Description
A LOST JOE MEEK GEM WITH GREAT STUDIO PLAYING AND SOUNDS THAT ARE AMAZING FOR THE TIME. A SYNTH SOUNDING BASS, IN'64!!
THE LYRICS ON BOTH SIDES ARE HILARIOUS AND HAD IT HAD ANY TV COULD HAVE BEEN A HIT. THE SINGING IS GREAT BUT BECAUSE OF THE LYRICS MUST HAVE BEEN DIFFICULT TO DELIVER, SO FULL MARKS TO WHICHEVER AMALGAMATION OF LADYBIRDS OR BREAKAWAYS IT WAS ON THE TRACK.
THE "B" HAS A HEAVILY ACCENTED LEAD VOCAL WITH A CLEANER SOUND.
IT WAS RELEASED THRU DECCA IN '63 NUMBERED F.11811.
I'M AFRAID I COULD ONLY GRADE THIS ONE AS FAIR. BOTH SIDES HAVE SURFACE NOISE AND SHOW SIGNS OF MISSUSE. IT HAS NO DEEP SCRATCHES SO IT'S DOWN TO YOUR TOLLERENCE LEVELS. IT PLAYS PERFECTLY WELL AND CAN STILL BE ENJOYED.
