One more particularly memorable obsession for this week's #JukeboxFridayNight, written by Tom T. Hall:

"Green, Green Grass of Home", written by #ClaudeCurlyPutmanJr, and first recorded by singer #JohnnyDarrell in 1965, is a country song made popular by #PorterWagoner the same year, when it reached No. 4 on the Country chart. It was also recorded by #BobbyBare and by #JerryLeeLewis, who included it in his album #CountrySongsForCityFolks (later re-issued as All Country). #TomJones learned the song from Lewis' version and, in 1966, he had a worldwide No. 1 hit with it.

BOBBY BARE
Tender Years
1965 U.S. pressing

Spending the night with one of the all time #country GOATS.

I was in the middle of re-arranging the country wing of my library, and realized it’s been a while since I’ve listened to Bobby.
So I pulled out two of my favorites, and I’m about to do them both back to back, starting with this one.

Only 8 songs are collected here, but they’re ALL slayers, including one of my favorite Bobby Bare tunes “Vampira”.

The Gambler

It was five years ago today that we lost the living personification of ’The Gambler’.

“Every gambler knows
That the secret to surviving
Is knowing what to throw away
Knowing what to keep”

BILL PARSONS
"THE ALL AMERICAN BOY" (Talking Blues)
Mastodon Post

1959 HITS ARCHIVE: The All American Boy - Bill Parsons (Bobby Bare) (a #2 record)

Evidently when "The All American Boy" was playing in 1958 and (mostly) 1959, I was listening the other way. I gave this a try at Bandcamp and bought it; but for some reason, evidently it is no longer available there. Too bad but we still have YouTube. This track is really quite good.
