Burl Ives And Grady Martin And His Slew Foot Five - Diesel Smoke, Dangerous Curves


I remember Big Rock Candy Mountain by Harry McClintock from the movie, O Brother, Where Art Thou?
I'm more familiar with a couple of those songs by other artists:
"Frankie and Johnny" by Mississippi John Hurt
"Going Down The Road Feeling Bad" by Elizabeth Cotten
I love those songs.

My favorite Ives song is Girlie Magazine (in which the song's protagonist sings to his grandkids "don't go telling Grandma/what I read in my easy chair").
