Thys, don't feel bad about this. I am sure there are many others (somewhere...) who also like Slim Whitman (I have it on good authority his Mom liked him). Another one I thought you would mention is "Achy Breaky Heart" by Billy Joe Cyrus... ;)

Maybe we should start at topic "My WORST Song - Ever!!)

Deep Purple - Made in Japan (double LP) was the very first album I ever bought .... about 1973. Also had the "Deep Purple - In Rock" album, but that somehow has disappeared over the years ... loaned out and never returned.
