What the devil means "A and R men"? This should definitely be clarified.

I'm *pretty* certain that, in fact, the K-Trio's version of Tom Dooley was a *cover* of it being sung just *slightly* earlier by the Tarriers, a fine, and now completely forgotten group, that preceded the Trio by about a year -- I actually owned their original record. They are the ones who had a big hit with Hill and Gully Rider or whatever that song was.... Hayford Peirce 19:14, 5 March 2008 (CST)

Place cursor over 'A&R men' (in fact it's better without the spaces), and all will be revealed!
Now I'm going to google the Tarriers... Ro Thorpe 13:43, 6 March 2008 (CST)
The WP article on the song makes all clear. Ro Thorpe 13:49, 6 March 2008 (CST)

answer songs

Do we want separate article about these? In a sense, they *are* cover songs -- just with different words....

  • The Wild Side of Life -- It Wasn't God Who Made Honky-Tonk Angels
  • He'll Have to Go -- He'll Have to Stay
