Johnny Horton - All For The Love Of A Girl
ALL FOR THE LOVE OF A GIRL (Description to follow) NOTICE: I was the creator of this video, ALL FOR THE LOVE OF A GIRL. I paid for the music on Amazon.

With them, he had several major crossover hits, most notably in 1959 with "THE BATTLE OF NEW ORLEANS" which won the 1960 Grammy Award for Best Country & Western Recording. The song won the Grammy Hall of Fame Award and in 2001 was named number 333 of the Songs of the Century. In 1960, Horton had two other crossover hits with "SINK THE BISMARK" and "NORTH TO ALASKA". Horton was also a rockabilly singer, and was inducted into the Rockabilly Hall of Fame. Horton was killed instantly while he was returning home from a performance in Austin (Skyline Club) in a head-on collision with a drunk driver on Highway 79 at Milano, Texas. There is no truth to the rumor that Horton was on his way to Dallas to meet actor Ward Bond about a role on the NBC television series Wagon Train. Bond was in Dallas at the time attending a football game. Bond died of a heart attack in Dallas just hours after Horton perished in the vehicular accident. A "Horton" did appear on Wagon Train: the actor Robert Horton, who portrayed the fictitious scout "Flint McCullough." Horton is buried in the Hillcrest Cemetery in Haughton east of Bossier City. He loved fishing as much, if not more, than singing and was once billed as "The Singing Fisherman." His favorite fishing holes abound through the Piney Woods of East Texas and northern Louisiana. ........................................ .................................. Johnny Horton reportedly had experienced premonitions several months before his own death about the possibility of dying in a car crash caused by a drunk driver. He always said that if he was in a head-on situation to drive into the ditch. His accident took place on a bridge so there was no ditch to head for.
