Varese released a great package of her Warner Brothers singles in
2015. Margo's 20th Century recordings have not been issued on
CD.

Thanks so much for posting this. I hadn't heard this
news. She was very popular from 1975-79 in country music
circles. Her voice was kind of odd to me but in an
interesting way. :)

I agree that she did have an unusual voice. Thought that her
vocals had a little girl quality similar to Dolly Parton. Had the
chance to meet her and see her in concert several times in the
1970's. She was extremely nice. The audience especially loved
it when she did yodeling songs.

Her most successful records were remakes of pop hits. They
were consecutive singles in 1978 - Don't Break The Heart That
Loves You (Connie Francis) It Only Hurts For A Little While
(Ames Brothers) and Little Things Mean A Lot (Kitty Kallen)
She did return to a more traditional country style with this #13
single hit in 1980:
