SANFORD CLARK “The Fool” (Ember Records, 1968)

Sanford Clark is one of my favortie story teller. He began in the 1955 with a big rockabilly hit “the fool”, then came back in the late 60’s as the Lee Hazlewood protégé with two wonderful LPs and a new rough version of The Fool.

Brilliant.

As one goes out another one sits down
In the dust filled room they wish that the cigarette could last forever
