The Lonesome Drifter - "Eager Boy" (1959)
Bastrop LA singer who apparently did not believe in rhythm sections. I've heard two of his tracks; neither has bass or drums
At one point copies of this went for $5K

The song was first offered to Hank Williams, then the undisputed "King" of country music. He was singing it on his early morning radio shows and that's how Webb Pierce first heard it. Fred Rose, Hank's music publisher and unofficial manager wouldn't let Hank record it saying it was too risky, as it was a little risque for the time. Hank told Webb ..."I think anyone's got guts enough to record it has got themselves a number one hit."
Webb Pierce recording
In August 1952, Webb Pierce released his version. Pierce's song was his third straight number-one single on the C&W Best Seller charts, where it stayed at number one for two weeks.
