The answer would be Joey Powers on the Amy label. Went to #10 on the
Billboard Chart in 1963. I am not sure if it's available on CD. Same
storyline as Down In The Boondocks - Billy Joe Royal. Bad boy or poor boy
story. Great song.
Hope this helps;

The song is "Midnight Mary" by Joey Powers, and it is from 1963. It's
available on one of the Dick Bartley One Hit Wonders CDs from Rhino.
-Anne Hallerman
DC1 - David Clark
That would be Joey Powers, issued on Amy 892 in 1963.

| It sure is [available on CD] ...on Dick Bartleys "One Hit Wonders" Vol 1.
One qualification: the Bartley collection uses the LP version of "Midnight
Mary." The 45 release (which I like better) is available on Collectors'
Choice Music's CD "Teen Idols -- for a Moment." The CCM release uses a
needledrop for that one track (the only needledrop on the CD), but it is
*very* clean.
Both are monaural.
