Candy Barr was a famous stripper/burlesque queen who started her career in Dallas, Texas, appearing at the Colony Club where she became known for her Texas-themed outfit. She developed a casual friendship with Jack Ruby in 1952, as he operated clubs near her own. She married in 1953 and three years later shot her husband (they were separated) when he broke down the door of her apartment. She was charged, but the case was dropped.
The record is a song about Candy Barr and about the incident where she shot her husband.
This is an unusual record about famed Texas stripper, Candy Barr. It would be an interesting addition to any vintage record collection.
