Bimbo
is an old song, probably written sometime in 1948 or 1949. It was
recorded in 1953 by Jim Reeves.
James
Travis Reeves (1923 - 1964) was an American country and pop music
singer-songwriter popular in the 1950s and 1960s, who also had gained
a wide international following. He was so popular that his songs
continued to chart for years following his death at age 40 in a
private airplane crash.
Reeves
version of Bimbo became his second No. 1 song on the Billboard
magazine country chart in January 1954. In those days it was an
extremely popular number and could be heard continuously running in
jukeboxes around the world.
