Jody Miller - Silver Threads and Golden Needles (Shindig! 1965)

[number8naz]

I so enjoy her pop hits but the most incredible song she ever recorded was American Trilogy...now on you tube. Pure perfection !

I listened to her las night at a local benefit concert and she stiil has her voice.

lol! I used to fight with my parents every time shindig was on! They literally hated the show! Jody's first hit was a "reply song" to Roger Miller's "Dang Me." I believe it was called "Durn you."

@MrKettlebellysmith I think you are referring to Roger's "King of the Road" and Jody's reply was "Queen of the House."

I second that emotion! What an incredibly powerful songtress! And a real beauty too! I'm surprised she didn't become a bigger star in her day.

This song was a hit on the country chart's as well as the rock chart's.

Would like to see a video of Jody doing her 1973 hit Be My Baby.

Hadn't The Springfields a hit with this just a few years before this?

[Breatherable]

@jemb2000 The Springfields recorded Silver Threads and Golden Needles back in 1962, It was originally recorded by Wanda jackson in 1956.
