My Man

Shirley McPherson
sings

My Man

Musical Accompaniment by Jan Stanley & the Convicts

Bowery Records, Myrtle Beach, S.C.

Arthur Smith Studios Charlotte, N.C.

Pressed by Kay Bank in Minneapolis (in 1964, according to the KB number printed on label).

One-off release on a label perhaps named after "The Bowery", sometimes referred to as the Eighth Wonder of the World - a landmark located 50 yards from the Atlantic Ocean in Myrtle Beach (cold drinks and live entertainment every night since 1944...)

The one recognizable name on label is Arthur Smith. But he was just the owner of the studio where was recorded the Bowery single. Someone has to explain one day why the Arthur Smith Studios had their records pressed so far away in Minnesota...

Jan Stanley & the Convicts are completely unknown.

I've found several references to Shirley McPhersons but none are conclusive. One was a singer with a group touring Army bases when she met (and married) the Arthur Prysock's bass player, named Lucky Romain. (ref.Pamela McPherson-Cornelius CDBaby page HERE).
