SONGS GO CLOTHES HAPPY This Stuff Rocks to Socks - Also Shoes, Shirts, Skirts , Shorts........ New York, March, 1958 - The singles record field apparently is on a "fetish" lyric kick right now, with a flock of new releases extolling the charms of various articles of apparel - mostly fem - and accessories.
It actually started with Carl Perkins' Blue Suede Shoes and, more recently, Black Slacks by Joe Bennett and the Sparkeltones. However, the garb-gimmick didn't take over on a large scale until the arrival of the Royal Teens' Short Shorts.
This month alone the following disks were released: Carl Perkins' Pink Pedal Pushers; Gene Summers' Straight Skirt; Six Button Benny by the Nite Riders; High School Sweater by Kenny Owens; Tommy Palms' Black Knee Socks; Leroy Van Dyke's Leather Jacket; Ted Forbe's Knee Sox; Hank Locklin's Blue Grass Skirt; The Versatones' Tight Skirt And Sweater; Chuck Willis' Hang Up My Rock And Roll Shoes; and the Rich Brothers' Blue Bow Tie.
In addition to the above-mentioned teen-ager-styled apparel titles, there are such adult-type items as Jerry Lee Lewis' Long Black Nylons; Ron Goodwin's Red Cloak; Rudy Hansen's Saddle Shoe Polka; George Peter's Chemise and Judy Wilson's Lilac Chiffon.
The accessory-title line-up includes Dwight Pullen's Sunglasses After Dark; Shaye Cogan's Blue White Diamond; Ring On A Ribbon by Tommy Leonetti; Carol Hughes' Lend Me Your Comb; and a dual-category platter, Gum Drop Shoes And Bells in Her Hair by the Gum Drops.
