A rootsy Oklahoma gal with a lot of twang, Becky Hobbs had a fair run of chart success in the 1970s and '80s, but whose original recordings have remained out of print throughout the CD era... I'm hoping to check out more of her music some day... But man, is it hard to find!
Becky Hobbs "Becky Hobbs" (MCA, 1974) (LP)
Becky Hobbs "From The Heartland" (Tattoo, 1975) (LP)
Becky Hobbs "Everyday" (Tattoo, 1977) (LP)
Becky Hobbs "All Keyed Up" (MTM, 1988)
Becky Hobbs "The Boots I Came To Town With" (Beckaroo/Intersound, 1994)
A self-produced album with some fun songs on it... Her fans will be delighted to find new material, though folks who are new to her sound may be a little put off by the roughness of her vocals, a rugged style reminiscent of Lacy J. Dalton or Carlene Carter... Still, it is nice to hear some rootsy country music being made outside of the normal confines of the Nashville studio system.
Becky Hobbs "From Oklahoma With Love" (Intersound, 1998)
Becky Hobbs "Swedish Coffee & American Sugar" (2000)
This is a Scandanavian release which is apparently not available in the US...
Becky Hobbs "Songs From The Road Of Life" (Beckaroo, 2004)
Becky Hobbs "Best Of The Beckaroo, Vol. 1" (Beckaroo, 2006)
