BOBBIE GENTRY, BING CROSBY AND TINY TIM???

WHAT A BIZARRE TRIO, BUT BOBBIE IS COUNTRY MUSIC'S SULTRIEST GODDESS! SHE'S BEST KNOWN FOR ODE TO BILLIE JOE AND FANCY, WHICH REBA MCINTYRE COVERED, BUT HER SONGWRITING AND PRODUCTION SKILLS ARE UNIQUE. THOSE MILLION $ HORN ARRANGEMENTS MAKEKE HER MUSIC SOUND MORE LIKE R & B THAN COUTRY, BUT IT'S STILL TANGY!

A CAJUN BOBBIE SINGS NIKI HOEKEY WITH DANCERS!



ONE OF MY FAVS, TOUCH 'EM WITH LOVE--ABOUT DEATH! COUNTRY GOSPEL AT IS BEST! AND SHE'S SINGING LIVE!
