The Homer & Jethro Project #59


#59

Well, it's getting down to the wire.

Let us dispense with the preliminary typing and proceed directly to the next album






March 1969 - lsp-4148 - Next Album

Sadly this would be the last long playing album that Homer Haynes would complete under the name of Homer and Jethro. There would be some records that the duo would go on to record with Chet Atkins under the name the Nashville String Band (which will follow in the coming week), a few stray singles and a posthumous compilation , but this is the final record as a whole for our heroes as Homer and Jethro.

But the good news is that it's one of their best efforts. It's good pretty much all the way through with some highlights along the way.
As always mileage will vary, but the "Gal From Possum Holler" is always a winner around here.



1. There Ain’t a Chicken Safe in Tennessee
2. The Gal from Possum Holler
3. I Ain’t Got a Worry in the World
4. Little Arrows
6. What Have You Done For Me Lately
7. I Upped My Income (Up Yours)
8. Cab Driver
9. I Haven’t The Foggiest
10. Pennsylvania Turnpike
11. Like Mother Used to Make
12. You Know a Thousand Ways

  1. Hi... are "The Punny Farm" and "The Funny Farm" 2 different songs or a mispelling?

  2. Aha.... found out "Punny Farm" was released as a 45 single only with Bside of Hello Darlin#2 in 1970. Maybe I will get lucky and you will have it and post. Thanks for your response.... Jim
