Skeeters playful character shines through oh how I wished I could have seen her live such a beautiful soul

[@absolutebollox]

@Bobby Bare unfortunately No but if you have any plans to tour the U.K. I’d love to hear about it I gained my love of country and western listening to my dad’s records from the 50s and 60s he’s 86 now and loved it when I showed him this video

[@absolutebollox]

@Bobby Bare I’ve just realised you are 86 the same age as my dad How fantastic you are still staging shows and long may you carry on I love you voice You were a perfect match for Skeeter god bless you and may he rest Skeeters soul up in heaven

Her voice is that good to the point that it's hipnotizing

[@rogersundfors3363]

Wow what a voice, I'm so glad that I found this...

[@MichaelIbiorika]

What a classic!

[@saptono]

Tough less glittered than studio voice, her live voice is more lovely to me.

[@ulexite-tv]

So good live!

[@nabinkumar6]

Wow! I found it at last. I've been looking for this song in live performance for a long time now. Thanks although black & white video but still that Skeeter's voice made me feel so good.

[@shadrackalachu4495]

Forever listening to it.

[@shanehertzog5812]

[@TimoniumGuy]

Loved these two together. Love skeeter

[@glennjohnson8170]

Glenn Johnson I so wish the BBC had these two singing together on the Wembley Country Festival in 1968.Had the audio recorded from the show onto a reel to reel recorder.Back in the 80`s,i was MC at a Hillsider`s show in Sussex.When i first saw this just now on the country music channel on TV,i was hoping it was a clip from the 1968 edition.Anyway,great clip and thanks for this upload.

[@Kenneth.Olsson]

Thank you Glenn.This clip is from 1970.

[@Ozmulki]

Have you ever heard the answer to this "Dear Ann" It rises above!

[@susahg3lis4h]

Not yet. I'd like to listen

[@justintall6736]

Dear John, oh, how I hate to write Dear John, I must let you know tonight That my love for you has died the way like grass upon the lawn And tonight I wed another, dear John. I was overseas in battle when the postman came to me He handed me a letter and I was just as happy as I could be Cause the fighting was all over and the battles have all been won But then I opened up the letter and that started, dear John. Won't you please send back my picture my husband wants it now When I tell you who I'm wedding you won't care dear anyhow And it hurts me so to tell you that my love for you has gone But tonight I wed your brother, dear John. And tonight I wed another, dear John...

[@saptonoistiawan3916]

How different was Skeeter's voice in stage and in the studio. Can this happened just to anybody back then ?
