I really don't know if there's enough interest pre-1955, but there are some who have suggested tracks from 1954 and 1953.
So what I'm going to do is throw this open now to any year before 1955, as a supplementary/prequel to G's endeavours, for any of you that are historically inclined. Nothing before 1923 please. You have one choice per year, which you should name in a post, don't have to do it in order, and can change your vote at any time you wish. I'll keep a tally of votes in the Canon Archives thread, and will begin by transferring over some suggestions already made.
Here's a 54 while we wait for 63 Nolan Strong and the Diablos - The Wind oooh yes, I'll play! 1954Chordettes - Mr. Sandman I guess I’m leaving Big Joe to someone else. I’ll take this one: Dickie Thompson - Thirteen Women this one from 1953 for me, ray! amazing stuff.

'29 "Waiting for a Train" - Jimmie Rodgers Oh, that's fabulous, never seen the singing brakesman on film before, and loved this song ever since hearing Boz Scaggs' cover.

1954 Lightnin' Hopkins - I'm Wild About You Baby Do you want that instead of the Diablos pick you made in the other thread?

No, I'll keep the Diablos. I thought this was like the thread where you nominated multiple songs. I prefer the Diablos song.
