Doug Poindexter & the Starlite Wranglers were only the fifth or sixth white act ever signed to Sun Records. Heavily influenced by his idol Hank Williams, Poindexter was pure country; in fact, pure hillbilly. The Starlite Wranglers circa 1953-1954 consisted of Bill Black on standup bass, Tommy Sealey on fiddle, Millard Yeow playing steel guitar, Clyde Rush on acoustic guitar, and Scotty Moore on electric guitar, with Poindexter providing the nasal, traditional, country-style singing and strumming a guitar as well.
