The Blaze Foley album is such a rarity.. I played cuts 1 and 4 on the
radio at two separate stations as they were the two cuts on the pink
Vital record. There were never any other releases given to country
radio unless it was requested.
The real story behind Girl Scout Cookies reportedly lies in a story
that Foley read.. A girl scout was raped and killed by a pervert
during her cookie sale. If most radio stations understood the real
story, they'd not have played the song during cookie sales as they
did, but we'll never really know now since Blaze is long dead. He was
considered part of the "couch circuit" in Austin, years before it
became the scene it is today.
Nevertheless, this record is one I remember from my past career and I
owe you such a debt of GRATITUDE for having posted this! I encourage
each of the regulars to consider downloading this one. I'm so lucky to
see and hear this again for the first time in nearly 20 years.
Would you happen to have the scans and Track 8 of this?
Muchas Gracias,
