The Best of Billy "Crash" Craddock (1973 album)

The Best of Billy "Crash" Craddock is an album by country singer Billy "Crash" Craddock. A collection of late 1960's recordings from Craddock's brief, unsuccessful stint on Chart, this "Best of" collection did not have a single cut on it that had made the Billboard charts during that period. This album was released in 1973 to cash in on Craddock's current success with several top ten hits on ABC Records and the album managed to hit the Hot Country Albums chart on Billboard peaking at #50. Craddock's stint at Chart was so unprolific that just eight songs had been recorded, requiring the full-length album to be fleshed out with two tracks by "guest artist"Gene Hood. The album was produced by Slim Williamson.
