Colonal Sanders, the musician



Everybody probely thinks that Crl. Sanders, the foudner of KFC [Kentucky Fried Chicken], made millions of dollars, because everybody bought his chicken, and his lived on a huge estate in the South. Wrong. The Crl. made very little money off KFC, because he sold the franchise in 1964. They just kept him as their spokesman because, I guess, He brings a Southern Hospitality-kind of feeling when you bought the chicken, I don't know. So, he released a couple albums of Cajun & Folk recordings in the 1960's, before he died on December 16th, 1980 of Leukemia. I don't believe his recordings are avalible, and I am sure KFC has no plans to re-issue them, after all KFC is not a record label, it's a fast-food restaurant.
