Linden scored two hits on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 late in the 1950s. The first was "Billy", a song originally written in 1911; it hit #7 in 1958. The second was "Goodbye Jimmy, Goodbye", which rose to #11 in 1959. Both singles were released on Felsted Records and featured Joe Leahy's backing orchestra. "Goodbye Jimmy Goodbye" incorporated elements of two previous tunes - the British music hall song "Two Lovely Black Eyes" and the country song "Goodbye Little Darling". There were a few covers, the biggest of which was by Ruby Murray in the UK. At the time of her first hit single Kathy was a married woman in her 20s, but her record company wanted her to appear as a child due to her childish voice.

I think you're right about this tune being "500 Miles" from the woman's point of view. If you check the record label, it appears she gave Bobby Bare writer's credits on it, based on his version of "500 Miles," I suppose. The most noteworthy fact I can offer about Mary Taylor is that she wrote the lyric's to Jody Miller's big Grammy winning hit "Queen of the House," with music by Roger Miller, of course. According to Jody, Mary also provided the finger snaps on the recording. At the time, both ladies were artists on Capitol's roster. Those were the days!
