Repressing. 2008 reissue of the debut album from the singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist containing three bona-fide hit singles including 'Spiders And Snakes', 'My Girl Bill' and 'Wildwood Weed'. Jim Stafford performed during the '60s with a local Florida band that included noted singer/songwriter Lobo and Rock legend-to-be Gram Parsons. Lobo co-produced most of Jim's big hits, including his debut 'Swamp Witch' which was on Stafford's eponymous LP, a release in 1974 on MGM Records. He can play a mean guitar as well as catchy tunes and witty lyrics. He was married to a first lady of Country, Bobbie Gentry, at the time and moved in those circles himself, but there are a range of styles on this LP which Stafford attacks with panache, including pastiche Blues, real down home Tony Joe White style Swamp Rock and wistful Country Folk. Retro.
