Friday on my Mind 128: Single Girl

The sentiments in this, Sandy Posey’s second hit (from 1966,) are probably a bit un-feminist for today’s tastes but the melody and harmonies are lovely and she has a good voice.
I must confess I don’t remember her other hits Born A Woman (a proto Stand by Your Man) and What A Woman In Love Won’t Do (ditto.)

Nick Lowe covered “Born A Woman” around 1977/78. It was originally on his “Bowi”(sic) EP and can be found on cd on “The Wilderness Years”, “The Doings” boxset and the expanded edition of “Jesus Of Cool”.

Donald,
Thanks for looking in and commenting.
I hadn’t known of the Nick Lowe connection.
