328. Wolverton Mountain (Claude King & Merle Kilgore)
This ballad launched Claude King's career in the US in 1962. Apparently it was based on a real character who lived on Woolverton Mountain in Arkansas. Johnny Horton and George Jones supposedly declined the chance to record the song. If so it was a bad decision. Claude King decided to record it himself and the song was at the top of the US charts for nine weeks. You can hear the original recording elsewhere on YouTube so why bother listening to my cover?
