BURL JOHNNY DON AND A STUFF UP

Burl Ives - The big rock candy mountain. Burl, more folk than country, was also a superb actor winning an Academy Award as Best Supporting actor in The Big Country.

Johnny Restivo - But I love you

Don Gibson - Blue blue day. Alternative version to the original release.

The stuff up - Bill Parsons - The all American boy. A parody of Elvis is a real oddity. The story seems to be that Bobby Bare did the Demo record of a song he had written for his friend Bill Parsons to record. But the record company stuffed up and released what they thought was the better version by Bobby Bare but in error credited the singer as Bill Parsons.
