Joe Tex Question

[mark speck]

Elvis Costello does a song on the bonus CD of the Rhino reissue of "Blood and Chocolate" called "Tell Me Right Now", which is credited to Joe Tex as the writer. I have never heard of this particular song before...I'm assuming that Joe did a version of it, so my question is...which of his albums has his version of the song?

Thanks in advance!

Best,

Mark

Joe Tex... My mother loved that guy !!

Your mother? I loved that guy! He was known as the preacher [[and he later became an ordained minister, too!)

But, i'm still pissed that his "I Gotcha" album still isn't represented on CD. It was available very briefly on CD, but I have never seen it, nor do I ever see it offered online. I have to make do with my needledrop.

Well... I was a young lad when he was popular, but I remember she used to wear out "Skinny Legs and All" on the family record player. That's my memory of him.
