Mickey Newbury Sings His Own
VINYL LP RECORD. RCA Victor, LSP-4675. 1972. Stereo. You hear a lot of utter nonsense about hard times in Nashville. Songwriter Mickey Newbury actually lived those tough times. In the broken down wreck of an old car deep in weeds, he actually lived and wrote songs there. Until the songs became hits for others, think Tom Jones, Don Gibson, Joan Baez, Eddy Arnold, and Ray Charles; and then he left the old car behind and moved to a 50-foot houseboat. Here are the songs that got him started and great songs they are, some of them arranged by the equally great Cam Mullins. Here are: Funny, Familiar, Forgotten Feelings; Sunshine; Sweet Memories; Good Morning, Dear; Just Dropped In; Time is a Thief; The Queen, and others. Produced by and liner notes by the incredibly talented Felton Jarvis, who once upon a time produced another long-haired cat who had just hit Nashville named Elvis Presley.
