An ambitious man named Jesse Smith was the founder/owner of BO-KAY records. This label was active from 1957–67 according to my notes. It may have begun in Lamesa, Texas and moved later to Odessa which is just down the road. Anyway, Smith seems to have had an interest mostly in country music but did release some significant songs for Elroy Dietzel, a rockabilly artist. His version of 'Rock-N-Bones' is now a rockabilly classic! Elroy Dietzel and the Rhythm Bandits had at least 2 singles on BO-KAY during the early days of the label. Neither of the records by him were national hits but these recordings are quite collectible today and have some value! Smith also had at least two musicians on his label that played in famous bands and were quite talented. They were the noted fiddler-songwriter Red Hayes and the singer-guitarist Billy Thompson. Both could sing well and their country records were very well done, in a country-pop vein. I especially like the songs 'Next to Jimmy' by Red Hayes and 'Walzing with Sin' as sung by Billy Thompson. Although they played in clubs around Odessa and Midland they eventually played the 'Golden Nugget' in Las Vegas with Billy Thompson fronting the band. BO-KAY also released an album titled "Billy Thompson" in 1965. Aside from the song mentioned above by him, it also contained another fine song "Love Gone Blind" from the related single. Other artists on BO-KAY include a local night club act, 'Red and Betty Stewart' and one artist that had recorded for Capitol in 1954, Patsy Elshire Blane. Some other artists that also appeared on BO-KAY with singles include: Terry White, Cecil McCullough, Ronnie Blackwell and Johnny Goff. (reference: A.O.K.: Record Labels of West Texas and New Mexico/ 2nd reference: The author's personal record collection. Even though BO-KAY does not appear to have been afilliated with a particular studio (like Ruff, AOK and Gaylo labels were) some of their songs were recorded in Clovis and Jesse Smith had a hand in producing a lot of it's singles. This label was one of the most consistent producers of records in West Texas during their decade of existence it appears.
