Father's Table Grace [Jones- Homer]
"I Love Flatt and Scruggs" is possibly Skeeter Davis'
best album up to that point in her career. She glides
effortlessly through these mostly up-beat bluegrass-tinged
country tunes, each one a perfect match for her voice.
Standout cuts are Head Over Heels, Down the Road, God Loves
His Children, and I Won't Be Hanging Around. But even
songs like The California Uptight Band and Father's Table
Grace, which were too corny for words when done by Flatt
and Scruggs, are just fine with Skeeter on board.
