    What a voice . I was in a Hospital Navy ship in Vietnam when i heard this song Played over the PA system taking care of my wounded Veterans . I said Wow! What A voice. I still heard that song in my head. Im 73 and i still remember. They dont make Music not even close to that. What they have now is total trash. RIP Terry. Thanks

I was a little kid in the 60's didn't turn 13 years old till 1969, and technically my music is the 70's which pumped out some really great songs along with the 80's HOWEVER, those dang 60's songs can really beat it all to heck and back. I also liked the later part of the 50's songs to. Jerry Butlers song For Your Love, can really put ice in your veins. That's why they call him, THE ICE MAN! The 1962 song, Make It Easy On Yourself kicks some butt out there to, and who could ever forget the song Let It Be Me by Jerry Butler and Betty Everett, blow the doors off you when you listen to that great 60's sounded music to, and I can think of a lot other 60's music that's really timeless to.

    Wow, Stafford and Elvis both had fantastic versions of this song. Must admit I'm more keen on this version - it has a haunting feeling. Sorry Stafford didn't receive more recognition in his lifetime. Sounds like he did it all, singer, songwriter, and actor. Breaking into the Top 5 when it was dominated by The Beatles was quite an achievement. Thanks for posting.

    Sandy Yuen You love his music. I just found a lot of background on Terry. The instrumentation on his music was with Bob Summers, brother-in-law of the pioneer new guitar. Thus Terry had these big connections in the music world. Reason that his first two recordings hit the charts. Les Paul & Bob Summers were married to two sister of a singing trio that sang Christian music.____ Pace sisters. Thus although Terry appears out of nowhere, to singing success, there were a lot of other people in his life.

    lynnkirton...I love to know, from your comments of 2 years ago, of your just coming to know Terry and his beautiful voice from this clip. I am a fan but also a dear friend from when I knew him back in 1973 when he recorded for Atlantic Records in Nashville, where I worked. He was just as sweet and humble as he was in this clip. I adored him and was heart broken when he died tho I didnt know for years. If you want to hear some of my favorite songs of Terry's that you can find on utube, look for Amarillo By Morning which someone else mentioned, he recorded it on his only LP released for Atlantic and it later, in 1991 I think, became a huge hit for George Strait which I'm glad Terry lived to see. Also an old Merle Haggard song Shelly's Winter Love is from the same album. There is also a song called Texas Moon Palace which is both a video of him at age 44 or so, performing it live at a club in Arizona and also a record on a little known label Player Records. It is one of his most poetic and beautiful songs with a wonderful melody which showcases his range. My other favorite that is so beautiful and is near and dear to my heart is called We've Grown Close. It was recorded in 1974 but just prior to being released, Atlantic New York shut down our small country division much to our heartbreak, including Terry's. The song was somehow included in a compilation of some of his songs from the 60's, tho it was from this later 70's era of his career when he looked like the consummate Texas "cowboy" he was. The pictures of him on the Atlantic LP were exactly what he looked like in '73 and '74 when he sang We've Grown Close. If you can, listen thru Bluetooth earbuds/headphones as the sound of his voice is so evocative and beautiful when directly in your ear. I think if you just do a search on say "We've Grown Close" by Terry Stafford you will find it on a channel from an Elmarr Neumann (or similar). Hope you find them, I love expanding his fan base even posthumously when he's no longer here to know it. RIP sweet Terry... I will see you on the other side.
