“Humphrey The Camel” #78 (#5 Country) 8/1/1970

The follow up to “Tennessee Bird Walk” from Jack Blanchard and Misty Morgan barely made the pop charts but became a country Top 5 hit. Believe me, folks, this one is just as weird. For all their fear of being labeled a novelty act, Jack and Misty were really quite innovative. They used synthesizers and wah-wah pedals long before anyone else in the rigid country music field did so. No fiddles and steel guitars here.
