Description
This collector's LP release includes Duane Eddy's sensational fourth album, Girls! Girls! Girls!. Originally issued by the Jamie label in 1961, it has been long unavailable on vinyl. All 12 tunes on the record are named after women, though the opening cut, "Brenda," stretches this a bit, since it's actually a medley of three numbers that had been hits for Brenda Lee (who posed with Eddy for one of the cover photos, as did fellow honoree Annette Funicello). Girls! Girls! Girls! consists of pop songs and standards rather than the tougher, twangy numbers that earned Eddy his first string of hits.
In addition to the original masterpiece, this essential Wax Time release includes 2 bonus tracks from the same recording sessions, which were not present on the original LP: "Bobbie" and "The Avenger."
