"Gonna Find Me a Bluebird" and "Whole Lotta Woman" were his.

A brief courtship with the pop charts but "Whole Lotta Woman" sure left an indelible mark on many a teen in the late fifties, and the song still keeps popping up. Thanks for your contribution, Marvin, RIP.

Yes, on the bright yellow MGM label, as was Connie Francis!
