    Wow! That takes me back :). It must have been around 1957 when that came out. We all loved it. :thumb:

    I remember that he followed it with Jingle Bell Rock which was eventually covered by lots of singers. The ones I can remember are Bobby Vee, Brenda Lee, Neil Diamond, Johnny Mathis, Chet Atkins and even Girls Aloud did it recently.

    Thanks for that :gnthb:

    I've just bought a 45rpm EP from America quite cheaply with both these recordings on it. It's for the "big band and standards" section of my jukebox.

    I just had to include this. It's one of the first singles I bought and is still one of my favourites. It would probably be one of my eight "Desert Island Discs"

    Originally written by Screaming Jay Hawkins in the 50s it has has been covered by numerous great artisits but I think this is the definitive version.:wink:

    I love classic rock, and other types of older music. My favourite band is Pink Floyd. I also love The Beatles, David Bowie, The Clash, Bob Dylan, ELO, Zeppelin, Hendrix, Queen, Ramones, and much more! :)

    I've just bought a near mint copy of this "Double A side" for one of my jukeboxes.
    They are both nice cheerful tunes to listen to when doing a bit of gardening down at "that end."

    I searched eBay for a few months but finally managed to find a mint copy of a 7" single. I've got it on an album, but that wan't the point.

    I've always liked this song.

    Hi lollipop,

    This is the version of that song that I bought almost 50 years ago. A completely different presentation of it. :)

    It does seem to be a song that lends itself to a woman's voice. Thank you Shiney
