 Part folk, part country, part rockabilly, part pop, Guy Mitchell took bits of everything going on around him. In the midst of rock 'n' roll's outburst of nationwide dominance, here was a gentler relative, more strums and whistles than frantic rhythm. As such, the song's influence was even more pronounced in England, where it was a #1 hit for both Mitchell and Tommy Steele. Steele's version helped establish him as the U.K.'s first home-grown rock star and, together with the folk-derived skiffle boom, encouraged a generation of British kids to pick up the guitar, including three Liverpudlians named Lennon, McCartney and Harrison.(M. Endsley); Produced by Mitch Miller; Guy Mitchell, vocal; Don Arnone, Allen Hanlon, Hy White, guitars; Buddy Weed, piano; Cliff Leeman, drums; Rec. New York, September 24, 1956. Columbia single 4-40769 (mx. CO 56636); Originally Released 1956  |
