Don Gibson Sings 'I Thought I Heard You Calling My Name.'
One time duet partner of Marty Robbins, Lee Emerson wrote this sad country ballad. It was first a hit for Porter Wagoner and recently there have been versions by George Strait and Jessi Colter. I think it's a great song which Don Gibson sings with the right touch of loneliness and despair that the lyric demands. No doubt it's Chet Atkins accompanying him, but I stand to be corrected.
