Cameo 703 B Vernon Dalhart A BOY'S BEST FRIEND IS HIS MOTHER

“A Boy’s Best Friend Is His Mother” is a sentimental 1925 country/old-time vocal recording by Vernon Dalhart. The song centers on the enduring love and importance of a mother, reflecting the sentimental popular-song repertoire Dalhart frequently recorded. The song was written by Harry Miller and Joseph P. Skelly. Artist: Vernon Dalhart Title: “A Boy’s Best Friend Is His Mother” Label/catalog: Cameo 703 Coupling: “The Prisoner’s Song” Recording year: 1925; Dalhart's recording is documented as a 1925 recording. Release date: 1925. Discographies consistently place Cameo 703 in 1925, but I could not verify a reliable exact month/day for the Cameo release. Note: Some modern digital listings give specific dates for this title, but those appear to refer to later digital releases rather than the original Cameo 703 issue, so I would use 1925 as the historically supportable release date.
