tommy overstreet was one of the best in the 70’s. he had some really great songs. we stll enjoy his songs. tommys songs was played on the radiio alot. those that havent had the opprtunity to hear him or the other great artist of the seventies would see what they missed. his songs are timeless. he is still one of the country music treasures. i thank my parents for playing the radio and for playing the seventies country music. tommy was and is still the best.

Tommy Overstreet “Smoky Mountain Lullabye” is a treasure and regional classic.

Thanks Paul.
Is it just me or does he look just like Kenny Rogers used to look?

If T.O. is related to Paul, it’s very distant … he’s not part of the South Mississippi bunch!

I love these articles, but you were perhaps a little remiss in not telling us whether or not Tommy was related to Paul Overstreet. (’Cause those of us who don’t know are all wondering.
And unlike the other forgotten artists who have been profiled, I don’t believe I’ve ever heard a Tommy Overstreet song.
