The Fifties and Beyond.
1959 THE BATTLE OF NEW ORLEANS-- JOHNNY HORTON-- 1814 took a little trip and we fired our what and the British did what? Great song.
1958 PURPLE PEOPLE EATER-- SHEB WOOLEY-- It was a one-eyed, one-horned, flying one at that. By the pride of Erick, Oklahoma (on Route 66).
1957 LOVE LETTERS IN THE SAND-- PAT BOONE-- Was he ripping off another black artist with this one?
1956 CHERRY PINK AND APPLE BLOSSOM WHITE-- PEREZ PRADO-- Also a really fine song.
1949 RIDERS IN THE SKY-- VAUGHN MONROE-- That voice with that song, what a perfect combo.
1939 WISHING (WILL MAKE IT SO)-- GLENN MILLER-- Was it ever on a greatest hits compilation?
1929 THE WEDDING OF THE PAINTED DOLL-- LEE REISMAN
1919 BEAUTIFUL OHIO-- HENRY BURR
