Red River Dave


Here's a record I found in the cabinet the other day. Maybe somebody out there is looking for some stuff by this fellow. If I'm not mistaken, this is the guy that wrote Amelia Earhart's Last Ride. Sorry I don't have his cut of that song.

The Red Caboose Behind the Train
The Convict and the Rose

  1. Red River Dave also recorded a number of topical and sometimes bizarre recordings. His record "The California Hippy (sic) Murders", about the Manson family, has to be heard to be believed.
