DESCRIPTION:
This comes from a Bill Mack radio show and has Marty singing one of his idol Gene Autry's songs 'Nobody's Darlin But Mine.' Many other artists have recorded this song, Tex Ritter, Slim Whitman, Merle Haggard, Webb Pierce, Eddy Arnold, The Louvin Brothers, Frank Ifield and Leona Williams amongst others. Marty never recorded this Jimmie Davis penned song and I hope former Governor Davis did actually write it as apparently he didn't after all write 'You Are My Sunshine', but bought it off of somebody else. You can check it out on Wikipedia thus 'He is associated with several popular songs, most notably "You Are My Sunshine," which was designated an official state song of Louisiana in 1977. He claimed that he wrote the song while attending graduate school at LSU, but research indicates he bought it from another performer Paul Rice, who had recorded it with his brother Hoke, who recorded together as the Rice Brothers under Paul Rice's name. The practice of buying songs from their composers was a common practice during the 1930s through the 1960s. Some writers in need of cash often sold tunes to others.'
