Bill: n.p. Roger Miller box, disc1 Oooh! Now we're talking... How is that set? Are there relatively straight tonkers, etc. on there, before the full-blown sixties style sets in? I've seen that thing in stores but have never taken the time to check it out.

A few honkers, like the much discussed Lock Stock Teardrops, but not much. Has some of his classics (such as Invitation to The Blues) as cut by Miller in...um..early 70's? 1970, also for Smash. As Rich Kienzle says in the notes to The Best Of Roger Miller, Volume One: Country Tunesmith
