Great video. I'm surprised Boxcar never made the high charts regularly.

I loved ol' Boxcar. He kinda' became famous over here more than Stateside. I saw him in Glasgow with Maurice Anderson backing him. I have since spoken to Reece and he remembered the gig. Happy days.

Thank you for that, a good dose of real Country Music and great Steel Guitar.

As Archie says, Boxcar was better known outside the US and better appreciated too, goodtime stuff, I like it.
