It’s usually a relief when a songwriter finally scores a hit singing one of his own tunes. Joe South, writer of “Down In The Boondocks,” “Hush” and more, broke through as a performer with this scathing look at various forms of hypocrisy. He was also an accomplished session guitarist and wrote “Rose Garden” by Lynn Anderson. Freddy Weller, whom we mentioned yesterday, had a country hit with his version when he went solo later in the year.
