Country Music Week / Judy Lynn (MP3s)
Here are two highly alluring instrumental tracks from Judy Lynn's 1965 United Artists LP titled The Judy Lynn Show. Both numbers are highly atypical selections for a country performer, but thoroughly enjoyable all the same due in no small part to the exotic sounds produced by Gene O'Neal, the band's pedal steel guitarist.
Judy Lynn Show - Night Train (3:18)
Judy Lynn Show - Baby Elephant Walk (3:08)

The First Mrs. Jones
Porter Wagoner's The First Mrs. Jones is a perfect example of why he established a reputation for an artist who didn't shy away from intense topics. The song, written by Bill Anderson, is the story of a marriage gone bad and the resulting mayhem.

That Jim Ed sure was a helpful dude. Here he's chiming in with directions, just in case you were too bombed to be able to figure out how to open a can of beer all by yourself.

Country Music Week 1962
As you already know, this is Country Music Week here on the Ichiban blog. Here are some promotional recordings for the big event made by some of the usual suspects and, perversely enough, some not-very-country acts like Connie Francis and the Kingston Trio, who were obviously striving for some crossover success. The 1961 promotional announcements were uploaded to Ichiban yesterday and can be found here.

She's All I Got (MP3)
Conway Twitty - She's All I Got
Here's Conway Twitty's 1972 version of She's All I Got, a huge hit a year earlier for Johnny Paycheck. Interestingly, Paycheck's version was a cover of pop singer Freddie North's original recording of the song, authored by Gary U.S. Bonds and Jerry Williams, known to you as Swamp Dogg.

Deke Dickerson & The Ecco-Fonics
Go behind the scenes with Deke, Sugarballs and Cialas, The Rockabilly Gorilla!
"Deke Dickerson and Chris "Sugarballs" Sprague prepare for their Fall
2011 Tour by recruiting a new bass player--a gorilla they found picking
oranges for minimum wage. Through training and bribery, Grease Monkey
The Rockabilly Gorilla becomes the new bass player for the band. This
is the first installment in a tour diary documenting the exciting life
on the road of rockabilly musician Deke Dickerson."
You can catch their act at the Rodeo Bar in NYC this Saturday night at 9:30. Free!
