1963
THE COUNTRY FOOL * ROYAL ROBINS * ABC PARAMOUNT 10504 * USA
Back in the 1970s before label listings were easily available I was never sure how old this record was, the catalogue number puts it just one release away from The Tams What Kind Of Fool but to me, back then, musically they seemed to come from two different periods. Both good records but where The Tams sounded every inch a Soul cut, The Country Fool with it's rockin' rhythm and vocal styling was reminiscent the late 1950s R&B.
