George Morgan - Candy Kisses

[@88TigerEye]

I was privileged to work with George and Little Roy in 1974. I loved working with him. He was one of the funniest people I ever met. I wouldn't take anything for the experience. He was a wonderful singer and showman. We had a lot of fun off stage talking about events of the past. He deserves his place in the Hall of Fame.

This was the song that became me and my dad's favorite in the early 60's, we would sit outside in the evening, dad would play guitar and we would sing this over and over. I must have been 3 or 4 years old :-) So wonderful to find this old country gem!

[@robine3749]

Love it! I did the same with my daddy when i was 3-5💞 😀☺

[@andreakessler4241]

My Grandaddy sang this song to me all the time growing up. I never realized it was a real recorded song until the late 80’s, when I was in high school and after he had passed away. So glad I was able to find this song on here, to listen to, and bring back all those wonderful memories. Love you Grandaddy.....❤️

[@semicoughman468]

Mr. Morgan's voice in itself is the main instrument and I love this version. There is a great tribute to him and Mel Tillis by their daughters Lorrie and Pam's version of her father's Burning Memories. Just sweet as they could sing them. God Bless

[@maldelus]

I had the privilege of seeing and listening to George Morgan at the Nashville East in Oceana, VA in the early 1970's.

[@HMJohnsonGuitar]

Wow, I remember that club and I would never imagine him working that room. That's interesting!

[@shirleyevans6775]

Great song and a great voice. This song has a lot of memories.

[@chelseapatterson7676]

This song was written about my grandma

[@chelseapatterson7676]

This song was written about my grandmother! 💓

[@daenawinston7397]

I did my first tap dance to routine to this song in 1984 (or '85?).

[@nathanvandehei9156]

Liar

[@Rowlandph]

One of my mom's favorite songs back in the day...I remember here singing along to it as it played on the radio..and at other times...just siging to herself..

[@maldelus]

One of my absolute favorite George Morgan songs.

[@drakbar5957]

Slow or up tempo, Geo always delivers the sweetest singing. One of Country Music’s best whose work is now being enjoyed by a new generation.

[@roberttomassetti137]

This tune means a lot to me. My uncle Pat use to do this tune. And before George left for Nashville, George uncle and my uncle had played together.

[@NEWTON8770]

GREAT MUSIC,SEE WHERE LORRIE GOT HER TALENT

[@stogashawn4724]

Lorrie Morgan ??? She is a Beautiful Women........

[@pruett124]

there is no question , Sammy Pruett, is the lead guitar player. He is my father

[@bluedream428]

Sandy...I never met your father but his brother Jack was a good friend of mine. Sammy was the best guitarist I ever heard!

[@johnarundel8867]

Absolutely brilliant guitar playing you should be proud

[@Rowlandph]

So glad to get the chance to tell you..I truly enjoy THAT kind of guitar break.FAR more than all the 'sound alike'...'shredding' guitar breaks comeing out of Nashville these days.. Hey!..is your dad still around?...Please tell him I loved his playing...!..

[@AWordofHope]

I had this song in my mind today. My dad used to play the guitar and sing this when I was little ❤

[@DirtyLaundryTrueCrime]

My Grandaddy used to sing me this song. ❤️ Thank you.

[@kathyvanderschans6044]

I love this song such amazing singer ❤❤❤

[@molsmusic1]

Fantastic wonderful voice and great musicians.

[@jerryfranklin7190]

Lots of memory at a time when country music was still searching for a place in the music genre......He helped pave the way for many folks out there today but many of them do not know who is is.....very sad.....Great singer!

[@crazymixture57]

That's why I'm proud to say at 21 I know who he is. The first song I've heard of his was his famous "There Goes My Love". Glad my family brought me up old school.

[@terrygrif]

Wonderful! Hadn't heard this great old song for many years. Many thanks for posting. Really enjoyed it. Terry.

[@kandyceevans8327]

My dad use to sing that song to me when I was young. My name is Kandy.🥰

[@TheRcooper2]

I remember this song; heard it as a youngster. Written by George Morgan.

[@stevendewolf4147]

Ik you won’t believe me but my great grandmother originally wrote this song but her dad told her she would never be a singer and wouldn’t give her money to publish it so this guy got a hold of the lyrics and took the credit

[@stevendewolf4147]

If you asked my grandmother she can still sing the exact lyrics of her song at 90yrs old

[@CIorox_BIeach]

This song describes my grandmother perfectly. 🤦‍♀️

[@tafadzwamatamba9836]

Love this song!

[@DavidSmith-kz8lr]

Man I dug the guitar break....cool Jazz lines....Yo!

[@scoobydoabccba123]

i miss these days

[@lovemywolfie]

Love it!

[@johnfleff]

Great job!! … This beautiful song can be played on your “EastTop harmonica" in the key of “C” …. Go ahead and play along with this great song. Eli: "King of Rock & Roll Harmonica"

[@dlsofsetx]

This was originally recorded in 1949.I would consider it possibly the first rock'n roll song.

[@johnjurkewicz9925]

it so great

[@georgeparry4557]

Fantastic solo on lead guitar. 1957 Gibson Super 400 r. guitar

[@ednowaski1460]

are you sure --the head stock isn't as big as it should be for a 400--they are a big as a man's head

[@DavidSmith-kz8lr]

Sam plays a good Jazz ride on a country song..................................!

[@ssheppard4299]

No DNA required! :). I still miss Sammy.

[@macmccuaig2857]

Wow! No t-shirt or ripped jeans; not yelling, can understand the words.

[@Holly1960-]

Nice smooth guitar ride at 1:09

[@pruett124]

Thanks for your kind words. Sammy died of liver failure and Jack just died recently

[@jeffcampbell5755]

I best remember Sammy Pruett from his days as a Drifting Cowboy with Hank Williams.

[@hillbillyboy77]

Pruett was one of the greatest!

[@MelissaPeck-in9tq]

i like country music from the 40s.

[@djcease1996]

Johnny Cash loved this song.

[@LUCKYDUCKIES]

Nice. Very cool. I like Tony Bennett's version too!

[@Marg2239]

I just love Sammy's guitar playing. I also loved Jack's playing. Sammy died so young. Can you tell me what caused his death?

[@dwightb3405]

Remember it well

[@marybullard3555]

I'm eating Halloween candy kisses right now and they taste great my favorite

[@deannaharless4726]

Good song and be is a good singer

[@kayharris3148]

I would like to see george Morgan's wikipedia, country music singer

[@karendevries8219]

Wow

[@garyharris1932]

Sammy Pruitt on lead guitar. His brother Jack worked for Marty Robbins. Notice that neither of the guitarists are using capos. I thought that George wrote this song but I could b wong.

[@markharrison2625]

Just a thought : if you like capo-less guitar playing then go to the Patrus53 channel ; it's a guitarists' nightmare. Good listening !PS : The Bill Haley version of this song is excellent too.

[@Vanspecial]

Humour me. What tv show is this off of? Thanks.

[@fayedavin2381]

I remember

[@semicoughman468]

Here's the title Lorrie Morgan, Pam Tillis,,Candy Kisses , Burning Memories..

[@markwest2603]

💘

[@Randomgaming82]

All I did whas search up how Kisses candy get wrapped? :(

[@hendrendl]

George Morgan was Lori Morgan's dad, & Kieth Whitley's father-law.

[@philipdunn427]

He grew up in barberton ohio like me

[@dreklessonion9487]

He’s my great grandfather

[@summermcgrew1345]

OMGGG my grandma wrote this song a long time ago

[@justincredible8636]

summer mcgrew my great grandma write this song...

[@chelseapatterson7676]

George himself wrote this song about one of his girlfriend's .. which was my grandmother who had just left him for my grandfather.

[@justincredible8636]

Chelsea Suttle what’s your grandmothers name

[@carolmckinney7923]

my dad us sing to me

[@bluedream428]

Sammy Pruett on guitar

[@lizwilliams2368]

bobs birthday song

[@vinylrob6305]

A good song ,but this performance in no way matches the classic sound of his original recording.

[@billbrantley8067]

He has a great voice no doubt. But he’s nowhere as good of a singer as hank Williams Sr or Jr

[@pumpkineckbort8856]

In the words of Unknown Hinson "It takes talent to play country music."
