A 45 rpm that I used to have and would like to have again is a song called "Unitar Rock"; on the other side it was (I think) "Cherokee Dance". Both songs were played on a one string "guitar", and one was sung in a gravely voice that made you want to clear your own throat as you listened. I don't remember who did it, but it came out in the early '50's if my memory is accurate. As a recording it is just a novelty record with no great redeeming qualities either social, cultural, or any other criteria, other than I'd like to get a copy of it still on record, dubbed to tape, or copied on to CD.
