Hey Charles !
Seeing this post reminded me. Several years ago I was in the studio recording. And the Platters came in and recorded among other things a version of achy breaky heart.
I hated that song after playing it for years. But the version they did was really KOOL! I can't remember now how many original members were left at that time.Man you talk about sing!! They could flat out sing!! |

| I think David Sanderson wanted to suggest this song to Mr. Hartley as an instrumental for steel. |

| Me too Charles. If one of them did this, it should include background vocals and a string section. |
