Agree that it's noticeably weaker than the first two. Stick "One Bad Apple" on there for a start!

IIRC, there are no Osmonds tracks in this series. Which is weird.

Must have been a rights issue.

Voted "Rose Garden" btw.

It's a pity (?) there's no formal video for the Bells travesty but some joker did this.

In 1972, Ken Tobias released "Stay Awhile" as the lead track on his album Dream #2.

Here's a twist...and yet it isn't.
In 1978, he toured Europe, and while there he collaborated on the soundtrack of the Italian spaghetti western Sella d'Argento (Silver Saddle/They Died with Their Boots On), directed by Lucio Fulci.
Most likely (re: Osmonds). "Crazy Horses" and "Down By The Lazy River" will be sorely missed down the road.

As for the Bells themselves, sultry! *gag*

Did Kris Kristofferson "do a Zeppelin" and refuse to release any singles or something? Anyhow, these are top notch versions of two quality songs. Particularly taken with Ray Price's effort.

Checking wiki, apparently the only single from his s/t debut was "To Beat The Devil", which is cray when you considered how loaded with hit copywrites it is.

ooh, "Silver Bird" is good. Imagining Lalo Schifrin was asked to arrange a Eurovision Song Contest entry! I may vote for this.
