Contest Solution 1 Who Am I? Answer: "Jethro Burns"

Following are the original clues for this contest:

Clue #1: I performed in a duet where we did song parodies...similar to what Weird Al Yankovich does today...
Clue #2: When I was just a kid, I played in speakeasies throughout Knoxville.
Clue #3: Even though I donned hayseed garb, and, yes, performed some Yankovich-style parodies by chopping up popular songs, I was known as an accomplished jazz musician.
Clue #4: I eventually joined up with Ken and wrote for Mel.
Clue #5: I was known for playing songs such as: "Mama, Get the Hammer (There's a Fly on Papa's Head)."
Clue #6: I served as an infantryman in the Pacific during World War II which was the only non-musical work I ever performed.
Clue #7: I went on in later in my career to focus on writing some instructional material.
Clue #8: I played with the “Million Dollar Band” on Hee-Haw during the ‘80s...headed up by Chet Atkins and Roy Clark.

Steve Goodman once said of Jethro, "I never heard him play or say anything that wasn't the very thing that everyone else in the room wished they had played or said." How did he do it? His special skill was to mix equal parts mischief and genius. (While keeping his tongue firmly in cheek at all times!). A large part of his appeal can be summed up in his philosophy of "No matter where you go, there you are!"
