Thread Name: Lyr Req: Gold in the Mountains / Only the Hangman
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Gold in the Mountains --not Presley
Val Doonican had a huge hit record with 'Walk Tall' in the early '60s.

My mother had heard Val sing 'Gold in the Mountains' & knew I liked it so tried to buy it for me as a surprise. No record shop had heard of it so she bought 'Walk Tall' instead.

She didn't realise that 'Only the Heartaches' was the 'B' side and was the song she had been looking for.
