[Garden & Gun] It’s been more than fifty years since Jerry Williams, Jr.‐better known as Swamp Dogg‐began building his name as an R&B musician, garnering a cult following for songs as catchy as they are deep. But for all his critical acclaim as a pioneering rhythm and blues singer, songwriter, and producer, Williams’s biggest commercial hit was a country song: "(Don’t Take Her) She’s All I Got" climbed the country charts when Johnny Paycheck released the song in 1971, and it went on to be recorded by Conway Twitty, George Jones, and Tanya Tucker. Williams himself even released a Nashville-recorded country album in 1981‐a move the Portsmouth, Virginia-born musician says was a natural one. "I was raised up on country music," he once told Nashville Scene. "The only black music I heard was on jukeboxes in service stations. If you take away the horns from most of my recording, you’ve really got somewhat of a country version."
