BILLIE JO SPEARS-"Get Behind Me Satan and Push" (1968)

"Look out, woman/ Dynamite's comin'!
I'm mad like hornet, yellin' 'Darnit!'/
Get behind me, Satan, and push!"

Billie Jo recorded this honkytonk/ rockabilly blazer in 1968.

To celebrate this Country hellion, here's a tribute to early 20th Century cowgirls. From the original western bad girl Annie Oakley, to Western pulp magazines like "Cowgirl Romances" and "Lariat", to comics like "Women Outlaws", to films like "Zorro's Black Whip" and "Woman They Almost Lynched", to Elvgren pin-ups, to you with love.

I love Billie Jo...but there is one inaccuracy in your info post...This song was indeed released on an old Cpaitol LP I have by Billie JO called "The Voice of Billie Jo Spears" with a very sexy young Billie Jo on the cover

[funknroll]

You're right; you've helped resolve some conflicting info by pointing me to that LP.

Thanks for your help!

[MarvinCooke]

Is this song really form 1970? Sounds like a 50s track.

[funknroll]

It's uncertain. It may be a late 50's or early 60's song that was compiled later, which is my real hunch. But the liner notes I read weren't clear enough about it.

If anyone knows better, please let us know.

[sangoor22]

Thx a lot!!

Who is the lady at 1:57 , the BW-pic ??

[funknroll]

It's Janet Leigh, from the Jimmy Stewart western, "The Naked Spur" (1953).

[Subrick]

Slipknot used to use this as an intro in 2000.

[SuperAcab666]

Thats how I like my country music to sound

I freaking liked that twangy guitar:-DDD

[imperialh8]

Slipknot brought me here. . . .

[Jonathan Bronco]

Just saw them on Mayhem and Sid used this as his into to his DJ set which made me happy beyond words \m/

[Knotunit]

Hell yea, first time I seen them in 99. This intro was sick when Sid cut it and used it as intro to 742617000027

I really need to find that or try and recreate it myself.

[jthomerson11]

I've got the LP that this song is on, "The Voice Of Billie Jo Spears." It was her first record I believe and it was released in 1968.

[Subrick]

Nope. Intro.

[Carl Ricco]

didnt they use it as the outro?
