Description

American musician (1918-1992)

Extract from Wikipedia

Herbert Clayton Penny was an American musician who sang and played banjo mainly in the Western swing subgenre of country music. He blended country and western music with dixieland, swing, and most notably bebop jazz styles, earning the nickname “the king of hillbilly bebop”. He also worked as a comedian best known for his backwoods character "That Plain Ol' Country Boy" on TV with Spade Cooley. He was married to country singer Sue Thompson from 1953–63.
