About this deal

Also a US No. 1 for Larry Verne, it's a song about and sung/spoken mostly from the perspective of a cowardly soldier in Mr Custer’s army wishing not to fight in the Battle of the Little Bighorn against the Sioux, asking to be excused to change his library book etc. Much of the record is him thinking aloud, talking flippantly to other soldiers about the unfurling action etc. Weirder yet, it opens with Native American whoops and war cries (with more later on) and has a tribal chant underneath the whole thing (white people doing Native American voices... less culturally sensitive times). But all those sounds, and the worried-sounding conversational Charlie, and the whooshing sounds of flying arrows sounding throughout, all add up to a outlandish-sounding record.
