JIMMIE RODGERS on Hell or High Water, Sunday 1 p.m. to 2 p.m.
Jimmie Rodgers on Hell or High Water.  Known as the "Singing Brakeman" and 
the "Mississippi Blue Yodeler," Jimmie Rodgers was the first nationally 
known star of country music and a direct influence on many later 
performers, including Hank Snow, Ernest Tubb,Hank Williams, Lefty Frizzell
 and Merle Haggard.  During his short career he fused
hillbilly country, gospel, jazz, blues, pop, cowboy, and folk into 
compositions steeped
in his working class roots, and these songs coupled with Rodgers' distinctive 
yodeling
style endeared him to many.
