These two songs, both involving a girl named Maria, seem to go together (at least in my mind). Strangely enough, in neither case am I referring to the song from "West Side Story".
The first is "My Maria". This song was later covered by Brooks and Dunn, but the version I prefer is the original by B.W. Stevenson, a top ten hit in 1973.
The next song is "Take a Letter Maria" by R.B. Greaves. This song went all the way to #2 in 1969. If his voice sounds familiar, it probably because he is a nephew of Sam Cooke.
