George Morgan Lyrics


George Morgan possessed a voice that was a sheer pleasure
to hear. Opry personnel knew it and brought him on board in
1948. A year later he enjoyed his career hit on Columbia,
“Candy Kisses,” one of Classic Country’s great #1 hits.
That year George Morgan had four Top Ten records, and it
appeared that George would be one of the great figures in
Country music for many years to come. It didn’t happen that
way. Though he had many chart records, few were major hits
after the forties. Still, with the exception of three years
in the late More...

"Cry Baby Heart"-Bob Lykins-1950 78 rpm Acetate | Reviewer: Andromeda International Records
    ------ About the song Cry Baby Heart performed by George Morgan

A recent discovery in an L.A. thrift store has unearthed a very rare piece of vinyl in the history of country music: a 10-inch 78 rpm acetate recording of Bob Lykins-"Cry Baby Heart" b/w "Second Hand Heart," dated 2/16/1950.

While I have not been able to yield any info in the net on country singer Bob Lykins, this recording is absolutely stellar on both songs, but especially his rendition of "Cry Baby Heart." Lykins does not try and go overboard on this song, which he performs solo with vocal and guitar; Lykins has a simple, natural delivery that transcends 5-decades of country music styles, making his version probably even better than better known versions (i.e. including those by Conway Twitty and George Moran).

Lykins tells his "Cry Baby Heart" story as though he is telling of his own life story. This immediately draws the listener into the song, which is exactly what all great singers are supposed to do, making the song relevant to the listener.

What this historic piece of country music was doing in an L.A. thrift store is beyond me; the recording studio or pressing plant states "Cry Baby Heart" came from Recoton Corporation/New York.

To Bob Lykins, wherever you are, I give you a standing ovation for your exquisite performance on "Cry Baby Heart." Not even all the decades of wear and deterioration in the fragile grooves of the acetate could diminish your stunning and perfect performance, which the song's composer(s) should be so proud of. As my lovely Miss Loretta Lynn would say, "Bob, you did country music real proud."
