Ask NOT,"How are the sausages made?"....Rather,ask "May I have another sir?"

Sorry John, I know calypso is off message but I just love this guy's stuff so much and it's not all western - as you of course know.

Again, apologies to continue with this digression, but whenever I get back home to my records this is almost always the first spin. I'll pour myself a scotch - 10:00 a.m. and play this over and over just to hear such fine singing.

I find similarities between Marty Robbin`s  ol` cowboy style and the vocals of Ray Price.....comin` in here at about 1:40 on this 1980 album he did with Willie Nelson

I can see this.  There is the reverberating timbre of rural country singing, mixed in with the sophistication and control of urban popular ballads. The beginnings of 'the Nashville sound'.

I have a copy of Western Models' low-slung, 1960 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz and cannot look at it, without getting these and Jim Reeves' records out. My record collection is to my model cars what the diorama backdrops are to yourself and other, fine posters, here. Though I guess that's true for most of us.
