IN THE JAILHOUSE NOW 80-80-80-80
A Fine Jimmy Rodgers blues is warbled with
great nostalgia, with a swingy country-jazz backing moving things along.
I DON’T BELIEVE YOU’RE MINE ANY MORE 76-76-76-76
Medium tempo torcher is warbled with feeling
in an easy-rock on-the-beat performance by Duncan and group.

THE CALIFORNIA WALTZ 60-60-60-60
A pretty enough attempt for a West Coast
“Tennessee Waltz” gets a sub-par performance, as Duncan sings uncertainly and
vocal group and combo lack flavour.
GOT A LETTER FROM MY KID TODAY 40-40-40-40
Sounds like a leftover from World War 11
trotted out for any Korean business it might catch. Duncan sounds unhappy with
it, and guitar rhythm backing and vocal group are weak.

CORAL 61321
MY SON, MY SON 73
Country interpretation of the English import
fits well lyrically. But the minor modulations may rest uneasy on some rural
ears. Duncan sings the ballad sympathically.
LEAVIN’ TODAY 69
Weeper with carefree lilt is presented ably by
chanter and string band.
TOMMY DUNCAN
CORAL 61391

Here’s a sad story with a lively beat. Duncan
does a persuasive vocal to the accompaniment of a strongly rhythmic string
band.

TOMMY DUNCAN
FIRE 101
DADDY LOVES MOMMYO 64
This styling of this material is reminiscent
of the records Elvis Presley is putting out; there are elements of pop,
c&w. and r&b. in cozy communication. A novel sound and a good vocal by
Duncan.
CRAZY MIXED UP KID 64
An unusual effect is obtained there by setting
rock and roll material to a flashy Latin backing. Fair to good commercial
potential.

FRANKIE-JEAN
Duncan exudes plenty of savvy and showmanship
in his reading of this folkish tale of a horse named Frankie-Jean. It‘s an
interesting bit of material,
and the lad registers strongly in his attractive presentation.

HEART TO HEART TALK ***
Listenable vocal here by Duncan with Wills and
the Playboys coming thru neatly in the backing.

Old-fashioned novelty is sung in the
old-fashioned style here.
