It may be hard for the younger set to remember just how big she was in the mid 70s. She was the first female country artist to have consecutive million selling singles with “The Happiest Girl in the Whole U.S.A.” and “Funny Face” and she was capable of having hits with covers of older hits. Her version of “Don’t Be Angry” is nearly as good as the Stonewall Jackson original and she had a very interesting take on the old Patti Page/ Les Paul & Mary Ford hit “Mockingbird Hill” .
