Big E's residence in the 1960's

[Ron Hogan]

Here is the house that Buddy lived in here in Nashville from 61 to 66. At this span he left Tubb, went to work with Price. You can imagine some of the great tunes recorded at this time, such as Night life. If that house’s wall's could talk.
He also recorded his ideas for the Jazz album demos to get the label interested.
It is actually in Madison,TN which is a superb of Nashville and where Sho-Bud got its start. Many stars lived in that area at the time and they drifted off to the Hendersonville area north. Don Helms showed me Price’s house down the street from his in Hendersonville.
The houses are dwarfed now by the mansions now a days in Brentwood and Franklin, TN where the new "stars" live.

It's amazing to see the modest means some of the greats lived by. Today everyone has to build a castle. Thanks for posting Ron.

Nice looking home!

Modest? Looks like a quite decent place for a 24-year old guy to move in to, even by today's standards.

A lot of these houses were much better built than the ones today, not as much wasted space. I lived in one like that one and it was nice.

Definitely a modest house, even for early 60’s. Not a place where you’re going to raise a crop of kids, but great for raisin’ the dickens! And I agree that it looks like a very well built and practical starter. Funny; front steps but no sidewalk to the driveway. Probably has a basement, where business took place….

A few houses down, to the left, is a similar house that has been added on to.
