Evenin'... Rose City Chimes was Ralph Emorys theme song for lots of years. His late night show "Opry Star Spotlight"was a fav of mine growing up and the Rose City Chimes was/is really pleasing to my ear. Jimmy and Tater Tate played it twin fiddles a lot...Tater could sure hear the harmony parts on the fiddle. Was it Big Jim Vest that played the Rose City Chimes,Mikey ?
