Description
This quintessential LP release includes Duane Eddy's sensational second album, Especially for You, originally issued by the Jamie label in 1959, and long unavailable on vinyl. Its dozen tracks showcase a dizzy array of Eddy's instrumental styles. (Eddy's unique sound here was partly due tohis choice of very heavy-gauge guitar strings, and partly to the legendary $200 grain silo that Lee Hazlewood used as echo chamber on the LP's sessions.) The album contained just one hit, "Yep!" although "Peter Gunn" would enter the Top 40 when it was issued later in 1960.
Unlike his debut LP, it was not built around singles with a few songs to stretch it to album length. All of the songs on this second album were recorded within a single week (with the exception of the aforementioned "Yep!"). At a time when virtually all rock & roll LPs were hasty, knocked-together works, Eddymade a conscious effort to vary the program. There were slow blues ("Only Child"), pop standards (Rodgers & Hart's "Lover"), a rather long jazzy workout ("Quiniela"), original material in the mold of his hits, sax-driven R&B and poppy stuff with strings and wordless female backup vocals that sounded like themes for B-movie westerns ("Along the Navajo Trail").
In addition to the original masterpiece, this WaxTime collector's item includes bonus tracks from the same period: "Kommotion" and the rocking "Some Kinda Earthquake."
