What is Your Favorite Wynn Stewart Recording?
If I had to pick just one it would probably be "Sha-Maria" with Moon's Cajun Licks.

Wynn recorded a great tune that unfortunately didn't go anywhere entitled "Love Ain't Worth A Dime Unless It's Free."
I don't know if it's my favorite 'cause he had some really fine tunes, but this one deserves wider recognition.

"Playboy" and "Couples Only". The lyrics of theses two songs showed the opposite ends of the "swingin'single" bar hopping lifestyle of the early 60's. And of course both songs exemplified the emerging West Coast sound beautifully. "They call me a playboy while I'm making my rounds" and , "I'm so lonely, couples only, tonight." Wow, Great stuff!

Bob Wills had an old swing tune called "You Don't Care What Happens to Me". Wynn cut it as a ballad and I think it had more emotion than any other ballad he ever cut. I also like "The Tourist". For uptempo stuff I'd say "Another Day, Another Dollar" and for the good old country shuffle category "One More Memory" would be my pick.

"That'sthe Only Way to Cry" is a standout.
In the surprise steeler category, Buddy Emmons' 1971 (uncredited) harmonic intro on the unissued "You Can't Take It With You" takes the cake. Not what you usually associate with Wynn, but what a trip!
Oh--and if you'd like to hear these hits and rarities, sell your effects box and get the Wynn Stewart box, <u>Wishful Thinking</u>: 10 CDs of glorious alternative to the country drought.
