One can say what one wants about the hits produced and sometimes also written by Jerry Fuller, or do what one wants to them, for that matter. Copies of the wormy "Little Green Apples," "Young Girl" by Gary Puckett & The Union Gap, and The Knickerbockers' "Lies" have been found up in trees and at the bottom of ditches, after all, while some car and house radio dials have been severely damaged attempting a too-rapid escape from these oft-played ditties. There was much less saturation concerning Fuller's own performing career as a singer/songwriter, although he did score a couple of hits and broke ground with an early rockabilly version of "Tenneesee Waltz."
