Album Was a Gag
Elva Miller reflected on this: "Capitol Records created the angle that 'she's so bad that she's good.' Or, it's what you call camp." But still that doesn't explain why so many records were sold. It's true that I have drawers full of letters from young people saying, "We think it's wonderful that you are singing our songs."
Was Mrs. Miller in on the gag? She claims that she wasn't- not at first.
"I don't sing off key and I don't sing off rhythum," she insisted. "They got me to do so by waiting until I was tired and then making the record. Or they would cut the record before I could become familiar with the song. At first I didn't understand what was going on. But later I did, and I resented it. I don't like to be used."
She made a second album for Capitol, prophetically titled, Will Success Spoil Mrs. Miller? Despite sales of 30,000 on that one, the record company put forth a third album, The Country Soul of Mrs. Miller.
Without consulting us, Capitol released the news that I was being dropped."
