Truck Driver's Queen, by Charlie Moore

[AlanN]

Picked with a bass man from Maggie Valley over the weekend, told me he is kin to Charlie Moore. We sang this number, just a lovely tune.

Ain't got time to shoot the pin ball
Or to get the radar blues.
Gotta keep these big wheels rollin'
Lord, I'm comin' home to you.

[Russ Jordan]

Eddie Lovelace?

Thanks for bringing up that number. It's a Moore and Napier original -- but mandolinist Napier played lead guitar in that duo. When Charlies goes down for that bass note in "...you...", wow! very few can put so much punch into a low note. Charlie Moore's recordings are uneven but well worth a listen.

Eddie Lovelace?

One and the same.

[Bill Foss]

Is this the same song that Jimmy Martin recorded in his heyday? (I ain't got time to shoot the pinball/Or to get the radar blues...)
