''Country Hoedown'' was a Canadian country music television series which aired on CBC Television from 1956 to 1965. ==Premise== Gordie Tapp hosted the series and also performed in sketches portraying characters such as Cousin Clem which he later reprised for ''Hee Haw''. King Ganam and his band, the Sons of the West, were featured from the initial years of the series. Ganam's band included Tommy Hunter who later starred in his own CBC series. Performers frequently seen on the series included Al Cherney, Tommy Common, Johnny Davidson, Mary Frances, Pat Hervey and Wally Traugot. Lorraine Foreman and the Hames Sisters came from the ''Pick the Stars'' series. Gordon Lightfoot was at one point a member of the Singing Swinging Eight, the programme's square dance singing ensemble. The Country Hoedown orchestra was led by Lloyd Cooper. Episodes began with the song "Come Right In. It's Country Hoedown time", then Tapp's welcome message, "Hi there, friends and neighbours." The concluding song, featuring the whole cast, was "Love is the Only Thing". 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Country Hoedown」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
