Hey thanks I really enjoyed that one.
You know it would be interesting to know how long the Melody Ranch Girls continued before Jean settled on her solo career.
One of Wynn Stewart's guitat players (Cecil Bays, not Roy) once mentioned in an interview that he was a 'Melody Ranch Girl' with Jean!

Yeah, apparently the other girls were slowly replaced due to marriage or whatever and they ended with an all-guy band bar Jean on course.

Anyway, I haven't seen Robbie website for over a year, it's looking better than ever and I'm going to have to check out his latest album, I've yet to hear any of it, but I'm going to remedy that very soon.
