalk. Says that he gets a lot of request for them.

Are you sure it was albums that Smiley cut?

Smiley couldn't get the booth with the phone in it. That one went to Wynonna. Smiley has one of the blue ones that has the vacant/occupied signs on it.
