Jose Cuervo (song)

Jose Cuervo (song)

"Jose Cuervo" is the name of a Country music song made popular by Shelly West in 1983.

After a successful duet pairing with David Frizzell for three years, Shelly West went on her own to establish herself as a solo artist. Being her mother was legendary Country music singer, Dottie West, success came easily with the release of this song in 1983. The song was about a woman who drank too much Jose Cuervo tequila the night before. The song hit No. 1 on the Country charts and was West's second (and last) No. 1 since 1981's duet with David Frizzell, "You're the Reason God Make Oklahoma". The song provided a sales boost for the Jose Cuervo tequila company and brought even more success to West. The song was released on her first solo album, "West By West".

The follow-up to her No. 1 hit was a Top 5 hit that same year titled, "Flight 309 to Tennessee".

In addition, "Jose Cuervo" was determined by "Billboard" magazine as the Number One country song of the year 1983.
