About the artist
Unknown - "Springtime Down In Texas (Soldiers Last Dream In Viet Nam)" b/w "The Gypsy Song" (Oak label, 1972, pressed by Precision Record Pressing). The same Oak [Texas] label carried the 1969 "Valley Of The Brave U.S.A." single (row 3014); the Texas-themed catalogue is consistent with one Texas-marketed country artist recording across 1969-72, but label geography and song subjects assert nothing. No biography was found. [Source: Discogs]
