"Despite its title, a very smart blues side, with a highly sophisticated arrangement by Jacobs. Latter, in dramatic style, highlights the appeal of the rockabilly. Unusual programming for jocks." Billboard, Apr. 20, 1957.
Bob, I can't decide whether to worry over the fact Billboard wrote that or you could come up with it so quickly! :-) Thanks for this!
This is just weird -- sounds like the proposed theme song for some 1957 tv show that never made the grade.
Hayden Thompson also recorded this for Sun. Sometimes, the Thompson recording was wrongly credited to Roy Orbison.
