Eddie Stubbs started the show by
introducing the guests. "From Nashville, Tennessee,
the country music capital of the world and home of the
air castle of the south, it is time for The Marty
Stuart Show featuring Marty Stuart, the Rolls Royce of
country singers Miss Connie Smith, the ole Tennessee
Slicker Leroy Troy, along with all the Fabulous

Stinson, the Apostle Paul Martin, plus Gary Carter on
the steel guitar. And today's special guests, The
Tennessee Mafia Jug Band, along with Mark Jones, and
H. D. Ainsworth. Join us now for 30 minutes of fun and
great country music. I'm Eddie Stubbs. Now, how 'bout
a Superlative welcome for our host. Here is Marty
Stuart." Marty and His Fabulous Superlatives performed
"Johnny Reb."
Marty said, "I'm Marty Stuart. Thank
ya for comin' to see us here at The Marty Stuart Show.
Superlatives? I just don't know, do you? Handsome
Harry said, "I have no idea." Marty said, "I don't
know either. It's big. The only thing I can tell ya is
here they come. Handsome Harry." Harry said "Yes."
Marty continued, "The big pulpwood truck was not in
the parking lot this mornin'." Harry said, "Really."
Marty said, "Saw the jail house bus." Harry said, "Oh,
no." Marty said, "Must mean one thing. It's The
Tennessee Mafia Jug Band. Here they come." The band
comes on stage and Marty walks over to them. He says,
"All right sir. Leroy. Mikey, Ernest, Lester, Mike
Webb, and Dan Kelly. Hello Jug Band." The band said,
"Hey Marty." Marty said, "Lester." Lester said, "Yes
sir." Marty continued, "Come up here. Can't help but
notice you brought a friend along today." Lester said,
"I would call him a friend. Yes." Marty said, "What's
the story?" Lester said, "Well, we got a little
sidetracked down in Springhill, Louisiana." Marty
said, "Oh, so this is a supervised visit." Lester
said, "You might call it that." Marty said, "Well all
right. How 'bout a hand for all the Jug Band. Looks
like you oughta be on your best behavior today. Go
ahead." The Tennessee Mafia Jug Band performed "Katie
Daley."
Marty said, "That's The Tennessee
Mafia Jug Band. On their best behavior. They did
pretty good, Officer." Officer H. D. Ainsworth gave a
thumbs up. Eddie said, "We're so glad The Tennessee
Mafia Jug Band was able to get out for a few hours on
work release to be with us today, and it was great to
hear them do 'Katie Daley'. Thank you fellas." Eddie
promoted Connie's CD boxed set Just For What I Am.
After a commercial break, Marty said, "Hey, hey.
Welcome back, everybody. Cous. Comin' to
us courtesy of the Springhill, Louisiana
jail, how 'bout a hand for The Tennessee Mafia Jug
Band and the good heart of Officer H. D. Ainsworth.
Nice shoes there, Mike Webb. Good good with
stripes. Thank you. You know what Jerry Lee
Lewis said. 'He's walkin' in my tracks, but he can't
fill my shoes. Keep that in mind. And keep this in
mind. We sure do need some beauty on this stage right
now, don't you think? Here she comes. How 'bout a hand
for the great Connie Smith. Don't look over there too
long. It'll blind you. It's like lookin' at the sun.
Hey Cous." Connie sang "If I'd Left It Up To You."
Marty said, "Send that back to California
to that fella named Haggard." Marty walked over to The
Tennessee Mafia Jug Band. He said, "Connie did good,
didn't she? Yes sir. " Some one from the band said,
"Made Mikey cried." Marty said, "Yeah, Mikey cried.
That's right. Officer, so far so good with the boys?"
Officer Ainsworth said, "All is well." Marty said,
"All is well. Well, this will take it right in the
other direction. There is absolutely no explanation
for this song. Dan Kelly." They performed a song Marty
wrote called "Visine."
Marty said, "Oh yeah." After a
commercial break, Marty said, "Glad ya could join us again.
Thank you very much. Leroy." Leroy said, "Yeah." Marty
continued, "We have a special guest with The Tennessee
Mafia Jug Band." Leroy said, "We sure do. An ole
Goodlettsville, Tennessee boy." Marty said, "That's
right. We're talkin' country music royalty." Leroy
said, "That's right." Marty continued, "Grandpa and
Ramona's little boy, Mark Jones. Hello Mark Jones."
Mark said, "Hello Marty." Marty said, "Play the family
anthem, would you?" Mark said, "All right." Marty
said, "Kick it off, son." Mark said, "I will." They
performed "Mountain Dew."
Eddie said, "An enduring old-time
classic there. 'Mountain Dew' with Leroy Troy,The
Tennessee Mafia Jug Band, and Mark Jones. We do hope
that next Sunday, you and yours will make the time to
attend the church of your choice. Here's a song now
that Marty Stuart and Handsome Harry Stinson wrote
which is included in the Souls' Chapel gospel
album the group did. We call on the quartet now to
sing 'There's A Rainbow At The End Of Every Storm'."
After a commercial break, Eddie
promoted Leroy Troy's CD, The Old Grey Mare.
Eddie said, "And now, let's get back to our host,
Marty Stuart, along with Cousin Kenny, all The
Superlatives, and Officer Ainsworth." Marty said, "And
how 'bout a hand for our man, Eddie Stubbs. Did good.
Officer Ainsworth." Officer Ainsworth said, "Yes sir."
Marty continued, "Thank you for comin' to us." Officer
Ainsworth said, "Thank you." Marty said, "All the way,
bringin' the boys from Springhill, Louisiana. And we
have a nice announcement to make. Superlatives? We've
been negotiatin' with all the folks down in
Springhill, Louisiana, and the officer is going to go
as light on the boys over here as he can; and at the
end of it, he's gonna go out on the road and be their
road manager. How 'bout that. The boys' wives and mama
will be proud. Thank you, Officer Ainsworth." Officer
Ainsworth said, "Thank you, sir." Marty said, "How
'bout a hand for Officer H. D. Ainsworth. Cous?" Kenny
said, "Yeah." Marty said, "I don't know of a song that
could fit the occasion any better than 'You Can't
Judge A Book By Looking At The Cover'. Here's Cous."
Marty said, "Cousin Kenny told it
like it was. Yes, yes, yes. You can't judge a book by
lookin' at the cover. Thank you for comin' to see us
tonight. On behalf of Mark Jones, The Tennessee Mafia
Jug Band, Connie Smith, Officer Ainsworth, Eddie
Stubbs, Gary Carter, and all The Superlatives, I'm
Marty Stuart sayin' thank you for comin'. See ya again
