Saw him in 1981 in a small hall...he was such a nice guy. RIP, John.

John was cool, he did it his way. I think even if he hadnt made it as big as he did in the business, he would have done it his way anyway. I think he would have been happy with just a banjo, a fiddle, and a steamboat. RIP John.

John and Roy were as good as it gets. Lets all keep them on the back roads by the rivers of our memories, never to be forgotten.

That he was, and I know we'll never see another like him. God Bless him.

Especially when they're able to bring a tap-dance into their expression! Brilliant writer. Brilliant performer

My wife and I stayed at the Hall of Fame Motor Inn at the end of 16th and Roy Acuff drive about 35 years ago. We met John there one morning and you would have thought we had known each other for years.. He was jewell in in a sack of rocks there in Nashville. Too nice of person for that scum business call the "music business". Miss his talent and his love of the music..
