Hey Chris, what about Robbie Fulks' "She Took a Lot of Pills (And Died)"? The story always struck me as a starlet sister to Marie Provost... FYI Robbie also hailed Jean Arthur ...
just sayin'

Dan--

I'd never listened to Fulks before, so wasn't aware of those tracks until you mentioned them. I thought about including "Jean Arthur" in pt. 2, but the thing was already gargantuan as it was..
