Sammy's Cowboy Boots

Time is tight this week, so I don't have a lot to add to today's Sammy Marshall feature, aside from to point out two things. First, it might be better, when releasing a Western, Cowboy type song, if the label hadn't named the backing group "The Marsh-Mellows", even if it is a nice pun on the lead singer's name. And second, this side, "O, Give Me Back My Cowboy Boots", puts me in the mind of another, completely unrelated Globe Records-distributed track, "I Don't Want a Bracelet or Diamond (I Just Want Elvis Instead)", which can be heard at the end of this post.


Here's the flip, "Dry Up Those Tears":

really, rhyming "dancing" with "prancing" should get you thrown in the pokey.

These songs resonate on a certain level. That level is country bar band. But that's not a bad thing. It easily fits into a specific genre. And if you like that genre, then you'll like this record. I like this record.
