i am aware of Louisiana Hayride, only for the fact that im a big elvis fan, and know he appeared there.
as for johnny horton, i dont recall him having huge hits in the UK but he did have moderate success over a period of time, he like eddie cochran and carl perkins, had more chart entries in the UK than in the US. there are probably more acts from the US that were more popular in the UK also, another one that springs to mind immediately is stray cats/brian setzer, allbeit in the 1980's
