Hank Snow sold over 100 albums and 700 copies. His songs were about trains and travelling rather than cheating and lying. What was his nickname?

Hank Snow - Yodelling Ranger "The yodelling ranger" Hank Snow later changed his moniker to "the singing ranger" when his flexible tenor slipped to a baritone, but on these early recordings he still had quite a yodel. http://www.cfrb.com/album/245912/overview http://www.jr.com/JRProductPage.process?Product=4022326 Nov 25 07, 10:57 AM

I think the "700 copies" is a typo or something. I believe this is probably what was meant: Hank Snow sold over 70 million records in his career that spanned 78's, 45's, extended 45's, LP's, 8-tracks, cassettes and compact discs. http://www.countrypolitan.com/bio-hank-snow.php From the same site: "The man known as Hank, the singing Ranger, made his way down South and had his first appearance at WWVA Jamboree in 1945. Here he acquired his trained horse Shawnee, whose tricks and daredevil stunts with Hank endeared them to audiences." Nov 25 07, 10:39 PM
