This is a vintage live performance by Jeannie C. Riley of her hit song, "Harper Valley P.T.A.", written by Tom T. Hall.
Riley
was raised in Anson, Texas. This song immediately became a gigantic hit
for Riley and went to number one on both the Billboard Pop and Country
charts, a feat not repeated until 1981 when Dolly Parton released "9 to
5". Riley and the song became an overnight sensation, and the song
earned her the Grammy Award for Best Female Country Vocal Performance
and the Country Music Association Single of the Year award. Riley also
became one of the very few country artists ever nominated in the major
pop Grammy categories of "Best New Artist" and "Record of the Year".
