Sometimes the story is more interesting than the song, and I think that's the case with the hit "The Horse" by Cliff Nobles & Co.
Cliff Nobles was a singer, and in 1968 he released his second single titled "Love Is All Right," and it didn't generate any interest at all, but the flip side which was just an instrumental version of the A side caught fire. The funny thing is that since there were no vocals, Cliff Nobles didn't even perform on his biggest hit song.
"The Horse" made it to number two on the charts, and stayed there for three weeks, It was only beat out by Herb Alpert's massive hit, "This Guy's In Love With You."
Cliff & Co tried to do it again, but "The Mule," and "The Camel" just couldn't do it for them!
