And on a lighter note....
folklore? idk, i never lived in chitown. either way, i don't want to meet him. let's hear ol' jamal's take.
Odd that Horton should show up in a basketball forum. He was apparently a very good hoopster with scholarship offers in his day. Further strangeness abounds, as Horton married Hank Williams wife after Hank died in his car. Then he played the same club in Austin that Hank played before he died. Horton apparently thought he was psychic and predicted he would die in a crash with a drunk driver. And then he did.Damn Ozimoto, you beat me to it. This is the song I immediately thought of and was going to post. I remember hearing this song on the radio.
I also remember seeing news reports on TV about Johnny Horton being killed in an automobile accident in Milano Texas in 1960 at the tender age of 35.
"This Land Is Your Land" is one of the United States' most famous folk songs. Its lyrics were written by American folk singer Woody Guthrie
