Songs for Insomniacs 48: Moe Bandy,
“Bandy the Rodeo Clown”

This bittersweet anthem sounds like an autobiography by country singer Moe Bandy, but it was actually written by two other C&W greats, Lefty Frizzell and Sanger D. Shafer. No matter. Moe Bandy sings with as much conviction and regret as if the song were his own.
