This got reworked later for New Star with updated guitar sounds. And there's also a couple of decent rockabilly numbers among his earliest Capitol releases. None are as good as this one though.; Sunday, March 22, 2009

Chef JP said...: Ah yes, what a great side! I think Nathan's missed the boat-- coulda had a great commercial song here.; Monday, March 23, 2009
Funky Old Man said...: Thanks! A great find, indeed. Only lacking a bit of cow bell to make it more obnoxious.; Tuesday, March 31, 2009
