专辑简介
2008 reissue of the debut album from the singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist, which contains four bona-fide hit singles including 'Spiders And Snakes', 'My Girl Bill' and 'Wildwood Weed'. Jim Stafford performed during the '60s with a local Florida band that also included noted singer/songwriter Lobo and Rock legend-to-be Gram Parsons. Following this Lobo was to co-produce most of Jim's big hits, including his debut 'Swamp Witch' and 'Spiders and Snakes' Both were included on Stafford's eponymous LP, a release in 1974 on MGM Records. He can play a mean guitar but it's the catchy tunes and witty lyrics he writes that win the day. He was married to a first lady of country , Bobbie Gentry, at the time and moved in those circles himself, but there are a range of styles on this LP which Stafford attacks with panache, including pastiche Blues, real down home Tony Joe White style Swamp Rock and wistful Country Folk.
