Roy Acuff And His Smoky Mountain Boys – Don't Make Me Go To Bed And I'll Be Good / I'll Reap My Harvest In Heaven

However, the booming economy caused an increasing demand for records and CBS quickly ended their cheap series, including Okeh. From August 1945 hillbilly music was also issued in the popular 35000 series on the red Columbia label. This situation continued until May 1948. During these years Satherley recorded the classic Monroe sides, the first sides of Molly O'Day, Texas Ruby and the Bailes Brothers amongst others.
Between August 1945 and May 1948 a total of 425 hillbilly records were issued in the 35000 series on the red Columbia label. During the first months these records consisted of new (post-war) recordings of artists like Gene Autry, Roy Acuff, Bob Wills, Al Dexter, Texas Ruby & Curly Fox and Ted Daffan, but quite soon Satherley started using pre-war recordings for his releases. He had to. There was quite some demand for popular pre-war material. Most of the time he reissued recordings of popular artists like Bob Wills, Gene Autry, Roy Acuff and even the Carter Family. But he also reissued pre-war recordings of artists like Hank Penny, Bill Nettles and Bill Cox. The oldest recordings he used were on Columbia 37600, the Leake County Revellers with 1927 recordings.
