He was best known for recording the original version of "This Should Go On Forever", and his part in the vibrant swamp blues and pop scene in Louisiana in the 1950s and early 1960s.
[4] He formed a group called the Swing Masters, and was later introduced to King Karl (born Bernard Jolivette).
"Guitar Gable had been playing jobs with some little guy out of Lafayette," Karl recalled to swamp pop historian Shane K. Bernard.
They backed musicians such as Lazy Lester, Classie Ballou, Skinny Dynamo, Bobby Charles and Slim Harpo.
The song was recorded in March 1957 and was originally released that year as the B-side to his debut solo single, "I Got Love if You Want It".
The follow-up release included the swamp pop classic, "Irene", which later influenced Jimmy Clanton's "Just A Dream".
[5] Gable and Karl left Miller and Excello in disgust, and were reduced to issuing work on the much smaller labels of La Louisianne and Tamm into the early 1960s.
