In The OMNIPOPRECORDSHOP Today - BANANARAMA Robert DeNiro's Waiting - on Picture Disc with my fave Keren Woodward. I always liked them because they always seemed liked they became pop stars for a lark. Even at their most commercial , they weren't so calculating, they had a healthy irreverence

Looking at his Wikipedia entry Red Sovine had a more interesting life and career than this record would indicate https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Sovine?wprov= sfla1 Whether you find this record sweet, hilarious, pathetic, or a bonafide Country Classic, is of course up to personal taste. (2/2)

In The OMNIPOPRECORDSHOP Today - Red Sovine - TEDDY BEAR - A Number One Country song in 1976, this is an example of two subgenres of music that are not around much anymore-the truck-driving, CB record, and the recitation story-song. (1/2)
