John Conlee kicks some major bootie

"I have to admit, I almost forgot about John Conlee until about two years ago when he came to a nearby county fair. I was taken aback at how many great songs he did. Soon after the show I started looking all over for any of his works, and finally found this tape at a second-hand store somewhere. It is a jewel. It may lack a few of his greatest songs, but you can't go wrong with this one. It is a shame this album is so hard to find. I'll guarantee you if more people saw him live, and radio stations started playing his songs again, you'd ship out a lot of his albums."

Outstanding Album by an Outstanding Artist

"John Conlee is truly a living legend in the country music business. This album, one of the earlier releases, puts his melodious voice to the test with such greats as Rose Colored Glasses, Backside of Thirty and I don't remember Loving You. One of my favorites, Common Man is sung with style that makes you cling to each word. Truly a classic album, and perhaps the one to own if you only can have one!"

A great album...

"The song I remember more than any of Johns other hits was "Rose Colored Glasses". When I was a kid in junior high, our dad would often drag my younger brother and I up to the American Legion Post #81 in Duncanville TX. Our parents had divorced when I was six or seven years old and he was raising us. Anyway, I remember always playing this and Blondie's "The Tide Is High" on the jukebox while dad sat and drank with his bar buddies. That place always seemed full of smoke but we made do so long as dad gave us quarters to feed the video games, pool table, and jukebox.



John, if your reading this, we need a DVD concert where your singing your hits!

I own the CD and its great."
