Bobby Bare - Sings Lullabys, Legends and Lies [2 CD Legacy Edition]

Soon after Bobby Bare returned to RCA in 1972, he recorded an entire LP of songs by the legendary songwriter, cartoonist and humorist Shel Silverstein. The album Bobby Bare Sings Lullabys Legends and Lies yielded three hits, Daddy What If, Marie Laveau (Bobby's first ever  Number One hit) and The Winner.

Ten other songs feature Silverstein's weird and often ironic twist on the country song. This is regarded by many as Bare's best-ever album.

In 2007 Legacy Recordings have released a Two-CD set with the original album supplemented by a second CD of tracks from the Mercury, RCA and Columbia labels, all written or co-written by Silverstein.
