Jimmy Dean: Sausage Mangnate/County Western Star
Yesterday I was out with The Wife foraging for breakfast and I said out loud; "what I really want is pancakes with
sausage in the batter." We never ended up eating breakfast. Later on at the grocery store and this product jumped out at me. This isn't exactly what I had been talking about but it's pretty close. (I didn't buy it, I do have some standards, low as they may be.)
Could the man who brought us Pancakes & Sausage On A Stick also be a Country Western star from back in the day?
It turns out yes.
This song was number one on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1961 and won the Grammy for Best Country & Western Record in 1962.
When I listen to this it strikes me that nobody writes songs like this anymore, in any genre, it's odd, to me at least.
