“I always heard whispers about Dinah Shore.”

Oh yes, I’ve heard that too.

But who is Dickey Lee?

Geez, I don’t even know the old time celebrities!

Dickey Lee, great singer/songwriter. And very funny cutie pie. Had a big hit record in 1962 - Patches - not the same one I posted from Clarence Carter. But at the same time Patches was a hit, (which he didn’t write - that was Barry Mann - a song he had written, She Thinks I Still Care, was a giant hit by George Jones.)

I’ve loved him since I was a teenager, and revel in the fact that most of the world thinks he’s a one hit wonder, but he’s in the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame. (All those one hit wonders had to eat, you know.)
