Great article

I have search Popsike and this record has sold on a number of occasions and fairly recently

https://www.popsike.com/php/quicksearch.php?searchtext=Mark+IV++‎–+It's+Easy

There was a release (involving Jim Stanton here) By Mary Blevins and I have no doubt she was related to Boyd, there's even a contact phone number, but I doubt it will help, sadly, but you never know who's out there

During the article research, I spent hours looking through Obit’s, etc, and never found any ancestry connection on any (relevant) Blevins for ‘a Boyd’. I couldn’t find any connection with Mary Blevins, Paul (Windy/Wendy) Blevins, or any of the Blevins associated with the Popcorn supplies and equipment outfit located on Charlotte Ave, Nashville.

I did find Boyd Blevins turning up on Jim Stanton’s Rich-R-Tone 8015 Gross Brothers, “The Little Puppy (You Gave Me)”, 1968. Gross Brothers did appear on WZIP (see Northern Connections #19 para Writer Dyche, for more on WZIP & Ray Pennington ).

I also found Charlie Boyd as writer on Champ 2004, The Minors “ Lonely Boy / Unchained Melody” (not Charles Boyd from Chicago).

But who knows?

I have found the address of Champ (where it was) there is a phone number for the new owner
