	Blogcritics.org: Grandpa Jones, vaudevillian folk music professor
		Louis Marshall Jones was born October 20, 1913 in Niagra, Kentucky.
		He billed himself as "Grandpa Jones" as young as 22 years old, drawing lines on his face to look old, and affecting a "grandpa" look with the wire rim glasses and knee high boots.
		Grandpa Jones was a bright funny guy as beloved among Opry fans as Minnie Pearl.

		The reunion of the original line-up actually took place on an ad hoc basis -- Grandpa Jones and the Delmores were all signed to King and had been flown out to California for recording sessions in the final week of March of 1946, and Travis was one of the session players for Jones's sides.
		Both sides were extraordinary in their deceptively light textures, juxtaposed with the quiet musical and vocal virtuosity of the quartet, and the 78 rpm release was an instant hit.
		By 1952, the core of the group -- Jones and the Delmores -- were working intermittently with an undesignated fourth man, and in the summer of that year, it was the Delmores with Clyde Moody and an unnamed fourth performer.

		Louis Marshall Jones (1913-1998), better known as Grandpa, was the son of Henderson County sharecroppers, but his destiny was the road, not the land.
		A singer, banjo picker, songwriter, and, late in life, television star, Jones was constantly on the move during a musical career of more than 60 years.
		You sound like an old grandpa." He must have felt like one too, because he made the most of the grandpa persona for more than half a century.

	Live - Grandpa Jones
		Grandpa Jones Live captures a concert Jones performed in Cincinnati in 1969.
		Though the album doesn't feature any of his best-known songs, it nevertheless gives a good idea of what Grandpa's shows were like during the latter-half of his career -- filled with traditional tunes, warmth and good times.
		In fact, the record is largely useful as an example of the friendly exchange between old-time country performers and their audiences, since musically Live is only entertaining, not revelatory.

		Bear, not the briar patch!" That feels like what's been going on the past several months while Grandpa Jones and his clan were steadfastly opposing any suggestion of building a new football stadium at Fair Park.
		He said it would not be big enough to do all the stuff Grandpa Jones has promised to build if we will only destroy what's left of our convention business and build him a new stadium on our dime.
		Then, anyone who opposes the sales tax for a new stadium for Grandpa Jones is a racist who doesn't want to see new development and activity in South Dallas -- the Southern Sector.
