In case David is otherwise engaged - the song sounds like it might
be the Intruders(?) "Cowboys to Girls" which was recently covered by Chris
Gaffney, with duet vocals from Lucinda, on his 1995 Dave Alvin produced album
"Loser's Paradise" (great cd, btw).
Speaking of country-soul, I was listening to Freda Payne's "Band of Gold"
recently and I coulda sworn that some country act in the last 10 years had
covered it and maybe even had a hit with it. Anybody?
