Shirley & Lee - Let the Good Times Roll
Imperial LP-9179 USA 1962
Sleeve: Very Good+
Vinyl : Excellent
Shirley Goodman and Leonard Lee, born just ten days apart in 1936, scored three massive R&B hits before either one of them were both 20 years old: "Feel So Good," "Let the Good Times Roll," and "I Feel Good" were all written by the talented young couple. They had one trait in common among their recordings; this New Orleans-based duo almost never sang in harmony, let alone together at all. Their contrasting male-female duet style was later influential on early ska and reggae productions from Jamaica.
In 1957, Goodman and Lee borrowed one of New Orleans' most familiar refrains and built a rocking tune around it called "Let the Good Times Roll." The recording was an instant smash and received substantial airplay, climbing up the charts in the process. It sold well-over one million copies and for more than 40 years has been a staple of oldies play lists. To date, there are over a hundred cover versions of the song, but most still prefer the original).
This 1962 Imperial album was a re-issue of the original 1956 issue on the Aladdin label. The sleeve of this copy has a 5 inch seam-split on the top, from the opening towards the center; the vinyl is in Excellent condition!
