Where is that one from, Tim?   :)

Kerr's .....forget which.

Also in Ryan's.  For some reason that tune often plays in my head.

Supposedly, "Hunter's of Kentucky" is based on that tune.

Also the Unfortunate Miss Bailey

That's right, Wes.  That slipped my mind but you may have cited the original version.  One has to use imagination a bit to get it to Alley Crocker but the three titles are tied together in the same "tune family".
