Anyone like Johnny Ray??

Cry by Johnny Ray.



I used to be a big fan 15 years ago. Never had his tape out of the casetette player.:cool:
 
I just got a Johnny Burnette & the Rock N Roll Trio best of, so he's been on quite a lot lately. Cracking stuff. :cool:

1958

 
What about this one.

Whispering Grass by Don Estell and Windsor Davis.



Made famous by the Inkspots back in the 40's but even though I love the Inkspots, I like the comedy? version better.
