I wished we could get Tony out with Darrell
McCall along with Mike Cass and do some
things together. Maybe someday

It would figure that I live in the state and
Mike came to Ohio to play. I missed seeing
him in St. Louis as Herb Steiner and I both agreed.

I was told it was Jay Dee, but there are no credits to be found. Jerry, was that one of the first two?

Yes, I think it was. I'll give a better
answer when I get home and can look at the albums. For now, try this link: http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=Blhjw7ipjg77r

Country singer/songwriter/guitarist Tony Booth grew up in Tampa, but launched his musical career in the Southwest. He made his professional debut with the Mel Savage Band and soon toured with Jimmy Snyder. In 1968, after founding the band Modern Country, Booth began working in Las Vegas and from there moved to clubs in California. He renamed the group the Tony Booth Band and became the house band at the Palomino in California. He cut his first single, "Big Lonely World," with K-Ark and signed to MGM in 1970, where he had his first hit with a cover of Merle Haggard's "Irma Thompson." ...

Correction: Wrong Irma. It's Irma Jackson", from Hag's "Let Me Tell You About a Song" album.

Great music! It's a shame Tony wasn't more successful. Sure seemed to have all it takes. What happened?
