Several artists were doing a modal, "Appalachian" version of this song in the 1990s. When I found a recording of Hank Snow singing it as originally written -- as a sentimental parlor waltz -- I was eager to present it in that form. This was a one-off performance at the Border Folk Festival. It was recorded outdoors on a camcorder by the late Johnny Ware, and Gene Graham later converted the audio to MP3. I've compressed it and adjusted the EQ. It's still a sow's ear, but you can probably listen to it without getting a nosebleed.
