BEHIND THE SONG

Inspiration and background

Researched recording background

Buddy Killen wrote and produced this recording. The Anita Kerr Singers recorded it under the Little Dippers name in 1959, before the single appeared in 1960. The composition also received later recordings by Billy Walker and Pete Drake; these are separate performances, not duplicate copies of the Little Dippers record.
