“Statue Of A Fool” #1 Country 7/5/1969

This week’s #1 country record by Jack Greene was supposedly written by Motown star David Ruffin in 1958 when he was 17. Due to his age, the authorship became the subject of some controversy. Country songwriter Jan Crutchfield claimed rights to the song. No matter – it still became Greene’s fifth country chart-topper.
