ED BRUCE BEGAN HIS RECORDING CAREER, AS SO MANY OTHER ARTISTS DID, AT THE LEGENDARY SUN RECORDS IN MEMPHIS. WHILE HE ONLY SAW TWO RELEASES ON SUN RECORDS, THEY WERE BOTH FIRST-RATE ROCKERS AND CERTAINLY DESERVED A HIGHER PROFILE AT THE TIME OF THEIR RELEASE. HE LATER HAD RELEASES ON RCA VICTOR, COLUMBIA, WAND AND SEVERAL OTHER LABELS BUT HE WOULDN’T DENT THE COUNTRY CHARTS UNTIL A FULL DECADE AFTER HIS SUN DEBUT. HE MADE PLENTY OF FINE SINGLES AND THEY SURE WEREN’T COUNTRY. BRUCE LATER WENT ON TO BECOME A PROLIFIC SONG WRITER AND SCORED A HIT WITH “MAMMAS DON’T LET YOUR BABIES GROW UP TO BE COWBOYS” LONG BEFORE WAYLON JENNINGS AND WILLIE NELSON AND HE ALSO PENNED SEVERAL HITS FOR TANYA TUCKER AND OTHERS. BRUCE ALSO BECAME A FAMILIAR SIGHT IN A SLEW OF ‘80s AND ‘90s TV AND MOVIE DRAMAS. A GREAT RELEASE OF WHAT YOU COULD CALL HIS FORMATIVE YEARS *****
