That's Billy Mize and Cliff Crofford singing in the background...don't know the girl, but know Billy and Cliff...worked at the Foothill Club in Long Beach with them for a year.
Actually, Bobby Bare recorded "All American Boy" but Bill Parsons was listed on the record because Bobby Bare was signed to a different record label. Bobby Bare found out that the song was released in Parson's name and was a hit while doing basic training in the service... I believe in the Army. But Bob Luman was a great entertainer who died much too young.
@olskool1877 Right...whereas when Ray Charles or Esther Phillips, etc., do Country, it's fine. Actually Bob Luman was a major figure in American music. Wrote a bunch of fine tunes, produced a lot of good artists, and did "All American Boy", credited to "Bill Parsons".
Cliff CRAWFORD, I meant.
