Based on this inventive, cool, performance, would have been #2 after Nancy's version -- if they would not have talked. Just because you can play super-well, it doesn't mean you are clever, can sing, or that anyone wants to hear you interfere with the music. So, this version belongs in the corny tunes trash heap, with much of the work by Spike Jones & the City Slickers. They ruined a good thing.
Lost a great one.
The music lives on...
RIP Billy Strange.

Thank you, Mr. Hazlewood, for one of the best of the often covered songs!

Billy arranged Nancy's version of this. Billy wrote A Little Less Conversation for Elvis and several other hits.
