bnt Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 Well, Gene Watson and Ralph Stanley are real country musicians, and Stanley did appear on the O Brother Where Art Thou soundtrack, singing [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VoIebIKNS4s"]"O Death"[/url]. But I have no idea what that "Harmony H" bass is... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bassassin Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 (edited) Oh how we lol'd. What the hell does he think that piece of crap is? When I first read it I thought the whole thing was a wind-up, but I Googled the luminaries who are alleged to have scrawled on this piece of trash and they do/did appear to have existed: [url="http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&q=Dr+Ralph+Stanley%2C+Gene+Watson&btnG=Google+Search&meta="]http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&q...earch&meta=[/url] So does he [i]seriously[/i] think this thing was made in the UK in 1955? What - didn't he ever go in Woolies in the 70s?

[/quote]He [i]produced[/i] it, but there were a lot of different musicians on there, and Ralph Stanley was one of them. I just read that Stanley's version of "O, Death" for the movie won him a Grammy award, "Best Male Country Vocal Performance". Ah niver knew thar was such uh fing!
