@Waynescott1 Bing's hometown was Spokane, Washington, so you couldn't really blame him for saying Kosciusko and Biloxi wrong. Two of the greatest entertainers of all time.
-
@mmc1955 Kosciusko is named for Thaddeus Kosciuszko (the Indiana and Mississippi spellings leave out the Z), a man from Poland who helped the Colonists in the American Revolution. In Mississippi, it is pronounced KOS-SEE-ESS-KO.

They shoulda been at Woodstock.

@Chrliesangelsman I stand corrected. Maybe it's partly the audio & video don't always synch up perfectly when a video gets uploaded & formatted to YT, making it look clumsily lip synched when it's the original was perfectly live!
-
@danieldrownr: Very well said danieldrownr. I totally agree. As I stated to MauraES above, it was nothing in the 60's & 70's to hear songs in the Top 100 on the radio. They did not have the internet or MTV, therefore record sales were larger for songs that were in the top 100 back then.
-
@MauraES: Actually, 300,000 was NOT optimistic in the 60's & 70's for something in the Billboard Top 100. They did not have MTV or internet back then. It was very common to hear songs in the top 100 playing on the radio.

@Bobb9999: More of the videos featured on you tube of Bobbie performing, are LIVE. I don't think you have watched closely enough. She even misses a cue, and in her performace of Fancy on Johnny Cash, she changes her style of delivery and it is very apparent.
-
The more I listen to her the more I love her!
-
What an incredible talent and beautiful woman! Lucky to have seen her! MS State, 1968, w. acoustic guitar and piano player. M-I-doubleS-I-doubleS-I-double

Thanks a billion for Bobbie. I know she's still alive living in Sherman Oaks CA (according to last reports). I have never loved a singer as much as BG. I hope she is nothing but happy and maybe willing to do an interview or send out a acoustic set. We love you Ms G. xoj

Get with the program Bobb9999! Okolona is live. Bobbie had (maybe still does) a great voice live or in the studio. Soulful and sweet at the same time. She wrote most of her own material, including the two songs here, and played several insturments. In other words- she was a Musician.
