I don't listen to country much. But I was searching for some songs and stumbled upon Lynn Anderson. She sang a lot of familiar songs (as covers?) and I liked her style. Never heard of her before but may buy one of her Best Of cd's.

Aside - while listening to other song recommendations based on liking Anderson, came across Harper Valley PTA. Funny song. Smile

Had a big hit with (I Never Promised You a) Rose Garden. Died about 5 years ago I think.

I’ve heard the song Rose Garden before but hadn’t heard of her until a few days ago. She would have been a favorite for me back then as well.

I can’t get HV PTA out of my head now…

The Harper Valley song used for the movie was sung by Jeannie C. Riley.

The song came first and inspired the movie...1978.

yes, and what I said is correct also.

Jeannie C. Riley's version was the biggest seller and the one that most anyone from that era would remember.
