His rendition of the 1946, Merle Travis song, became the fastest selling single in recording industry history up to that time (1955). The song would lead the US charts for eight weeks before claiming the top spot on the UK charts for four weeks early in 1956. On March 25th, 2015, it was inducted into the Library of Congress’s National Recording Registry.
To say this song is great, would be an understatement!
