Yet another song mystery

[Soul]

Ok, so this one has no major lyrics, he just keeps saying names of famous western people. (I think), he does hums and yeahs a lot.

The main words are something like this: From the memphis ? ,to the country blues ?.

The song was released in the mid 90's and it's a fusion of country music and dance music.

Any ideas anyone?

Thanks in advance

Not Cotton-Eyed Joe by Rednex, was it?

Re: Yet another song mistery

No, that's not it.
Cotton eye joe was catchy at the time, but it played so much on the radio that after a while I just could not stand listening to it anymore.

Anyways, the one I'm looking for was released later than that, around 96-97.

Re: Yet another song mystery

I dont know who originally sang it, and I cant find the radio dancey 90s version (but there definately was one, along with a bunch of more hardcore ravey versions) cause i dont know who made that either, so i have gone with a more original/classic version. Was it Walking in Memphis:
YouTube - Marc Cohn - Walking In Memphis (Early Live)

Am I right, Do I get a prize??

No, that's not it either.
I know that song, and i know cher also sang it.

The song I'm looking for has no majpor lyrics, just names of famous western people, like Jimmy rogers, and ? Walker.

It's cowboy music with a twist of dance music.

But thank you...

Alabama 3?

Re: Yet another song mystery

Alabama 3?

No, i don't think that's it... they sing western Rock/Coutry.

I'm looking for a Dance/Disco Song.

But thanks guys, keep the ideas coming.

Re: Yet another song mystery

Not true.
I'm not saying it is them, just throwing in suggestions, but
Alabama play countryish rock
Alabama 3 (totally different group) play Techno/Dance with a country favour

Re: Yet another song mystery

Only song I can think of that mentions both Memphis & Jimmie Rodgers is Alahnah Myle's Black Velvet..
but its not that either

[Soul]

Re: Yet another song mystery

I'll research Alabama 3 a bit more, because it seems to me like it's the closest one to it. Maybe one of their songs was remixed into a ravey song, and that's what I heard on the radio.

Re: Yet another song mystery

I am sure this is "Legends" by Sacred Spirits. It goes like this "From the memphis grooves .... to the country blues again" and in between some names of musicians...
