Who would have thought when Sherley St. Pierre and his wife Theresa formed a small country music band “The Melody Ramblers” in 1953, they started a country music tradition.
These guys were one of the first bands that I played base guitar with when Sherly retired, I think it was 1973 ? First gig was at the Halfway Hotel in Dover Township. Lots of good memories playing with Larry/ Dan & Mark.
