You mentioned a seven foot cowboy; My great-uncle, George osborne, regularly played with the Stanley Brothers as a Permenant Guest. He was a Tex Ritter impersonator, and was about 6'6" tall.

I lived in many towns in southwest Virginia in the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s before entering military service in 1954. I was a regular listener to Farm and Fun Time on WCYB. The Stanley Brothers was my favorite band. There were others that I would like to know about. What happened to Bonnie Lou and Buster Moore? What about the seven foot cowboy? I don't remember his name. There was a young fellow by the name of Lindy Clear. If anyone can remember these folks, please let me know. You see I missed a lot after I left the area. I spent more than twenty-one years active duty with the military and now I'm living in Vermont. Thanks for listening.

Could have been him. I just can't remember his name. Thanks
