Rockvirgo: "Leader of the Pack" - The Shangri-Las (they had others like this too, but I don't know that I'd put any of the girl-group melodramas in the thread-head's outlined catagory, much as I love 'em).
60's/70's Talking/Singing Story Ballads
The thread with "Jack Johnson" in the title reminded me of growing up in Iowa and listening late-night Fridays to Beaker Street with Clyde Clifford on claer-channel KAAY - Little Rock. He would play stuff like the Jaime Brockett classic "Legend of the Titanic" and Arlo Guthrie's "Alice's Restaurant" and others of this genre when radio stations allowed more than 5 minutes of continuous programming.
I know there were quite a number of other "songs" like this but memory of the titles escape me for various and sundry (mostly sundry) reasons. What were a few others, please?
