"Pop A Top" #3 Country 8/5/1967

A good ol' twangy two-step get-down-and-drink song from Jim Ed Brown reached the country Top 5 this week in 1967. Love that sound of cracking open a cold one! Alan Jackson had a dynamite remake in the late 90's. Along with sisters Maxine and Bonnie, the Browns had a #1 hit on the pop and country charts in 1959 with "The Three Bells." Jim Ed passed away in 2015 from lung cancer, as did Bonnie Brown the following year. Just a great country record, and very much a fave of mine.
