About the artist

Gwen and Jerry Collins were an American country duo. 'One Tin Soldier', the Dennis Lambert and Brian Potter song, was issued on Capitol P-2835 in 1969 as the flip of "We've Gotta Give" (written by Jerry Collins), produced by Neil Wilburn; the duo also recorded 'Walk On Boy' and "We're Not Bad / Get Together" (Capitol 2710), and the Country Music Hall of Fame holds a Capitol publicity photograph of them.
