DEL SHANNON

"LITTLE TOWN FLIRT" 1962 ORIGINAL STEREO US BIG TOP 12-1308!

MEGA-RARE US STEREO! THIS IS FAR AND AWAY THE RAREST US DEL SHANNON RECORD, MUCH HARDER TO FIND THAN THE STEREO "RUNAWAY" ALBUM, AND EVEN MORE DIFFICULT TO FIND IN NICE SHAPE SINCE THIS ALBUM IS BRILLIANT! THE TITLE TRACK ALONE SHOULD HAVE THE HOUSE ROCKIN'! ALSO, SINCE SHANNON DIDN'T HAVE A BACKLOG OF RECORDINGS, BIG TOP INCLUDED A NUMBER OF TRACKS INCLUDING "RUNAWAY" AND "HATS OFF TO LARRY" FROM THE FIRST ALBUM AS WELL.

DEL SHANNON'S SONGWRITING HAD INFLUENCE THAT REACHED AROUND THE WORLD AND ACROSS GENERATIONS AND TIME. HIS CHORD STRUCTURES AND VERSE/CHORUS/KEY CHANGES/MINOR-AUGMENTED FORMULA WAS LITERALLY STOLEN BY LENNON/McCARTNEY FOR ALL OF THEIR EARLY HITS, IN PARTICULAR "FROM ME TO YOU" WHICH SHANNON HIMSELF EVEN RECOGNIZED AS A DIRECT LIFT OFF "LITTLE TOWN FLIRT" (SHANNON RECORDED "FROM ME TO YOU" IN SUMMER 1963), BUT ALSO "PLEASE PLEASE ME", "THERE'S A PLACE", "ALL I GOTTA DO" AND MANY OTHERS FROM 1962-63. TO THIS DAY HE DOESN'T GET CREDIT FOR THE INFLUENCE HE HAD BY VIRTUE OF HIS IMPACT AS A SONGWRITER ON THE BRITISH INVASION.

THIS IS TRULY ONE OF THE RAREST OF ALL US STEREO LP'S, AND CERTAINLY THE RAREST DEL SHANNON!
