 Jimmie Rodgers might be known for hits like "Honeycomb" and "Kisses Sweeter Than Wine", but he had a lesser known hit that brought him to American Bandstand in June 1964.

Rod McKuen wrote "The World I Used to Know". An interview with host Dick Clark follows:


Rodgers would record the theme to ABC's 1965 drama, The Long, Hot Summer. This is posted in memory of Rodgers, who passed away on Monday.
