"Act Naturally".

OK, girls and boys, back to the 60s: This '63 Russell/Morrison collaboration was Buck Owens and The Buckaroos' first #1 Country hit. A heartbroken man, ironically, can play a sorrowful role in an upcoming film because of what's happening in his real life. Also covered by Loretta Lynn and by Dwight Yoakam who is, in my humble opinion, the best male Country singer ever. The Beatles' '65 version featured Ringo on lead vocals and peaked at #47. Released as the B-side to "Yesterday" and on the "Yesterday And Today" album. They played it during their 3rd Ed Sullivan Show appearance and at their famous Shea Stadium concert. Buck Owens and Ringo released a single and video in '89 (#27 Country). Song? Answer: "Act Naturally". Even being a non-drummer myself, Ringo was always my favorite Beatle. Ultra-cool bloke! He just released a new Country album. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fOpgL4mqEis https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uo29BMmUMo0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8YMdCmOlW8E https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nJ4VP3dO3qI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nn5hrIiPbDs
