Marlon Grisham on Blake

 
Marlon Grisham - Queen of the City (Blake 2-222), 1968

Both the label and the artist have covered on this blog before. Blake Records was owned by John Cook. This record by Marlon Grisham is from 1968 but I didn't even know it exists until recently, when I purchased it. Grisham is most famous for his 1959 Cover recording "Ain't That a Dilly" but also recorded a fair amount of other songs on Memphis labels. He passed away in 2004.
