Who really wrote Chattanoogie Shoe Shine Boy?

According to Michael Kosser of American Songwriter magazine the real author of 'Chattanoogie Shoe Shine Boy' is Fred Rose. The song was published by Acuff-Rose and Fred Rose gave his songwriting credit to Harry Stone. Harry Stone, in turn, shared his half of the songwriting credit with Jack Stapp. I would have liked Michael Kosser to have sited his sources but unfortunately he passed away in 2011. BTW, Jack Stapp and Lew Cowan established Tree Publishing Company in 1951 and eventually it over-took Acuff-Rose as a publishing power (in Nashville) to be reckoned with. Eventually, Sony/ATV bought Tree. If you would like to see Michael Kosser's article where he shares this information please use the following link: http://www.americansongwriter.com/2006/09/sonyatv-music-nashville-a-grand-publishing-tradition/ - I don't know about you but I feel the true author(s) should always be given proper credit - otherwise, as an audiophile I feel defrauded. 184.76.56.97 ( talk) 06:34, 12 August 2015 (UTC)JSJR 08112015 reply
